✦ Synopsis

The development of a new two-constant equation of state in which the attractive pressure term of the semiempirical van der Waals equation has been modified is outlined. Examples of the use of the equation for predicting the vapor pressure and volumetric behavior of singie-component systems, and the phase behavior and volumetric behavior of binary, ternary, and multicomponent systems are given. The proposed equation combines simplicity and accuracy. It performs as well as or better than the Soave-Redlich-Kwong equation in all cases tested and shows its greatest advantages in the prediction of liquid phase densities.
