A multi-density version of the thermodynamic perturbation theory for associative fluids with central force associative potential is developed. The theory is used to describe the liquid-gas phase behavior of Stochmayer fluid with different values of the dipole moment ranging from low to high. Results of the theory are in a reasonable agreement with corresponding computer simulation results in a whole range of the dipole moment values studied. Contrary to previous computer simulation findings our calculations predict the occurrence of the liquid-gas phase coexistence for the soft-sphere dipole fluid model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
