Abstract

The saturation pressure, pressure and density of superheated vapor of 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane (HFC-236ea, R-236ea) were studied by an isochoric piezometer within the temperature range of 294–423 K up to the pressure of 4.0 MPa. The uncertainties of temperature, pressure, and density measurements were estimated as ±20 mK, ±1.5 kPa, ±(0.1–0.2) %, and ±(0.1–0.2) %, correspondingly. The purity of studied samples was 99.68 mass %. The obtained experimental data are shown as tables and analytical equations. Coefficients of the virial state equation were calculated for R-236ea on the basis of these data.
