Viscosity of aqueous calcium chloride solutions at high temperatures and high pressures

摘要

Viscosity of six (0.10, 0.33, 0.65, 0.97, 1.40, and 2.00) mol kg(-1) binary aqueous CaCl2 solutions has been measured with a capillary-flow technique. Measurements were made at pressures up to 60 MPa. The range of temperature was from 293 to 575 K. The total uncertainty of viscosity, pressure, temperature, and composition measurements was estimated to be less than 1.6%, 0.05%, 15 mK, and 0.014%, respectively. The effect of temperature, pressure, and concentration on viscosity of binary aqueous CaCl2 Solutions was studied. The measured values of viscosity of CaCl2(aq) were compared with data, predictions, and correlations reported in the literature. The temperature and pressure coefficients of viscosity of CaCl2(aq) were studied as a function of concentration and temperature. The viscosity data have been interpreted in terms of the extended Jones-Dole equation for the relative viscosity (eta/eta(0)) to accurate calculate the values of viscosity A- and B-coefficients as a function of temperature. The derived values of the viscosity B-coefficients were compared with the values calculated from the ionic B-coefficient data. The physical meaning parameters V and E in the absolute rate theory of viscosity and hydrodynamic molar volume (effective rigid molar volume of salt) V-k were calculated using present experimental viscosity data. TTG model has been used to compare predicted values of the viscosity of CaCl2(aq) solutions with experimental values at high pressures. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
