Abstract:Two optimization approaches to correct the physical limitations of the Lee–Kesler–Plöcker equation of state for the application to long-chain hydrocarbons are presented. The quality of the approaches is evaluated by comparisons with experimental data and reference equations of state. The calculation of thermodynamic properties for alkanes up to squalane is possible with both approaches, for some of which no highly accurate fundamental equation of state is available in the literature. For the first approach, th… Show more
