“…Previously, Rigby and Prausnitz (10) used solubility measurements of water in compressed methane and nitrogen to extract interaction second virial coefficients at T = (298.15, 323, 348, and 373) K. Aoyagi et al (11) used a regression technique to extract interaction second and third virial coefficients at T = (240, 250, 260, and 270) K. Smith et al (12) have measured excess enthalpies of (water + methane) vapour. Using these excess enthalpies and assuming second virial coefficients, they also extracted interaction second virial coefficients at six temperatures ranging from T = 373.2 K to T = 423.2 K. Recently, Joffrion and Eubank (13) presented smoothed compression factors, densities, and residual thermodynamic properties for (water + methane) containing 50, 25, and 10 mole per cent of water.…”
