Abstract

New coordination number models for square-well (SW) fluids are incorporated with the generalized van der Waals partition function to develop equations of state for both pure and mixture SW fluids. The equations of state have been extensively tested with the Monte Carlo simulation data, of which three sets (18 data points) for the pure SW fluids are produced in this work. The results show that, without any parameters, our model reasonably describes not only the PVT behaviors but also the second and third virial coefficients of the model fluids. In addition, a comprehensive comparison has been made between our models and the other equations of state derived from the Lee-Chao and Lee-Sandler coordination number correlations.
