Energy Storage Capacities Of Reversible Liquid Phase Chemical Reactions

Abstract

The heat capacity, and thus energy storage capacity of a liquid mixture may increase due to chemical reaction. This is illustrated with methanol-butyraldehyde mixtures. The volumetric heat capacity of an equimolar n-butyraldehyde-methanol mixture would be 0.47 cal ml-1 °C-1 if no reaction occurred. The experimental value is 0.99 over the temperature range of 20 to 46°C. © 1982.
