Abstract:The vapor-liquid critical curve of the binary system ethane + 2-methylpropane was determined from the critical temperature of ethane up to the critical temperature of 2-methylpropane. The results are compared with vapor-liquid equilibrium data reported earlier on this system and with the critical curve that Is predicted for this system from the Peng-Roblnson equation of state.
“…This apparatus was already described for the first time in 1878 [39] and is still one of the most accurate equipment for measuring phase equilibria. A schematic drawing of the apparatus can be found elsewhere [40]. The Cailletet equipment allows measurement of phase equilibria within a pressure range of 0.1-15 MPa and temperatures from 255 to 470 K, depending on the heat-transferring fluid used.…”

“…A Cailletet apparatus (11) was used to measure bubble pressures of mixtures with xq0.922 and to determine directly the coordinates of the three-phase curves s C20 lg for pressures below 16 MPa. Essentially, this equipment consisted of a half-open glass tube containing the sample.…”
“…A detailed description of the experimental set-up can be found in Ref. [18]. The equipment allows access to temperatures of up to 508 K and pressures of up to 15 MPa.…”
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.
