CA 2366538

The invention relates to a method and to apparatus for thermodynamic analysis of a mixture of fluids, in which the volume of a sample of a given quantity of said mixture is caused to vary step by step and in a monotonic manner, and the pressure of the sample is read at each step, the sample being stirred at each step so as to hasten the mixture reaching thermodynamic equilibrium. The sample may be stirred by applying ultrasound to said sample by means of a transducer. The sample can be contained in a bag of flexible material immersed together with the transducer in a control fluid inside a rigid container. The invention can be used to determine the bubble point of a mixture of hydrocarbons.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil destinés à l'analyse thermodynamique d'un mélange de fluides, dans lequel le volume d'un échantillon d'une quantité donnée dudit mélange est amené à varier étape par étape et de façon monotone, et la pression de l'échantillon est lue à chaque étape, l'échantillon étant agité à chaque étape, de manière que le mélange puisse atteindre rapidement un équilibre thermodynamique. Selon l'invention, l'échantillon est agité par ultrasons au moyen d'un transducteur (20). L'échantillon peut être contenu dans un sac (19) en matière flexible immergé avec le transducteur dans un fluide de commande à l'intérieur d'un récipient rigide (10). On peut utiliser l'appareil décrit par cette invention pour déterminer le point de bulle d'un mélange d'hydrocarbures.
