MCSPT - A MODIFIED HARD-SPHERE 3-PARAMETER EQUATION OF STATE FOR THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF PURE COMPOUNDS
The hard sphere three - parameter equation of state(CSPT) proposed in the previous paper(Li et al. 1991) was modified by a new temperature relation for the pseudo critical compressibility xi(c) and the temperature correction factor alpha(T(r)) of the attractive parameter. Vapor pressures and saturated liquid densities of 105 pure compounds were calculated by the modified version. Results show that correlations of saturated properties at low reduced temperatures and thermodynamic properties in the vicinity of critical region were significantly improved. Furthermore, characteristic parameters of this modified version were generalized by acentric factor omega and critical compressibility Z(c) to predict saturated liquid densities of 72 polar substances and the latent heat of vaporization for 151 substances including strongly polar compounds with satisfactory results.
