Abstract. Do to the fluctuations associated with the critical region of fluids. The behavior of thermodynamic properties these can not be predicted by mean field theories. To do so, a global equation of state based on the crossover model has been used. This equation of state is formulated on the basis of comparison of selected measurements of pressure-density-temperature data, isochoric and isobaric heat capacity of fluids.The model can be applied in a wide range of temperatures and densities around the critical point for ethane and methane. It is found that the developed model represents most of the reliable experimental data accurately.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
