ABSTRACT
The viscosities of liquid mixture were theoretically calculated for 10 binary
systems containing acrylonitrile, cinnamaldehyde, 4-anisaldehyde, benzaldehyde,
benzene, ethyl formate, propyl formate, butyl formate, n-butyl acetate, toluene,
diethyl malonate, acetophenone, cyclopentanone and cyclohexanone. Six standard
correlative approaches were used for the estimation of viscosities: Grunberg-Nissan,
Heric, Ausldnder, Hind, and McAllister models. These estimations were done using
experimental data cited from literatures. Obtained results were analysed in terms of
the applied approaches and their correlating abilities were tested by calculating
standard percentage deviation, o(%). Auslzinder as well as McAlliester four body
model with three interaction parameters yielded beffer fittings compared to those of
one and two-parameter based models. I

INTRODUCTION
With the increased popularity of process and reservoir simulators, there is
always an acute need for consistent arid reliable data for viscosity calculations. The
existing models which are used for estimating viscosity of liquid mixtures can be
classified as: semi-theoretical and empirical models (Monnery et al., 1995). A
comparison of experimental data with that calculated from various theoretical models
of liquid mixtures is very useful from different points of view: i) it suggests which
model is more suitable to the characteristics of the li.quid system, ii) it may indicate
which part should be improved in the equation and iii) it may allow the identification
of some model as a convenient reference for the deviations observed (Dikio et al.,
2013). In the present investigation, theoretical viscosities of ten binary organic liquid
systems have been evaluated using six standard models and the relative merits are
discussed. These estimations are made from correlative methods involving Grunberg-
Nissan (1949), Heric (1966), Auslander (1965), Hind (1960) and McAllister models
(1960) on the basis of experimental data cited from literatures.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Many mathematical relations have been formulated to correlate dynamic

viscosities Q) and kinematic viscosities (v) of liquid mixtures considering several
chemical laws of mixing. There are various laws of mixing, which can be defined
according to the number of adjustable parameters. Thus, there are laws based on
parameters of zero, one, two, three and so forth (Pal et aL.,2002)'

---Grunberg and Nissan suggested the following relation:

lnq = xrlnr1r* xrLn4r+ x{2G12 r
Where, Gtzis an adjustable parameters.

Thus, the two-parameters Heric equation is of the following form:

!n4 : xrlnq, + xrln4 z * xtlnM, + xrlnM , -In(xrM, + xrM ,) z

+ xrx2{H r, + H rr(r, - xr)}

Where, H12and H21are the requisite adjustable parameters.

The Ausldnder equation representing binary interaction depends on three

parameters'. t

xfl, (x, * Brrxr) + *rn ,Arr(Brrxt * xz) g

.I-
,t
-
xr(x, + Brrxr)+ xrAr,(Brrxt + *r)
Thus, the single parameter Hind equation is of the following form:
7l = xtzet+ xr2n2+2xrxrne 4

Here, 4tzis an interaction parameter'

McAllister's multi-body interaction model based on theory of

absolute
reaction rates (Eyring ,1936) has been widely used to correlate kinematic viscosities,
v. The McAllister 3-body model is defined as,
5
rnv = xt, lnv, +3xlxrlnZr, +3xrx]lnzrt + x)lnvr-lnfxr + xr(M, I M r)]
M t) I 3l + 3x, xl ln[(l + 2M z I M ) I 3] + x]In(M, I M r)
+ 3xl x rln[(2 + M 2I

Whereas, the McAllister 4-body model is given by,

lnv : xl lnv, + 4x3rxrlnZrrr, + 6x"x|lnZrtr, + 4xrx)lnZrrrr+ rl{ff4 6

- ln[-r, + xr(M, I M r)]+ 4xlxrln[(3 + M, I M ) I 4]

+6xlxlln[(l+ M2IM)I2] +4x,x3rln[(1+ 3Mz I Mt)Ia]+ x!rn1l,t,Il,trl
Here 212, Zzt, Z1tz, 21122, and 22221 rcpresent the interaction parameters and Mi
is the molar mass of pure component i.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

One parameter (Grunberg-Nissan and Hind model) and two-parameters (Heric

and McAllister 3-body) and three-parameters (Ausliinder and McAllister 4-body)
equations were employed to .oo.lut. dynamic viscosities (D and kinematic
viscosities (v).Generally, a statistical measure for calculating the deviation between
the experimental and calculated values of n andv is expressed by standard percentage
deviation, o(Vo), which follows:

Fig.l. Overall o(Vo) of viscosity models tested using binary systems data.

The interaction parameters in Eqs.1-6 were obtained by the non-linear

regression analysis and the results obtained are as summarized in Table 1 and 2. The
values of overall o(%) were compared graphically in Fig.l for the applied models on
10 binary organic systems. For correlatitrg n, application of Ausldnder equation has
yielded o(Vo) ranging from 0.04 to 3.63, which is better than that of Heric equation
with o(Vo) ranging from 0.05 to 5.05. The overall o(Vo) decreases as the number of
parameter increases in equation for all studied systems. It is also to remark that the
21122 parameter in McAllister's model represents values practically intermediate
between Ztttz and 22221. The best fit for dynamic and kinematic viscosity was
obtained by using Ausldnder and McAllister 4-body equation and that the overall
o(%)s for the cases equal to 0.69 and0.75 respectively.
