Abstract
A new geometric representation for the dew/bubble conditions of a special class of polydisperse fluids is used to develop series expansion representations for the location of the top of the dew/bubble and shadow curves and for an expansion around the top of the dew/bubble and shadow curves. An excellent approximation for the one-comonent van der Waals coexistence is given as a special illustration of the method.
