Supercritical fluid thermodynamics from equations of state

Supercritical multicomponent fluid thermodynamics are often built from equations of state. We investigate mathematically such a construction of a Gibbsian thermodynamics compatible at low density with that of ideal gas mixtures starting from a pressure law. We further study the structure of chemical production rates obtained from nonequilibrium statistical thermodynamics. As a typical application, we consider the SoaveRedlichKwong cubic equation of state and investigate mathematically the corresponding thermodynamics. This thermodynamics is then used to study the stability of H₂O₂N₂ mixtures at high pressure and low temperature as well as to illustrate the role of nonidealities in a transcritical H₂O₂N₂ flame.
