β¦ Synopsis
A method which uses computer graphics to construct pictorial views of three-dimensional thermodynamic phase diagrams is demonstrated. Pressure-volume-temperature diagrams are presented for ethylene and propylene so that quantitative comparisons can be made between the phase surfaces representing the ideal gas law, the Redlich-Kwong equation and a highly accurate, 20~constant equation of state proposed by Bender. Pictorial views of enthalpy-entropy-pressure diagrams for ethylene based solely on P-V-T relations and ideal gas heat capacities are also shown along with their Mollier projections. Interesting comparisons that confirm our understanding of equations of state are made with H-S-P diagrams that represent the properties of an ideal gas in contrast to those of a Redlich-Kwong fluid. Reference is made to earlier papers that describe the computer graphics algorithms in detail.

A general algorithm which generates all the topologically distinct, linked, non-Hartree-Fock vacuum and Greenfunction Hugenholtz-type diagrams is presented. Both the particle-hole and particle-particleGreen-functions are considered. The one-particle Green function diagrams are not treated separately
Equations of state for ethylene and propylene are given, representing the whole experimentally determined region up to 50 MPa. The twenty adjustable coefficients of the equation of state, a modified Benedict-Webb-Rubin eq ua tion o f state, ha ve been determined using recent experimental data and co
