Equations of State for Technical Applications. III. Results for Polar Fluids

New functional forms have been developed for multiparameter equations of state for non- and weakly polar fluids and for polar fluids. The resulting functional forms, which were established with an optimization algorithm which considers data sets for different fluids simultaneously, are suitable as a basis for equations of state for a broad variety of fluids. The functional forms were designed to fulfil typical demands of advanced technical application with regard to the achieved accuracy. They are numerically very stable and their substancespecific coefficients can easily be fitted to restricted data sets. In this way, a fast extension of the group of fluids for which accurate empirical equations of state are available is now possible. This article deals with the results found for the polar fluids CFC-11 (trichlorofluoromethane), CFC-12 (dichlorodifluoromethane), HCFC-22 (chlorodifluoromethane), HFC-32 (difluoromethane), CFC-113 (1,1,2-trichlorotrifluoroethane), HCFC-123 (2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane), HFC-125 (pentafluoroethane), HFC-134a (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane), HFC- 143a (1,1,1-trifluoroethane), HFC-152a (1,1-difluoroethane), carbon dioxide, and ammonia. The substance-specific parameters of the new equations of state are given as well as statistical and graphical comparisons with experimental data. General features of the new class of equations of state such as their extrapolation behavior or their numerical stability and results for non- and weakly polar fluids have been discussed in preceding articles.
