Question:
Show that the Joule-Thomson coefficient, \(\mu\), is given by
\[\mu=\frac{1}{c_{p}}\left(T\left(\frac{\partial v}{\partial T}\right)_{p}-v\right)\]
Hence or otherwise show that the inversion temperature \(\left(T_{\mathrm{i}}\right)\) is
\[T_{\mathrm{i}}=\left(\frac{\partial T}{\partial v}\right)_{p} v\]
The equation of state for air may be represented by
\[p=\frac{\Re T}{v_{m}-0.0367}-\frac{1.368}{v_{m}^{2}}\]
where \(p=\) pressure (bar), \(T=\) temperature \((\mathrm{K})\), and \(v_{m}=\) molar volume \(\left(\mathrm{m}^{3} / \mathrm{kmol}\right)\).
Determine the maximum and minimum inversion temperature and the maximum inversion pressure for air.
