Graduate Which gas model to use for dry air and N2 at 300 bar
Sorry for the misplaced question. I will remember to post them where they belong, which in this case would have been the mathematics section. I should probably read the guidelines for posting as I am new. Many thanks for answering the question despite it belonging somewhere else! I'll have a go...- peterg07

Graduate Which gas model to use for dry air and N2 at 300 bar
Sorry about not being specific enough. I want to know the pressure after a certain change of volume with no exchange of heat with the environment i.e an adiabatic process. The gas is in a cylinder doing work on a piston. Good suggestion since the compressibility factor is a empirically derived...- peterg07

Graduate Which gas model to use for dry air and N2 at 300 bar
I want to calculate the change of state for N2 and dry air at pressures above 200 bar with a max of 300 bar. Ideal gas law is not applicable at these pressures, but looking at real gas models there are several to choose from, among others: Van der Waals Redlich-Kwong Virial Bender Can someone...- peterg07

Undergrad Drag Coefficient: Does Cd Vary in Different Mediums?
Hi Is the drag coefficient for a particular object the same in different mediums? Say we have Cd = 1 in air for one object, is Cd the same for this object in water?
