density, speed of sound, methyl esters (FAMEs), methyl laurate and methyl stearateAbstract
The density () and speed of sound (u) of two main components of biofuels, methyl laurate and methyl stearate, were measured at temperatures from (283 to 353) K and from (313 to 353) K at atmospheric pressure, respectively. An Anton Paar DSA 5000 М sound-speed analyzer, has been used to simultaneously measurements of the density and speed of sound of the methyl laurate and methyl stearate as the primary components of biodiesel fuel. The measured values of density and speed of sound were used to calculate other derived thermodynamic properties such as adiabatic coefficient of bulk compressibility, coefficient of thermal expansion, isothermal coefficient of bulk compressibility, isochoric and isobaric heat capacities, enthalpy and entropy difference, partial temperature derivative of enthalpy, entropy, and the partial specific volume derivatives of internal energy (internal pressure), of the methyl laurate and methyl stearate as a function of temperature. The overall uncertainties (at the 95 % confidence level) of the reference correlations of the density and speed of sound of methyl laurate and methyl stearate are 0.025 % and 0.045 %, respectively.
