COSMO-based models: fundamentals and LVPP tools

Presentation with fundamentals about COSMO, COSMO-RS, and COSMO-SAC.

This is the main document for the LVPP course on COSMO-based models using the JCOSMO software, covering:

  • Differences between COSMO and COSMO-RS/SAC.
  • Basic use of the JCOSMO package.
  • Sigma profiles and the LVPP-sigma profile database.
  • Explaining negative and positive deviations from the Raoult’s law.
  • Tools for the creation of sigma profiles.
  • Statistical thermodynamics introduction.
  • COSMO-SAC equations.
  • Vapor-liquid equilibrium, octanol/water partition coefficient, solid-liquid equilibrium.
  • COSMO-SAC-Phi introduction.
