Thermodiffusion of ternary hydrocarbon mixtures. Part 2: n-decane/isobutylbenzene/tetralin

The thermodiffusion model of Firoozabadi and co-workers as well as two correlations from the literature have been applied to five mixtures ofn-decane/isobutylbenzene/tetralin at three different temperatures. All three approaches predict the separation of n-decane and tetralin to the hot and the cold side, respectively. In three of these mixtures there is a disagreement between the Firoozabadi model and the two correlations on the direction of …
