Brief
Ideal Gas is a concept where:
- gas is composed with molecules of negligible volume;
- interaction between the molecules is negligible.
Equation Of State
It all started with Boyle-Charles Law published in 1662 .
The Ideal Gas EOS:
Nomenclature
= mass, lbm
= molecular weight, lbm/lbmol
= number of moles 
= Pressure, psia
= universal gas constant, 10.7316 psia ft3/ lbmol/ °R
= temperature, °R
= volume, ft3
