In this work, we investigate how uncertainties in experimental input data influence the results of quantum cluster equilibrium calculations. In particular, we focus on the calculation of vaporization enthalpies and entropies of seven organic liquids, compare two computational approaches for their calculation, and investigate how these properties are affected by changes in the experimental input data. It is observed that the vaporization enthalpies and entropies show a smooth dependence on changes in the reference density and boiling point. The reference density is found to have only a small influence on the vaporization thermodynamics, whereas the boiling point has a large influence on the vaporization enthalpy but only a small influence on the vaporization entropy. Furthermore, we employed the Gauss--Hermite estimator in order to quantify the uncertainty in thermodynamic functions that stems from inaccuracies in the experimental reference data for the example of the vaporization enthalpy of (R)-butan-2-ol. We quantify the uncertainty as 30.95 · 10−3 kJ mol−1. In addition, we compare the convergence behavior and computational effort of the Gauss–Hermite estimator with the Monte Carlo approach and show the superiority of the former. Using this study, we present how uncertainty quantification can be applied to examples from theoretical chemistry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
