Measurements of Gaseous Pressure-Volume-Temperature Properties for Ethyl Fluoride Xiaoming Zhao,* Guanghua Zhang, and Yu Liu MOE Key Laboratory of Thermo-Fluid Science and Engineering, Xi’an Jiaotong University, Xi’an, Shaanxi 710049, China ABSTRACT: In this paper, the gaseous pressure-volume-temperature properties of ethyl fluoride (HFC-161) were studied over a temperature range from 278 to 378 K and pressures from 135.08 to 4235.22 kPa. A total of 132 data points were acquired using the Burnett isochoric method. The standard uncertainties for temperature and pressure were estimated to be less than 8 mK and 0.7 kPa, respectively. The experimental data were correlated with a virial-type equation of state. The comparisons were carried out between the present data and literature values. In addition, the saturated vapor densities of HFC-161 were derived on the basis of the experimental data.

1. INTRODUCTION The Montreal Protocol established a schedule to phase out the use of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) due to their adverse impact on the Earth’s ozone. Ethyl fluoride (HFC-161) is considered an environmentally friendly alternative refrigerant for its zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and very low global warming potential (GWP). It is also regarded as a component of some newly proposed mixtures to replace R134a, R410A, and R502A.1−3 The thermodynamic properties for HFC-161 were limited until 1999.4−6 Our research team has determined some thermophysical properties of HFC-161 in recent years.7−12 However, few studies have been published on the pressurevolume-temperature (PVT) properties of HFC-161 in vapor phase in addition to that by Chen.13 Chen et al. obtained PVT properties in vapor phase covering a temperature range from 300 to 370 K at pressures from 642 to 3900 kPa. To the author’s knowledge, gaseous PVT properties of HFC-161 in a wide temperature and pressure range are still insufficient. For this reason, PVT measurements were performed for HFC-161 at temperatures ranging from 278.383 to 378.016 K and pressures from 135.08 to 4235.22 kPa by means of a Burnett isochoric technique.

main container and the expansion one were approximately 600 and 300 mL, respectively, and the wall thickness of two cells was 10 mm. The temperature measurement system consisted of a platinum resistance thermometer and a data acquisition unit (Keithley 2000). The thermometer was powered by a highresolution DC power supply (Keithley 2400 sourcemeter); the temperature measurement system includes a standard platinum resistance thermometer (Model: WRPR-T1, No. 92822, Kunming Dafang Instruments Co. Ltd., China). The thermometer was calibrated by ITS-90. The uncertainty of the thermometer is 5 mK; the temperature fluctuation in the bath was controlled within 5 mK, and the uncertainty in the temperature measurement was estimated to be less than 8 mK. The pressure measurement system included a differential pressure transducer (Rosemount 3051) with an accuracy of 0.075% FS and a high-precision pressure sensor (Paroscientific 31K-101) with an accuracy of 0.01% FS. We used nitrogen gas as the transfer medium in the transducer. The total uncertainty of the pressure measurement was less than 0.7 kPa. After the thermal equilibrium between the sample and the thermostatic bath was reached and the pressure stayed constant, the temperature and pressure of the sample were measured by the thermometer and the pressure measurement system, respectively. 2.2. Experimental Method. The Burnett isochoric method14−17 was used to measure the gaseous PVT properties of HFC-161. By applying this method, gaseous PVT properties can be acquired in a wide temperature range with high precision. The Burnett isochoric method adopted in this study was similar to that in the literature.18 A schematic diagram of the experimental system for gaseous PVT properties is shown

2. EXPERIMENTAL SECTION 2.1. Apparatus. A high-precision experimental system for gaseous PVT properties was developed in this study. It mainly included a Burnett apparatus, a temperature measurement system, a pressure measurement system, a high-accuracy thermostatic bath, and a vacuum system, as illustrated in Figure 1. Silicone oil was used in the thermostatic bath as the bath fluid at temperatures ranging from 210 to 420 K. The Burnett apparatus was composed of two cylindrical cells (A and B) made of 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel: A was the main container and B was the expansion container.

in Figure 1. The process is as follows. The whole apparatus was evacuated by the vacuum pump. Then, a target amount of HFC161 was charged into the main cell A. The temperature and pressure of the sample in cell A were measured. This was the first point of the Burnett isochoric P-T plane. We needed to ensure the initial state of HFC-161 charged in the main cell was near the saturated vapor phase. The sample was introduced into the main cell, and the thermostatic bath was controlled at the target temperature. After the thermal equilibrium between the sample fluid and thermostatic bath was reached, the pressure of the sample was measured. Then, the apparatus was cooled to the next object temperature along the isochore, and the pressure was obtained after the thermal equilibrium was established between the sample and the thermostatic bath. The apparatus temperature then increased to the initial temperature. Next, the first Burnett expansion was conducted. Expansion container B was evacuated by the vacuum pump to ensure the system vacuum was better than 0.1 Pa. Then, the fluid was introduced into cell B, and the temperature and pressure measurements of the sample in cell A were obtained when the thermal equilibrium was achieved. This formed the first point of the second isochore. Then, the system was cooled to the next desired temperature along the isochore, and the corresponding pressures were measured. The expansion isochoric procedures mentioned above were repeated, and experimental results were recorded along a series of pressures incrementing at 5 K.

separate Burnett expansions of helium (99.999 wt %) were carried out at 324.5K to obtain the volume constant, and the value of N was determined to be 1.5037 by the least-squares method. The experimental density data of helium were compared with the literature values.19,20 The maximum absolute deviation (MAD) was 0.065%, and the average absolute deviation (AAD) was 0.026%, which indicated the reliability and accuracy of the experimental system. The Burnett expansion results of helium are shown in Table 2. 3.3. Experimental Results of HFC-161. Two Burnett isochoric experiments on HFC-161 were conducted. A total of 132 data points were obtained in the temperature range from 278.383 to 378.016 K and pressures from 135.08 to 4235.22 kPa, as shown in Table 3, where Z represents the Table 2.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1. Chemicals. The sample of ethyl fluoride was provided by Zhejiang Lantian Environmental Protection Hi-tech Co. Ltd., and the stated mass fraction purity was better than 99.95%. For the effects of impurities to be eliminated, the sample was purified several times by liquefying the sample with liquid nitrogen. The samples of ethyl fluoride and helium used in this paper are described in Table 1. 3.2. Calibration of Volume Constant N. Volume constant N is indispensable for calculating compressibility factor Z. It is defined as the ratio of the total volume of two containers to the volume of the main container. Because both cells were made of the same material, N is only independent of temperature. The effect of pressure variation on the cell volume can also be neglected when the pressure is below 6 MPa.

Gaseous PVT properties at temperatures below 300 K were first reported in this work. To represent the experimental PVT data in the gas phase of HFC161, a virial-type equation of state was established on the basis of this study, the equation is expressed as p = 1 + Bρ + Cρ2 + Dρ3 ρRT

saturated vapor densities reported by Chen are applicable in the temperature range from 290 to 360 K, the proposed equation extended the temperature range for calculating the densities of the saturated vapor of HFC161.

4. CONCLUSIONS In this study, a high-accuracy experimental measurement system using the Burnett isochoric method was established to measure the gaseous PVT property measurements of HFC-161. A total of 139 data points in the temperature range from 278 to 378 K and pressure range from 135.08 to 4235.22 kPa were obtained along 21 isotherms. A virial-type equation of state for HFC-161 was correlated to reproduce the experimental data with an average absolute deviation of 0.21% in pressure and 0.23% in density. In addition, the saturated vapor densities were also derived at temperatures ranging from 283 to 368 K, and an empirical equation was used to represent the saturated vapor densities with an average absolute deviation of 0.28%.
