Isothermal compressibility & Volume expansitivity

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the need for equations related to isothermal compressibility and volume expansivity specifically for refrigerants in both liquid and gaseous phases. Various online resources are suggested, including links to engineering tools and databases, although some require payment. It is recommended to explore public domain resources such as the International Critical Tables, JANAF, Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook, and other handbooks on cryogenics and HVAC for relevant data. Additionally, references to scientific literature databases like Sci. Cit, Chem. Abstracts, and Phys. Abstracts are provided for further research on refrigerant properties. The equation for the change in internal energy of gases is also mentioned, highlighting its relevance to the discussion.

I need equations for Isothermal compressibility & Volume expansitivity in terms of temperature and pressure. Please help. It is for refrigerants in both liquid but especially gaseous phase.

These all want money --- you might find useful data in the "public domain" if you hit the library --- see the International Critical Tables (you haven't said WHAT refrigerants), or JANAF, or Perry's, or odd handbooks on cryogenics, or HVAC hndbks, or hit Sci. Cit, Chem. Abstracts, Phys. Abstracts for refrigerant properties.

Thread 'Condensate rate of water for an air conditioning cooling coil'

I need to calculate the amount of water condensed from a DX cooling coil per hour given the size of the expansion coil (the total condensing surface area), the incoming air temperature, the amount of air flow from the fan, the BTU capacity of the compressor and the incoming air humidity. There are lots of condenser calculators around but they all need the air flow and incoming and outgoing humidity and then give a total volume of condensed water but I need more than that. The size of the...

Thread 'Why work is PdV and not (P+dP)dV in an isothermal process?'

Let's say we have a cylinder of volume V1 with a frictionless movable piston and some gas trapped inside with pressure P1 and temperature T1. On top of the piston lay some small pebbles that add weight and essentially create the pressure P1. Also the system is inside a reservoir of water that keeps its temperature constant at T1. The system is in equilibrium at V1, P1, T1. Now let's say i put another very small pebble on top of the piston (0,00001kg) and after some seconds the system...
