Method for the Experimental Determination of the Bunsen Absorption Coefficient of Hydraulic Fluids

Abstract

A manometric-volumetric method to determine the Bunsen absorption coefficient of hydraulic fluids at high-pressures is presented. The virial equation of state is used to determine the amount of substance and its composition in the gaseous phase and at high-pressures. An error-analysis is presented for a best-case error estimate of the method.
