Abstract
Classical cubic equations of state (EoSs) cannot produce satisfactory predictions for dense-state fluids because of the missing molecular repulsion effect. This work introduces a newly developed cubic EoS of a flexible critical compressibility Zc by incorporating a repulsion term. Its α-function is redefined and capable of reliable extrapolation throughout the entire temperature range. As straightforward as the Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) EoS, all the necessary parameters of the new EoS can be determined using the critical properties (Tc, pc, vc) and acentric factors. Tested upon pure and multi-component fluids, the new EoS demonstrates superior robustness and accuracy compared to the SRK EoS.
期刊介绍:
Fluid Phase Equilibria publishes high-quality papers dealing with experimental, theoretical, and applied research related to equilibrium and transport properties of fluids, solids, and interfaces. Subjects of interest include physical/phase and chemical equilibria; equilibrium and nonequilibrium thermophysical properties; fundamental thermodynamic relations; and stability. The systems central to the journal include pure substances and mixtures of organic and inorganic materials, including polymers, biochemicals, and surfactants with sufficient characterization of composition and purity for the results to be reproduced. Alloys are of interest only when thermodynamic studies are included, purely material studies will not be considered. In all cases, authors are expected to provide physical or chemical interpretations of the results.
Experimental research can include measurements under all conditions of temperature, pressure, and composition, including critical and supercritical. Measurements are to be associated with systems and conditions of fundamental or applied interest, and may not be only a collection of routine data, such as physical property or solubility measurements at limited pressures and temperatures close to ambient, or surfactant studies focussed strictly on micellisation or micelle structure. Papers reporting common data must be accompanied by new physical insights and/or contemporary or new theory or techniques.
