NaCl Property Package with Temperature Dependence

This package implements property relationships for an NaCl solution.

This NaCl property package:
  • supports only H2O (solvent) and NaCl (solute) components
  • supports only liquid phase
  • is formulated on a mass basis
  • is intended for non-isothermal applications
  • does not support dynamics

Relationships

Description Equation
Component mass fraction X_j = \frac{M_j}{\sum_{j} M_j}
Mass density Equation 7 in Sparrow (2003)
Volumetric flowrate Q = \frac{\sum_{j} M_j}{\rho}
Mass concentration C_j = X_j \rho
Component mole flowrate N_j = \frac{M_j}{MW_j}
Component mole fraction y_j = \frac{N_j}{\sum_{j} N_j}
Molality Cm_{NaCl} = \frac{x_{NaCl}}{(1-x_{NaCl}) MW_{NaCl}}
Solubility Equation 5 in Sparrow (2003)
Vapor Pressure Equation 6 in Sparrow (2003)
Dynamic viscosity Regressed from Zaytsev & Aseev (1992)
Thermal Conductivity Regressed from Zaytsev & Aseev (1992)
Specific Heat Capacity Regressed from Zaytsev & Aseev (1992)
Solute diffusivity Regressed from Zaytsev & Aseev (1992)
Osmotic coefficient Regressed from Pitzer et. al. (1984)
Osmotic pressure \pi = i \phi Cm_{NaCl} \rho_w R T [See note 1 below]
Specific enthalpy Equation 8 in Sparrow (2003)
Enthalpy flow H = \sum_{j} M_j \widehat{H}

Note 1: Osmotic pressure calculation uses the van 't Hoff factor (i\text{, assumed to be 2}), density of water (as a function of temperature), gas constant (R\text{, 8.314 J/mol}\text{K}) in addition to previously defined variables.

Scaling

This NaCl property package includes support for scaling, such as providing default or calculating scaling factors for almost all variables. The only variables that do not have scaling factors are the component mass flowrate and the user must set them or the user will receive a warning.

The user can specify the scaling factors for component mass flowrates with the following:

The default scaling factors are as follows:

  • 1e-2 for temperature
  • 1e-6 for pressure
  • 1e-3 for mass density
  • 1e3 for dynamic viscosity
  • 1e9 for solute diffusivity
  • 1 for the osmotic coefficient
  • 1e-5 for the specific enthalpy
  • 1e-4 for the specific heat capacity
  • 1e-5 for vapor pressure
  • 1 for thermal conductivity
  • 1 for solubility

The scaling factors for other variables can be calculated based on their relationships with the other variables with the user supplied or default scaling factors.
