Abstract

In order to apply an equation of state to vapor—liquid equilibrium calculations for pure components, the equation of state must satisfy the following three conditions:

$${{V}_{v,calc}}={{V}_{v}}$$
(1)
$${{V}_{L,calc}}={{V}_{L}}$$
(2)
$${{f}_{L,calc}}={{f}_{L,calc}}$$
(3)

which may be depicted by an isotherm on a PV plot as shown in Fig. la.

Paper presented at 68th National AIChE Meeting, Houston, Texas, Feb. 28–Mar.4, 1971.
