Abstract
The ( p, ρ, T) properties for n-butane in the compressed liquid phase were measured by means of a metal-bellows variable volumometer in the temperature range from 280 K to 380 K at pressures up to 200 MPa. The mole fraction purity of the n-butane used in the measurements was 0.9997. The expanded uncertainties ( k = 2) in temperature, pressure, and density measurements have been estimated to be less than ±3 mK; 1.4 kPa ( p ⩽ 7 MPa), 0.06% (7 MPa < p ⩽ 50 MPa), 0.1% (50 MPa < p ⩽ 150 MPa), and 0.2% ( p > 150 MPa); and 0.09%, respectively. In the region above100 MPa at T = 280 K and T = 440 K, the uncertainty in density measurements increases from 0.09% to 0.13% and 0.22%, respectively. Eight ( p, ρ, T) measurements at the same temperatures and pressures as the literature values have been conducted for comparisons. In addition, comparisons of the available equations of state with the present measurements are reported.
