Bubble pressures and saturated liquid molar volumes of trichlorofluoromethane—chlorodifluoromethane mixtures. Representation of refrigerant-mixtures vapor—liquid equilibrium data by a modified form of the Peng—Robinson equation of state

Abstract Experimental vapor—liquid equilibrium data and saturated liquid molar volumes of chlorodifluoromethane—trichlorofluoromethane binary mixtures have been obtained at four temperatures (298.15, 323.15, 348.15 and 373.15 K) using apparatus described previously. The experimental vapor—liquid equilibria are represented well by a modified form of the Peng—Robinson equation of state with one interaction parameter, but the mean deviation between the calculated and experimental densities is 5%. Vapor—liquid data for binary refrigerant mixtures from the literature are treated using the modified form of the Peng—Robinson equation of state with one adjusted interaction parameter in the mixing rule for a . The representation is fair and is not improved by introducing an additional parameter in the mixing rule for b .
