In the prediction of the vapor composition in vapor-liquid equilibrium of the binary system A-B, using boiling points or total pressures as the only equilibrium data, as the concentration of A increases, the nonideality contribution of A changes, not suddenly but gradually, from total, 16/17, 6/7, 4/5, 3/4, 2/3, 1/2... to zero. In addition to the gradual nonideality contribution, by suitable addition of ΔXint to Xint and changing the distribution of the nonideality contribution with the addition, the prediction of vapor composition for systems in which the vapor pressure ratio (PA/PB is much greater than two has become possible. Some forty-two binary systems consisting of Hydrocarbon-Hydrocarbon, Alcohol-Water, Hydrocarbon-Alcohol, and other miscellaneous combinations have been studied and an improved, concise prediction method is illustrated.

Solubilities of carbon dioxide, ethylene and acetylene in some aqueous solutions containing a single salt or mixed salts are measured at I atm and 25°C by the gas volumetric method. A method of estimating gas solubility in aqueous solutions of mixed salts from the data of aqueous solutions of each salt is discussed, i.e. an additive rule for salting-out parameters is confirmed and, using this rule, solubility data in such aqueous salt solutions can be estimated from the empirical values proposed by Onda et al.
The estimated results agree well with experimental results within 2.4% as the standard deviation and they are more reliable than those of van Krevelen et al.

The second virial coefficient for pure compound is correlated as a power series of the reduced temperature. The three parameters of the equation were calculated by computer and in the calculations of second virial coefficients with all the substances investigated the errors were less than 5% over a substantially wide temperature range.
According to an assumed combination rule, the second virial cross coefficients are considered briefly.
With these second virial coefficients, an effect of the vapor-phase imperfection on vapor-liquid equilibrium has been investigated.

Quaternary vapor-liquid equilibria with ester if) cation have been formulated mathematically. First, activity coefficients have been related to liquid compositions with polynomial equations derived from the Mar gules model, and second, the parameters Bt defined in an equation of the vapor-liquid equilibrium ratio with esterification reported previously have been represented by polynomials. Both correlations are adequate to describe the behavior of the given systems.
Vapor-liquid equilibrium with reaction of the system acetic acid-ethanol-water-ethyl acetate was predicted from Wilson''s parameters obtained from binary system data only. Association equilibrium constants of dimerization and trimerization in acetic acid vapor were used to calculate modified activity coefficients, and Wilson''s parameters were determined from six binary data. The agreement of the calculated and experimental data may be considered satisfactory for the practical use to design multicomponent distillation column reactors.

To evaluate the Wilson parameters from the activity coefficients in an infinitely dilute binary solution, nomographs have been prepared which show the following features of the Wilson equation.
i. In a system of positive deviations from ideal behaviour only I set of parameters exists.
ii. In a system of negative deviations, I through 3 sets of parameters satisfy the Wilson equation. By these nomographs, the authors have evaluated the Wilson parameters for the acetone-chloroform system, which give a good representation of the data.

Simple but systematic expressions for eddy viscosity based on the available experimental results are presented and the universal velocity profile is obtained from the eddy viscosity distribution. The present analysis takes account of the Reynolds number effect on the eddy viscosity.
The friction factor based on the universal velocity profile was in good agreement with the Blasius formula, which was derived from the (1/7)-power law of the velocity profile, and was sepresented precisely by the Prandtls universal law of friction.

A new method for measuring instantaneous and local mass transfer rate is established by observing a rate of conductive heat transfer inside a solid with mass transfer by means of a thin-film resistance thermometer. The principle of the method, the instruments and the procedure are described. To verify the measuring method experimentally, we measured the rate of vaporization of an organic solvent from a porous flat plate surface into an air stream. The experimental results are in good agreement with the previously reported results in the range of the Reynolds number Re= 10
34×10
4 for laminar and turbulent boundary layers. The experimental error is estimated to be at most about ±10% and the response time to be about 10μ sec. This method may contribute a great deal to the analysis of various instantaneous phenomena in unsteady and transient states as well as in steady states.

The rate of ionic mass transfer at the limiting current density was measured in two-dimensional flows both laminar and turbulent, through a channel between a pair of ion-exchange membranes. The results obtained were independent of the properties of the membranes, because the mass transfer rate at the limiting current density was mainly controlled by the transport process through the boundary layers in the desalting cell.
For laminar flow, the experimental results showed good agreement with those of numerical analysis, in which the rate was assumed to be controlled by the boundary layers produced near the membrane surfaces. For turbulent flow, the analytical results were also brought into good agreement with the experimental results, by introducing a new concept of the "eddy migration coefficient", ε
φ, and by putting εφ≈0.0086(∈M/V>)
1.0. ∈
M is the eddy diffusivity for momentum and v is the kinematic viscosity.
According to these results, the local electric conductivity in an intensely agitatd fluid may be greater than that in a stationary solution by 5 to 10%.

The (T, X
A) reaction diagram is proposed for non-isothermal analyses of reversible solid-gas reactions based on the unreacted-core shrinking model. When an equilibrium curve, a reaction curve, and a tie-line are drawn on this diagram, the temperature and concentration at the reaction surface, which play an important role in solid-gas reactions but which have so far been calculated only by numerical computations, can easily be obtained. The reaction diagram can also elucidate how the three ratedetermining steps of chemical reaction, mass transfer, and heat transfer are interrelated in reversible processes.

Drying and thermal dehydration of gypsum in the shape of thick circular plate and sphere ware investigated, especially by using a fluidized bed to reduce the film resistance for heat transfer.
Analyzing the change of temperature profile within the gypsum sample and applying the reaction diagram proposed in the previous paper which is based on the non-isothermal analysis of unreacted-core model, the authors could successfully clarify how the transport rates of diffusion and heat transfer affect the kinetic behavior of the process. The reaction path could be drawn with temperatureconcentration coordinates on the reaction diagram.
The reverse hydration reaction was also studied, and the reaction diagram is also verified to be very useful in this process.

The selectivity change in a consecutive reactions system brought about by the deactivation of a catalyst is studied from the viewpoint of the intraparticle diffusion effect. First, by analysis based upon three types of simplified deactivation model, it is shown that the deactivation mechanism inside a catalyst particle exerts a strong influence upon the tendency of the selectivity change with deactivation through the time history of the distribution pattern of rate constants. Next, the deactivation of a nickel catalyst for the hydrogenation of acetylene is experimentally observed. The observed relations of the selectivity to the degree of deactivation well accord with one of the three models. In a detailed analysis, the micro-macro pore model proposed in previous papers
1, 2), by the authors is used as the basis of this catalytic system. The mode! is proved to be reasonable for the deactivation process also.

The electrification of spherical Pyrex beads rolling down an inclined Pyrex tube was studied with respect to its dependence upon time and humidity of the air. The time variables were the time spent by each bead in the tube, the time between successive beads in a lot of IOO beads, and the number of repeated runs of the lot over a period of several weeks. The data are in agreement with electrochemical electrification by oxidation-reduction exchange with the atmosphere, the kinetics of which is treated with respect to the measured quantities.

Variables studied were superficial steam velocities from 22.2 to III cm/sec, reflux ratios from O. I to 3.O and plate spacing from IO to 4Ocm. It was found that some of the droplets formed on the n-th tray and carried up through the n+l-th tray at a ratio f

Experimental studies of the behavior of multi-drops in a drop-layer are carried out to show how to determine the stability of a drop-layer and to compare its stability with that of a single drop at a plane liquid-liquid interface. The stability of drops in a drop-layer is defined by the average time that drops can remain in the layer, and in most cases is almost independent of the volume of drops arriving at the layer. No large difference is seen between the stabilities of a single drop and of multi-drops in a layer in the absence of stabilizing agents, but the stability of drops in a layer is far less than that of a single drop in the presence of stabilizing agents. The relation between stability and concentration of stabilizing agents is similar to that between interfacial pressure and concentration in the cases of both a single drop and of multi-drops in a layer.

A sufficient condition for the existence of a unique and stable equilibrium state of an adiabatic tubular reactor with recycle is derived from the necessary and sufficient condition for local stability presented in the previous paper
14). Furthermore, the sufficient condition is reduced to relations between recycle ratio, a, and mixing parameter, PeB. This condition requires only simple algebraic calculations to obtain the regions of existence of a unique and stable equilibrium state instead of iterative numerical integrations required in searching the regions where the necessary and sufficient condition is satisfied.
It is also shown that this condition contains the sufficient condition for the existence of a unique and stable equilibrium state of an adiabatic tubular reactor without recycle, presented by Luss and Amundson

The short-cut method of Redlich-Kister was applied to determine the critical locus of forty binary mixtures by adopting the BWR equation which was used to calculate the limiting slopes. This method was shown to be very useful for both critical temperatures and pressures. When critical volumes of components concerned are greatly different, the discrepancy between prediction and experiment becomes significant for critical pressures. In this case, the extent of agreement was successfully improved by introducing the correction factor, m, into the BWR equation.
