Abstract

Vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the refrigerant mixture ethyl fluoride (HFC-161) + 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoroproane (HFC-227ea) are reported in the temperature range from 253.15 K to 313.15 K with a single-phase circulation vapor–liquid equilibrium still. The results of the correlation for the vapor–liquid equilibrium data with Peng–Robinson (PR) equation of state (EOS), combined with the first Modified Huron-Vidal (MHV1) mixing rule and Wilson model, are presented. These results are in a good agreement with experimental data. The average and maximum derivations of vapor molar composition are within 0.0130 and 0.0295 respectively, and the average and maximum relative derivations of pressure are within 1.04% and 2.96%, respectively. The model parameters, determined from these binary data, are given to predict the phase behavior for a later ternary system. The binary system HFC-161 + HFC-227ea is a non-azeotropic mixture and exhibits a negative deviation from Raoult's law.
