a b s t r a c t Measurement on bubble-point vapor pressure, density and viscosity at several temperatures for binary mixtures tricycle [5.2.1.02.6 ] decane (JP-10), a high density fuel, and methylcyclohexane (MCH) were carried out. The correlation between vapor pressures and equilibrium temperatures of each mixture was performed and the Antoine equation parameters were given correspondingly. The experimental VLE E data were correlated with the Wilson model. From the density and viscosity data, excess volume, Vm , and viscosity deviation, , for the binary mixtures were calculated and fitted with the Redlich–Kister equation. The viscosities correlated with several semi-empirical equations were also performed. The excess molar volumes and the viscosity deviations are negative over the entire composition range. © 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
1. Introduction Tricycle [5.2.1.02.6 ] decane (JP-10) is usually used as a high density fuel for missiles and a candidate fuel for supersonic aircrafts. The increased viscosities and large C/H ratios of such high density fuels suggest that difficulties will be encountered when attempting to spray them and that the flame radiation will be much stronger than that of a conventional fuel [1–4]. In order to improve the performance of a high density fuel, hydrocarbon components with relatively high volatility and low viscosity can be selected as additives. In this work, detailed measurements are performed to understand the volatility, volumetric and viscous prosperities of binary mixtures of JP-10 and methylcyclohexane (MCH). The results are provided to give important information on the property optimization of high-energy density hydrocarbon fuels. 2. Experimental 2.1. Materials The sample of JP-10 fuel was checked by GC–MS analysis with the mass purity of 98.5%. The MCH sample with 99.2% mass purity purchased from Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Company was dried

over 0.4 nm molecular sieves and degassed by ultrasound. Binary mixtures of JP-10 and MCH were prepared by directly weighing the constituent components to ±0.0001 g using a Mettler Toledo AL204 balance. The uncertainty of mole fraction was estimated to be ±10−4 . The physical properties of JP-10 and MCH are listed in Table 1, where Tb is the normal boiling point measured by the ebulliometer, is the density measured by vibrating-tube digital densimeter and is the viscosity measured by Ubbelohde viscometer, respectively. 2.2. Vapor pressure measurement On the basis of the ebulliometry, inclined ebulliometers with pump-like stirrers were used to measure the vapor pressures. The inclined structure can reduce the effect of height of liquid and the stirring function is useful for circulation of the sample. As a result, the reflux ratio R and liquid holdup can be reduced. The vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) temperatures of a sample and a reference material (ethanol) in two separate ebulliometers were measured under the same pressure with two standard platinum resistance thermometers connected to Keithley 195A digital multimeters. The equilibrium pressures were calculated from the VLE temperatures and the vapor pressure equation of ethanol [5]. Bubble-point pressures at various temperatures for the mixtures were measured over the equilibrium pressure range from about 8 kPa to 102 kPa. The uncertainty of the pressure was estimated to be ± 0.1 kPa.

The kinematic viscosity was determined by using a Ubbelohde viscometer. The viscometer was filled with 15 mL solution and was submerged into a thermostatic bath with a resolution of 0.01 K. The flow time was measured with a stopwatch and was reproducible to be ±0.2 s. The viscometer was calibrated with twice-distilled water. Each viscosity value of the fluid was reported by averaging over three consecutive runs. The uncertainty of viscosity was within ±0.002 mPa s. s

4. Conclusion

Measurements on bubble-point vapor pressure, density and viscosity at several temperatures for binary mixtures of tricycle [5.2.1.02.6 ] decane (JP-10) and methylcyclohexane (MCH) were carried out. Correlation between vapor pressures and equilibrium temperatures of each mixture was performed and the Antoine equation parameters were given. The experimental VLE data were correlated with Wilson model. From the density and viscosity E , and viscosity deviation, , for the data, excess volume, Vm binary mixtures were calculated and fitted with the Redlich–Kister equation. The viscosities correlated with semi-empirical equations were also performed. The excess molar volumes and the viscosity deviations are negative over the entire composition range, which are mainly induced by the different structural characteristics of the components. The thermodynamic data and calculations are helpful to adjust or control the volatility, fluidity and combustibility of high-energy density hydrocarbon fuels.

i=1 E or . A are the polynomial coefficients. The where Y implies Vm i correlated results are given in Table 6, in which the tabulated standard deviation, , is defined as

where n is the number of datum points, k is the number of estimated parameters, Y is the experimental value and Ycal is the calculated value from Eq. (8). E , and the viscosity deviation, , against The excess volume, Vm the mole fraction for the investigated binary mixtures at different temperatures are shown in Fig. 5. It is observed that the excess molar volumes and the viscosity deviations are negative over the entire composition range. These excess values reflect the interactions between the molecules of JP-10 and MCH. Because both of JP-10 and MCH are nonpolar cyclic alkane compounds, the intermolecular forces between JP-10 and MCH are relatively weak and the structural characteristics of the components dominated the interactions. When the rigid and nonpolar JP-10 molecules are mixed with MCH molecules, the smaller molecules of MCH can E enter the space of JP-10 molecules and result in the negative Vm values. 3.3. Viscosity correlation Four typical semi-empirical equations [14–17] are employed to correlate the experimental viscosity data of the binary mixtures. Kendall–Monroe [14], Hind, Grunberg–Nissan and Frenkel [17] are respectively as the following equations. 1/3

+ 2x1 x2 A12
ln = x1 ln 1 + x2 ln 2 + x1 x2 A12
where A12 is an interaction parameter. The standard deviations and correlation parameters are shown in Table 7. The Grunberg–Nissan expression gives best correlation results among the four equations for the binary mixtures.

where Mi , xi , i and i are the molecular weight, mole fraction, density and viscosity of pure component i, respectively. and are the density and viscosity of the binary mixture, respectively. The excess volume or viscosity deviation as a function of composition was fitted to the Redlich–Kister type equation [13]: Y = x1 x2
