✦ Synopsis

Five equations of state, modified Peng-Robinson by Danesh et al. (MPR1), modified SRK equation of state by Mathias and Copeman (MSRK), Vdw11, Harmens-Knapp (HK) and modified Peng-Robinson equation of state by Ruzy (MPR2) were compared in predicting of the inversion curve of some fluids. This enable us to judge the accuracy of the results obtained from different equations of state. MSRK and HK equations of state give good prediction of the low-temperatures branch of the inversion curve and are closely matched with the experimental inversion curve. As a corollary to the present study, we have perceived that the agreement of the MPR2 and Vdw11 equations of state with the inversion curve are inadequate. We also calculated maximum inversion temperature and maximum inversion pressure for every component used in this work.
