8.1 Introduction In Chapter 7, we discussed how the thermodynamic properties of pure components of a substance could be determined and used in the four important conservation and balance equations for design of thermal systems (mass, energy, entropy, and availability). Œermal systems, however, generally involve mixtures of several substances, possibly in multiple phases. In this chapter, we will discuss the state equations, generalized thermodynamic relations, thermophysical-chemical properties of mixtures, and for species k in a mixture.
