gas_pure_gismr(phase, T='pore.temperature', MW='param.molecular_weight', Tb='param.boiling_temperature', Pc='param.critical_pressure', omega='param.acentric_factor')[source]#

Calculate the thermal conductivty of a pure gas using the correlation in [1]

Parameters:
  • phase (OpenPNM Phase object) – The phase object to which this model is associated (i.e. attached). This controls the length of the calculated array(s), and also provides access to other necessary properties.

  • T (str (dict key) or numeric) – Name of the dictionary key on phase containing the ndarray of temperature values, in units of [K]. If a numerical value is passed (i.e. a scalar or ndarray) it gets used directly.

  • MW (str (dict key) or numeric) – Name of the dictionary key on phase containing the ndarray of molecular weight values, in units of [g/mol]. If a numerical value is passed (i.e. a scalar or ndarray) it gets used directly.

  • Tb (str (dict key) or numeric) – Name of the dictionary key on phase containing the ndarray of boiling temperature values, in units of [K]. If a numerical value is passed (i.e. a scalar or ndarray) it gets used directly.

  • Pc (str (dict key) or numeric) – Name of the dictionary key on phase containing the ndarray of critical pressure values, in units of [Pa]. If a numerical value is passed (i.e. a scalar or ndarray) it gets used directly.

  • omega (str (dict key) or numeric) – Name of the dictionary key on phase containing the ndarray of accentric factor values, which is dimensionless. If a numerical value is passed (i.e. a scalar or ndarray) it gets used directly.
