1. Liquid-vapor balance
1.1 Diagrams
In figure 1, the AB part of the isotherm, with a temperature below the critical temperature, corresponds to the vapour phase, which behaves like a perfect gas at low pressure. The near-vertical DE section corresponds to the liquid phase, whose compressibility is very low except when approaching critical point C. The horizontal line BD constitutes the liquefaction stage. At B, saturated vapor is in equilibrium with a drop...
