    Calculation of isentropic exponent for real gases

    First of all, thanks to everybody who responded, gained some valuable input here. My choice for LKP is based on a recommendation made by Lüdtke, "Process Centrifugal Compressors", 1st Ed., 2004. It just says that RKS is not recommended for CO2 in a pressure range up to 200 bar (about 2900...

    Calculation of isentropic exponent for real gases

    Hi there, I am doing some calculations on compression of co2 and therefore I need the isentropic volume exponent (kappa_p,v) and the isentropic temperature exponent (kappa_T,p) for a real gas. These are defined as following (in "Thermodynamic Correlations, k-Exponents, Speed of Sound, and COP...
