Abstract

Over the last decade, numerous working fluids comprising water and ionic liquid displayed performances close to that of the conventional fluids in absorption heat transformers. The main objective of this work is to determine the thermodynamic properties of {tricyanomethanide based IL + water} mixtures, which are required for simulations in such processes. To do so, isothermal vapor–liquid equilibria (VLE), densities, excess enthalpies and heat capacities of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tricyanomethanide [BMIM][TCM], 1-butyl-4-methylpyridinium tricyanomethanide [BMPY][TCM] and 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium tricyanomethanide [BMPyr][TCM] with water (H2O) were measured in a large range of temperatures. Excess properties were correlated using the Redlich–Kister equation. This work also aims at confronting models that do not require experimental data, to predict fluids behavior, namely COSMO-SAC and COSMO-RS, and the classical thermodynamic model NRTL.
