Fourteen known cubic equations of the van der Waals type, Ρ = RT/(V-b) - a(T)/(V + ubV + wb ), were evaluated through the calculations of eight properties of normal alkanes. The roles of u and w in these calculations were demonstrated. A new design proce­ dure was developed and a new relationship between u and w was suggested. 2

Design of Cubic Equations of State

The o r i g i n a l VDW, RK and C equations are not e v a l u a t e d because t h e i r poor performance on v o l u m e t r i c p r e d i c t i o n s i s known. On the o t h e r hand, the t h r e e - p a r a m e t e r RK e q u a t i o n s suggested by Adachi et a l . (3RK)(19) and by F u l l e r (F) ( 2 0 ) , and the M a r t i n Equation (21) (a v e r s i o n of the C l a u s i u s e q u a t i o n ) i n two m o d i f i e d v e r s i o n s W C (Adachi et a l . (19)) and KMC (Kubic (22)) are c o n s i d e r e d . Thus, a t o t a l of f o u r t e e n c u b i c equations are e v a l u a t e d i n t h i s work. Among these e q u a t i o n s , the RK e q u a t i o n i s one of the most s u c c e s s f u l two-parameter c u b i c e q u a t i o n s . In the SRK e q u a t i o n , Soave made an e f f o r t i n 1972 t o c l o s e l y reproduce vapor p r e s s u r e s of pure compounds by assuming the parameter " a " of the o r i g i n a l e q u a t i o n t o be temperature dependent. This m o d i f i c a t i o n enhanced t h e a p p l i c a b i l i t y of the RK e q u a t i o n f o r c a l c u l a t i n g VLE v a l u e s . Many of the equations which have subsequently appeared i n t h e l i t e r a t u r e have adopted the same or s i m i l a r m o d i f i c a t i o n s . As f a r as the r e p r e s e n t a t i o n of v o l u m e t r i c data f o r pure f l u i d s i s c o n c e r n e d , M a r t i n (21) concludes t h a t the C l a u s i u s - t y p e e q u a t i o n i s the best of the s i m p l e r c u b i c e q u a t i o n s . However, the c a l c u l a t i o n of v o l u m e t r i c p r o p e r t i e s at s a t u r a t i o n c o n d i t i o n s w i t h o u t c o n s i d e r i n g the e q u a l i t y of f u g a c i t y at the same time as a p p l i e d by M a r t i n c o u l d i n t r o d u c e i n t e r n a l i n c o n s i s t e n c y i n the c a l c u l a t e d v a l u e s . As mentioned above, the C l a u s i u s e q u a t i o n can be o b t a i n e d from a volume t r a n s l a t i o n of the VDW e q u a t i o n . I t i s d i f f i c u l t t o envisage t h a t the volume t r a n s l a t e d VDW e q u a t i o n i s s u p e r i o r t o the v o l u m e - t r a n s l a t e d RK e q u a t i o n (TSRK). A comparison of the c a l c u l a t e d r e s u l t s i s d e f i n i t e l y of i n t e r e s t . It should be mentioned t h a t i n the two m o d i f i e d v e r s i o n s of the M a r t i n e q u a t i o n , MMC (19) and KMC ( 2 2 ) , the parameter " a " of Equation 1 was t r e a t e d as temperature dependent. Parameters o t h e r than " a " of Equation 1 have been assumed t o be temperature dependent i n some c u b i c e q u a t i o n s . For example, the H e q u a t i o n c o n t a i n s t h r e e parameters, two of which are assumed t o be temperature dependent. It i s d e s i g n a t e d i n t h i s work as a 3P2T e q u a t i o n . The o t h e r equations are s i m i l a r l y d e s i g n a t e d . The i n v e s t i g a t e d equations of s t a t e are thus grouped i n t o s i x types as shown i n Table I. The r e l a t i o n s h i p s between u and w f o r these e q u a t i o n s , the parameters which are t r e a t e d temperature dependent as w e l l as t h e p r o p e r t i e s (other than T and P ) used t o determine the paramet e r s of these e q u a t i o n s are a l s o presented i n Table I. In the t a b l e , the two-parameter e q u a t i o n proposed by Harmens (HA) (23) was a l s o i n c l u d e d , because i t s u and w r e l a t i o n s h i p formed p a r t o f the b a s i s i n the development of the SW e q u a t i o n . c

EQUATIONS OF STATE: THEORIES AND APPLICATIONS

Should the parameters of a two-parameter e q u a t i o n be t r e a t e d temperature dependent up t o the c r i t i c a l p o i n t by a f o r c e d f i t t i n g p r o c e d u r e , the s e l e c t i o n of p and V would be d e s i r a b l e f o r t h i s purpose. However, such an equation can no l o n g e r s a t i s f y both Equations 2 and 3. In o t h e r words, the r e p r e s e n t a t i o n of the c r i t i ­ c a l i s o t h e r m i n the c r i t i c a l region cannot be s a t i s f a c t o r y . Although a 3P2T e q u a t i o n (having the f l e x i b i l i t y of o b t a i n i n g substance-dependent ζ v a l u e s ) might overcome t h i s d i f f i c u l t y , two such e q u a t i o n s were e v a l u a t e d i n t h i s work, Η and KMC, and both e q u a t i o n s y i e l d e d poorer o v e r a l l performance than the e v a l u a t e d 3P1T equations. Hence, a f u r t h e r examination of the l i m i t a t i o n s and b e h a v i o r of 3P1T c u b i c e q u a t i o n s of s t a t e would be u s e f u l i n t h e d e s i g n of new c u b i c e q u a t i o n s . A l l c u b i c equations of s t a t e s u f f e r c e r t a i n s h o r t c o m i n g s . As d i s c u s s e d above, no e q u a t i o n e v a l u a t e d c o u l d s a t i s f a c t o r i l y r e p r e ­ sent a l l the e i g h t p h y s i c a l p r o p e r t i e s s i m u l t a n e o u s l y . I f one f o r c e s an e q u a t i o n t o p r o v i d e a c c e p t a b l e Β v a l u e s , such as the KMC e q u a t i o n , l a r g e r d e v i a t i o n s would occur i n o t h e r p r e d i c t i o n s , such as the V* and Z* v a l u e s . On the o t h e r hand, i f one i g n o r e s the r e p r e s e n t a t i o n of B, t h e r e i s a chance of o b t a i n i n g an e q u a t i o n which can s i m u l t a n e o u s l y p r o v i d e p r e d i c t i o n s of the o t h e r seven p h y s i c a l p r o p e r t i e s w i t h reasonable r e s u l t s . The parameter v a l u e s of " a " capable of p r e d i c t i n g vapor p r e s s u r e s of pure substances would i n general be s u i t a b l e f o r v a p o r - l i q u i d e q u i l i b r i u m c a l c u l a ­ t i o n s . Because some a p p r o x i m a t i o n i s i n v o l v e d i n c o r r e l a t i n g Q by means of a temperature f u n c t i o n , some d e v i a t i o n s occur i n t h e calculated p values. T h i s shortcoming i s not due t o the form of the c u b i c e q u a t i o n of s t a t e , but due t o the temperature f u n c t i o n itself. The d e v i a t i o n s i n p due t o t h i s inadequacy are shown i n Table III. T h i s inadequacy i s a l s o r e f l e c t e d i n the c a l c u l a t e d V v a l u e s . A p l o t of p and V d e v i a t i o n s as a f u n c t i o n of T would r e v e a l t h a t one d e v i a t i o n curve i s m i r r o r image of the o t h e r a l o n g t h e z e r o - d e v i a t i o n l i n e f o r the 2P1T and 3P1T e q u a t i o n s . S i n c e the d e v i a t i o n s i n the c a l c u l a t e d Z and Z v a l u e s are p r a c t i c a l l y the same among the 2P1T and 3P1T equations and these d e v i a t i o n s are of t h e l e a s t concern of t h i s s t u d y , the f o l l o w i n g d i s c u s s i o n i s m a i n l y c e n t e r e d on the d e v i a t i o n s of V * , Z* and Z P . To i l l u s t r a t e the drawbacks of e q u a t i o n s c o n t a i n i n g two temp­ e r a t u r e - d e p e n d e n t parameters, the d e v i a t i o n curves o b t a i n e d f o r the HCL and Η e q u a t i o n s are p l o t t e d as a f u n c t i o n of T i n F i g u r e 1. The c o r r e l a t i o n equations o r i g i n a l l y proposed ( 4 , 14) were used t o generate the curves f o r n-hexane. As both equations used p and V f o r d e t e r m i n i n g t h e i r parameters, they y i e l d low d e v i a t i o n s i n t h e s e two p r o p e r t i e s , even though the accuracy of the r e p r e s e n t a t i o n was l o s t somewhat i n the c o r r e l a t i o n s .
