Abstract:
The thermodynamic properties of semiclassical hard-body fluid mixtures are studied. Explicit expressions are given for the free-energy, equation of state and virial coefficients of the classical hard convex-body fluid mixtures. The numerical results are discussed under different conditions. The agreement with the exact data is good in all cases. The first-order quantum corrections are also studied. The quantum effects depend on the condition, shape parameters L11* and L22*, and concentrations x1 and x2 in general and increase with an increase of packing fraction eta, in particular.
