Abstract

Specific volumes and isobaric heat capacity measurements are reported for n-hexane. The measurements were made in the liquid and vapor phases at temperatures from the triple point and also cover a wide region around the critical point. The thermal, caloric, and acoustic data from our own investigation as well as those of a number of other authors are fitted to a single equation of state with 32 constants. This equation yields to all thermodynamic properties of n-hexane in the temperature range 180 to 630 K and pressures up to 100 MPa. The data in the critical region have been analyzed in terms of a scaled equation of state.
