Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium
(VLE) data are presented
for binary systems of perfluoroethane with either n-perfluorohexane or n-perfluorooctane. The measurements
were performed at five temperatures ranging from (272.80 to 312.92)
K for the perfluoroethane + n-perfluorohexane binary
system and at four temperatures ranging from (282.89 to 312.95) K
for the perfluoroethane + n-perfluorooctane binary
system. Vapor pressure data were measured for perfluoroethane, n-perfluorohexane, and n-perfluorooctane.
The data was measured using a “static-analytic” type
apparatus. The expanded uncertainties in temperature, pressure, and
both the liquid and vapor compositions (mole fractions) were estimated as 0.09 K, 0.01
MPa, and 0.015 and 0.006, respectively. The VLE data were correlated
with the Peng–Robinson equation of state utilizing the classical
one-fluid mixing rule. The experimental data were accurately represented
by the model. The relative deviations in pressure and composition
were within 1%. The critical region of the phase envelope was well
represented by the model.
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.
