Abstract
The “Tait equation,” which is now widely used to fit liquid density data over wide pressure ranges, is a modification of the original equation of Tait, published 100 years ago, to fit his results on the compressibility of fresh water and seawater at different pressures. The range of applicability of these different equations is discussed and it is concluded that their simplicity and accuracy in reproducing high pressure density data for dense gases, liquids, solids, and liquid mixtures will ensure their continued use.
