Abstract
The suitability of different combinations of property data among vapor-pressure (Psat), enthalpy of vaporization (ΔvapH) and saturated-liquid heat-capacity (cP,liqsat) data for fitting consistent Twu α-function parameters is evaluated. A given combination is declared to be suitable if the obtained fitted parameters produce acceptable predictions for the three considered properties for the 783 molecules included in the reference database. Calculations are carried out using the translated-consistent versions of the Peng–Robinson (tc-PR) and Redlich–Kwong (tc-RK) cubic equations of state (CEoS). It is demonstrated that reliable parameters are obtained on the condition that they are, at least, fitted to vapor-pressure data. It is strongly advised to not exclusively fit α-function parameters to enthalpy of vaporization and/or saturated-liquid heat capacity data. Finally, Twu α-function parameters (L, M, N) suitable for the tc-PR and tc-RK CEoS are determined for the 1721 molecules, for which at least accurate ...
