Measurements of Vapor Pressure and Saturated Liquid Density for HFO−1234ze(E) and HFO−1234ze(Z) Tanaka Katsuyuki* Department of Precision Machinery Engineering, Nihon University, Funabashi, Chiba 274−8501, Japan ABSTRACT: Vapor pressure and saturated liquid density for HFO−1234ze(E) and HFO−1234ze(Z) were measured in the temperature range from 300 to 400 K by using the extraction method. Experimental uncertainties are estimated to be 0.028 K for temperature, 0.4 kPa for pressure, and 0.9 kg·m−3 for density. Vapor pressures were obtained in the pressure range from 526 to 3462 kPa for HFO−1234ze(E) and from 185 to 2309 kPa for HFO−1234ze(Z). Saturated liquid densities were obtained in the density range from 670 to 1158 kg·m−3 for HFO−1234ze(E) and from 843 to 1220 kg·m−3 for HFO− 1234ze(Z). These data are compared with the existing equations of state.

INTRODUCTION HFO−1234ze(E) (trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene) and HFO−1234ze(Z) (cis-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoro-propene) are candidates as low Global Warming Potential (GWP) substances. HFO−1234ze(E), whose normal boiling point is about 254 K, can be substituted for HFC−152a, which is used as a blowing agent. HFO−1234ze(Z), whose normal boiling point is about 283 K, can be substituted for HFC−245fa, which is used as a refrigerant in high-temperature heat pump systems or as working fluids for organic Rankine cycle system. Thermophysical properties of HFO−1234ze(E) and HFO−1234ze(Z) can be calculated by REFProp1 using equations of state developed by Lemmon et al.2 for HFO−1234ze(E) and by Akasaka et al.3 for HFO−1234ze(Z). However, the experimental data used for developing equations of state was few. In this work, to compensate for the lack of data for thermophysical properties of HFO−1234ze(E) and HFO− 1234ze(Z), vapor pressures and saturated liquid densities were measured by the extraction method. These data are compared with the existing equations of state.
Table 1. Sample Information
EXPERIMENTAL SECTION Sample. The sample of HFO−1234ze(E) produced by Honeywell International Inc. was used. The sample of HFO− 1234ze(Z) was supplied by Central Grass Co., Ltd., Japan. The sample information is listed in Table 1. The sample was degassed two or three times by freeze−thaw cycling with liquid nitrogen before it was loaded into the cell of the apparatus. No further purification was done. Apparatus. The apparatus for measuring the vapor pressure and saturated liquid density was developed based on the extraction method and results for HFC-245fa were already obtained in a previous publication.4 The schematic diagram of the apparatus is shown in Figure 1. The apparatus has two cells

used. The valve is equipped between these cells and the pressure sensor is installed in a main cell to measure vapor pressure. The pressure sensor (Kulite: XTEL-190M-70BA) was used and calibrated by the calibrator (Fluke: 717-1000G) with the uncertainty of 0.3 kPa. The principle of the extraction method for measuring vapor pressure and saturated liquid density is shown in Figure 2. The sample is filled in the main

cell as shown in Figure 2a, and then the subcell was vacuumed. As shown in Figure 2b, the saturated liquid is filled in the subcell by opening the valve 1. After closing the valve 1, the sample in the subcell was recovered to the recovery cell using liquid nitrogen as shown in Figure 2c. The mass of the sample in the subcell was determined by measuring the recovery cell before and after recovering the sample. Saturated liquid density can be obtained from the mass of recovered sample and inner volume of the subcell. The volume of the subcell considering its temperature dependence was determined in advance using HFC-134a. The experimental uncertainty of temperature is estimated to be 0.028 K because the uncertainty of the thermometer from the manufacture is 0.026 K and maximum temperature fluctuation is 0.01 K. The experimental uncertainty of pressure is estimated to be 0.4 kPa because the uncertainty of the calibrator from the manufacture is 0.1 kPa and maximum deviation of calibration is 0.3 kPa. The experimental uncertainty of density is calculated using eq 1 and estimated to be 0.9 kg· m−3 because the uncertainty of the sample mass is 1.4 mg against to the maximum sample mass of 3.913 g and the uncertainty of the inner volume of the cell is 0.00024 cm3 against to the maximum inner volume of 3.2254 cm3.

The data in this work are in good agreement above 330 K, however their deviations below 320 K become larger to be −1.5% at 300 K. At low temperature, there is only two data sets by Fedel et al. and this work. So additional data at low temperature is expected to be reported.

good agreement within about 0.1% to existing equations of state. As for HFO−1234ze(Z), and 22 data in the temperature range from 300 to 400 K were obtained and are in good agreement with remaining improvements of the existing equations of state. These data compensate for the lack of data for HFO−1234ze(E) and HFO−1234ze(Z) and can be used for improvements of the equations of state.
