constant value. The lab tech was responsible for setting all the initial values used in the lab, and
he helped supervise everything that was done in the lab.
For group 1, the bubble point was attained at a pressure of 903.63 psi, and the gaseous as
well as liquid volumes of CO2 were 0.002 cc and 13.215 cc respectively. The dew point was
attained at the same pressure, and the gaseous as well as liquid volumes of CO2 were37.595 c
and 0.002 cc respectively. For group 3, the bubble point was attained at a pressure of 935.33 psi,
and the gaseous as well as liquid volumes of CO2 were 0.001 cc and 13.564 cc respectively. The
dew point was attained at the same pressure, and the gaseous as well as liquid volumes of CO2
were 34.521cc and 0.002 cc respectively. For group 9, the bubble point was attained at a pressure
of 967.85 psi, and the gaseous as well as liquid volumes of CO2 were 0.002 cc and 14.034 cc
respectively. The dew point was achieved at the same pressure, and the gaseous as well as liquid
volumes of CO2 were 31.466cc and 0.002 cc respectively
Theory, Concepts, and Objective of the Experiment
The core aim of this exercise was to familiarize students with the utilization of a PVT stimulator
for the determination of fluid characteristics under varying pressure, temperature, and volume
conditions. Many tests were done in this lab alongside the determination of the bubble point of
CO2 while looking into it that the dew point temperature was maintained. The Peng-Robinson
equation shown below was utilized for the attainment of the pure CO2 characteristics.
