Abstract:This paper introduces a facile technique for the calculation of the thermodynamic properties of a gas across a porous membrane. The calculation assumes that the gas undergoes temperature-driven isobaric condensation, pressure-driven isothermal expansion and temperature-driven isobaric evaporation. The gas is in a disordered and chaotic state in all the three processes as a result of the kinetic energy by the driving forces. A zero entropy value is achievable at a remote distance from the membrane after desorpt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
