Abstract
The vapor pressure equation is an effective tool for describing the pressure-temperature relationship along the liquid-vapor coexistence curve. However, most existing equations are merely used to correlate experimental data, but lack reliability when extrapolating beyond the experimental temperature range. Based on the thermodynamic characteristics of vapor pressure, this study summarizes the mathematical constraints of vapor pressure equation, and proposes a new, accurate and reliable vapor pressure equation with four fitting parameters for the correlation and extrapolation of experimental data. The new equation is compared with the Park equation and Wagner equation in terms of correlation and extrapolation performance using experimental data of 62 fluids from the triple point to the critical point. Results show that the new equation matches or slightly outperforms the Park equation and Wagner equation in correlation accuracy, while it has more regular fitting parameters. In terms of extrapolation, the new equation significantly outperforms the Park equation and Wagner equation without parameter constraints, especially towards low-temperature and low-pressure region. And the new equation presents stable extrapolation across different data ranges, achieving a balance between correlation accuracy and extrapolation ability through rigorously validated function forms and reasonably set fitting parameters.
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.
