    Notes: We present homogeneous nucleation rates in the binary mixture n-nonane/methane in the supercritical regime, measured in a new pulse expansion tube at pressures up to 40 bar, at a temperature of 240 K. It is shown that both n-nonane and methane are present in the critical cluster. The critical supersaturation of n-nonane decreases from 30 at 10 bar, down to 6 at 40 bar total pressure. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A thermodynamic model of the formation free energy of a droplet, based on a real equation of state, has been implemented in the binary classical nucleation theory to analyze homogeneous nucleation of mixtures of n-nonane and methane in the coexistence region at high pressures. The composition of the critical nucleus is computed by solving the Kelvin equations, the chemical potentials, and molar volumes being evaluated from the Redlich–Kwong–Soave equation of state. Real gas behavior appears to have a strong effect on nucleation due to mutual interactions between methane and nonane molecules. Numerical calculations show an increasing concentration of methane in critical clusters with increasing pressure at fixed temperature and supersaturation. As a consequence, the surface tension of the critical droplets, which is evaluated by means of the Parachor method, is lowered, having a strong increasing effect on the nucleation rate; a 10 bar increase of total pressure leads to an increase of the nucleation rate of several orders of magnitude. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract  The design and performance of a new pulse-expansion wave tube for nucleation studies at high pressures are described. The pulse-expansion wave tube is a special shock tube in which a nucleation pulse is formed at the endwall of the high pressure section. The nucleation pulse is due to reflections of the initial shock wave at a local widening situated in the low pressure section at a short distance from the diaphragm. The nucleation pulse has a duration of the order of 200 μs, while nucleation pressures that can be achieved range from 1 to 50 bar total pressure. Droplet size and droplet number density can accurately be determined by a 90°-Mie light scattering method and a light extinction method. The range of nucleation rates that can be measured is 108 cm-3 s-1〈J〈1011 cm-3 s-1. We will illustrate the functioning and possibilities of the new pulse-expansion wave tube by nucleation rate measurements in the gas-vapour mixture nitrogen/water in the temperature range 200–260 K, and in the mixture methane/n-nonane as a function of supersaturation S at various total pressures up to 40 bar and temperatures around 240 K.

    Notes: Abstract A modified expansion-shock tube for nucleation and condensation studies in a supersaturated vapour is described. An analysis is made of the gas-dynamical properties of the new tube configuration and numerical simulations with the Random Choice Method are compared with experiments. It is shown that with the modified configuration one single nucleation pulse can be realized.
