| dc.description.abstract | A thermodynamic framework is developed for calculating the cloud point also known as WAT (Wax Appearance Temperature) or WDT (Wax Disappearance Temperature) in petroleum mixtures. The method involves the use of experimental data to generate a correction’s correlation for the liquid molar volume shift parameter during liquid-solid equilibrium. Application of the method to the five ternary systems with the 72 equilibrium data points gives an AAD (Absolute Average Deviation) between 0.843 – 0.979. Also, the method gives a better performance in re-producing the experimental cloud point for real petroleum fluids. Its use is simple, accurate and has wide range of validity. | en_US |
