Abstract
The ideal gas equation of state (EOS) model is a well-known low-density limiting model. Recently, an ideal dense matter EOS model for the high-density limit symmetric to the ideal gas model has been developed. Here, by mathematically interpolating between the ideal gas and ideal dense matter limiting models, we establish a global model containing two EOS in the form of P-V-T and P-S-T for arbitrary ranges of densities. Different from empirical or semi-empirical EOS, the coefficients in the global EOS have a clear physical meaning and can be determined from a priori knowledge. The proposed global model is thermodynamically consistent and continuous. It reduces to the ideal gas model when approaching the low-density limit and to the ideal dense matter model when approaching the high-density limit. Verifications for 4He show that the global model reproduces the large-range behavior of matter well, along with providing important insight into the nature of the large-range behavior. Compared to the third-order virial EOS and the Benedict–Webb–Rubin EOS, the global P-V-T EOS has higher descriptive accuracy with fewer coefficients over a wide range of data for N2. The global model is shown to work well in extreme applied sciences. It predicts a linear, inverse relationship between entropy and volume when the temperature-to-pressure ratio is constant, which can explain the entropy-production behavior in shock-Hugoniots.
