Ms. Zabaloy et Jh. Vera, THE PENG-ROBINSON SEQUEL - AN ANALYSIS OF THE PARTICULARS OF THE 2ND AND 3RD GENERATIONS, Industrial & engineering chemistry research, 37(5), 1998, pp. 1591-1597
This work gives an overview of the changes which have helped improve t
he basic Peng-Robinson equation of state (EOS). Four pure compound pro
perties are considered: vapor pressure, saturated liquid volumes, satu
rated vapor volumes, and enthalpies of vaporization. A comparative stu
dy of the results obtained with the basic forms of the Peng-Robinson,
the van der Waals, the Redlich-Kwong, and the MCSV equations of state
clearly shows the advantages of the Peng-Robinson form.
