This dichotomy underlies the standard decomposition of the Gibbs free energy, yet it obscures the geometric commonality of the mechanisms that produce both terms. Here, we develop a geometric–statistical reformulation of thermodynamic forces in coarse-grained landscapes in which coarse-grained variables evolve on a configuration manifold whose structure encodes the accessible microstates of the system. In isolated systems, this manifold exhibits a degeneracy of free-energy minima corresponding to a Mexican-hat landscape, reflecting maximal entropic freedom along continuous families of equivalent configurations. Coupling to an external environment lifts this degeneracy and deforms the manifold into a thermodynamic paraboloid, whose curvature quantifies the unified thermodynamic stiffness governing system response.

As a direct consequence, the well-known enthalpy–entropy compensation phenomenon emerges whenever the curvature of the configuration manifold remains invariant with temperature. This perspective reframes enthalpy and entropy as complementary geometric expressions of the same coarse-grained configuration-space structure.

In this context, the present work extends a semi-empirical methodology previously proposed by the authors, aiming to address the challenge introduced by newly developed reactive fluids for which experimental data are unavailable. The methodology presented in this work requires only the critical-point properties and acentric factor of the molecules participating in the chemical reaction.

This work, however, applies a simplification to the force fields used in Monte Carlo simulations consisting in employing single-particle force fields instead of all-atom models. This strategy decreases the amount of experimental data required to parametrise the force field of each molecule contained in the reactive mixture, and allows the use of the same inputs in equation of state modelling and Monte Carlo simulations (i.e., molecular critical parameters). Indeed, this work proposes to calculate force field parameters using either the critical temperature and pressure, or the critical temperature and density of each molecule.

This work presents a comprehensive thermodynamic study of pure formic acid and its mixtures using the SAFT-VR Mie doubly bonded dimer (DBD) equation of state. The pure component parameters of formic acid were optimized against vapor pressures, liquid densities, and vaporization enthalpies, achieving an excellent description of the experimental data. Binary interaction parameters were adjusted for formic acid mixtures with water, CO₂, and acetic acid, and an accurate description of vapor-liquid equilibria and excess enthalpies is obtained. The model was applied to simulate high-temperature heat pumps and Rankine cycles using carboxylic acids as working fluids. It is found that formic and acetic acids exhibit higher coefficients of performance than conventional refrigerants at elevated temperatures, but face significant practical constraints including corrosion issues, limited temperature range, low operating pressures, and large volumetric flow rates. An integrated process for high-grade formic acid production via CO₂ electrochemical reduction is simulated, combining three-compartment electrolysis cells with pressure-swing distillation for product purification. Energy integration using a formic acid heat pump to supply the distillation reboiler duty reduces the overall electricity consumption of the process making it viable in terms of operating cost.

Among them, the Peng-Robinson (PR) equation of state provides a well-established balance between accuracy in volumetric and phase-equilibrium predictions. Improvements to PR have primarily focused on two aspects: the temperature-dependent attractive term (α-function) and volume translation. While modifications of the α-function have been extensively investigated for their impact on vapor-pressure correlations and derivative properties, volume translation has largely been assessed only in terms of liquid-density predictions. In this work a consistent framework is developed to evaluate both modifications simultaneously by deriving a generalized set of Helmholtz free energy expressions and their derivatives, rigorously incorporating volume translation. First, the new formulation is presented and mathematically validated. Next, a systematic analysis is performed using several α-functions of various temperature dependencies, for the prediction of vapor pressures, isobaric and isochoric heat capacities. Overall, the Mathias-Copeman PR model provides the most accurate results for vapor pressures and isobaric heat capacities, while underperforming in isochoric heat capacities. Additionally, multiple temperature-independent and temperature-dependent volume translations are assessed against experimental saturated liquid densities, with the most reliable formulations identified. These are subsequently coupled with the Mathias Copeman α-function and the original Soave form and benchmarked against derivative-property data. The results show that combining this α-function with a linear temperature-dependent volume translation significantly enhances the predictive capability of the Peng-Robinson equation, particularly for volumetric and derivative properties.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12170,"journal":{"name":"Fluid Phase Equilibria","volume":"606 ","pages":"Article 114689"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146192686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
