Experimental high-temperature, high-pressure
(HTHP) density of
three solvents including dimethyl sulfoxide, benzyl alcohol, and isoamyl
acetate was measured at temperatures of 293.15–473.15 K and
pressures up to 35–37.5 MPa. The density was measured with
an Anton Paar density meter (DMA HP) at 20 K and 2.5 MPa intervals.
The calibration fluids were water and benzene. The combined expanded
uncertainty of density taking into account the device specification
and the impurities of the materials was 1 kg·m–3 (0.95 level of confidence). The experimental density data were correlated
with the Tait and new modified Tait equations. The thermal expansion
coefficient (α
p
) and isothermal
compressibility (κ
T
) were calculated
with the new modified Tait equations. Moreover, the perturbed-chain
statistical associating fluid theory (PC-SAFT) equation of state was
used to model the density data at HTHP. In most cases, the PC-SAFT
parameters are obtained from saturated vapor pressure and liquid phase
density; however, these parameters were calculated from the density
at HTHP in the present study. Regarding these parameters, thermodynamic
properties such as the thermal expansion coefficient (α
p
), isothermal compressibility (κ
T
), isobaric heat capacity (C
P
), and speed of sound (u) were calculated. Acceptable agreement between the results with
experimental data demonstrated the accuracy of modeling with the obtained
parameters.
New experimental
densities for diethylamine (DEA), dibutylamine
(DBA), and tributylamine (TBA) at 11 isotherms in the range of 293.15–473.15
K and 18 isobars up to 37.5 MPa are reported. PρT measurements (176 experimental data points) have been
performed using a high-pressure vibrating-tube densimeter. These data
were correlated with a new modified Tait-like equation considering
standard deviations of less than 2 × 10–4 g·cm–3, and then isothermal compressibility (κT) and thermal expansion coefficient (αP)
were calculated. This study is supported by the results of modeling
using the perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory (PC-SAFT).
The parameters of PC-SAFT equation of state (EoS), for pure solvents,
were rigorously determined by fitting the equation to the liquid PρT experimental data. In this study,
the correlations, which are based on minimizing the total objective
functions (density, pressure, and temperature) simultaneously, were
developed to estimate the PC-SAFT parameters. The model reasonably
predicted the behavior of PρT and the first- and second-derivative properties such as isothermal
compressibility (κT), thermal expansion coefficient
(αP), isobaric heat capacities (C
P), and speed of sound (u). The results
undoubtedly suggest that the model performance is enhanced for either
cases of the new modified Tamman–Tait equation and the PC-SAFT
EoS, based on employing the proposed parameters.
