The excess molar enthalpies H", of (xN20+(1-x)C,H,,) were measured in the liquid and supexcritical region covering the whole concentration range. Mixtures at 308.15 K and 7.64, 9.48 and 12.27 MPa show moderately endothermic and exothermic mixing in the heptane-rich region and nitrous oxide-rich region, respectively. The exothermic-mixing region is confiied to a smaller range of x as pressure increases and disappears completely at 308.15 K and 15.00 MPa. Mixtures at 318.15 K and 7.64 and 9.48 MPa show very exothermic mixing. Mixtures at 318.15 K and 12.27 and 15.00 MPa show moderately endothermic and exothermic mixing in the heptane-rich region and nitrous oxide-rich region, respectively. The changes observed in the excess enthalpy with temperature and pressure are discussed in terms of liquid-vapor equilibrium and critical constants for nitrous oxide-heptane. Excess enthalpies for nitrous oxide-heptane mixtures are also calculated by means of the Peng-Robinson equation of state and the resulting H", values are compared with experiment.
