Abstract

A set of simple equations of the thermodynamic and transport properties of the combustion gases of a gas turbine have been derived based upon the critically evaluated data and two equations of state: The virial equation of state and Peng-Robinson (PR) equation of state. The properties which have been considered were, density, specific heat at constant pressure, enthalpy, entropy, viscosity and thermal conductivity. The temperature range was (200-2600 K) theoretically while the pressure range was (0.3-1.2 MPa). A computer program, to evaluate the departure of thermophysical properties using virial and PR equations of state, was used. The Peng Robinson (PR) equation of state gave better estimated accuracy than the virial equation of state especially in evaluating the departure of thermodynamic properties.
