Abstract
Speed of sound data, measured using a dual-path pulse-echo instrument, are reported for three binary mixtures of 1,1-difluoroethylene (R-1132a) with propane at temperatures ranging from 230 to 345 K and pressures ranging from slightly above the bubble curve to a maximum pressure of 50 MPa. Significant attenuation of the pulse-echo signals was observed for measurements on pure R-1132a. Therefore, the R-1132a sample was doped with propane at mole fractions ranging from 0.0274 to 0.0887 and the propane + R-1132a mixture data was used to derive sound speeds for pure R-1132a. The data were compared to a preliminary equation of state for R-1132a, and deviations ranged from 2 % to 8 %. This demonstrates that the preliminary R-1132a EoS needs to be refit to better represent the speed of sound.
