A crossover multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid model for pure hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide near to and far from the critical region

The multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid model with the local composition concept is capable of describing thermodynamic properties for complex systems, but this model cannot represent the singular behavior of fluids near the critical region. In this research, the multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid model for pure fluids is combined with a crossover theory to obtain a crossover multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid model which incorporates the critical scaling laws valid asymptotically close to the critical point and reduces to the original classical multi-fluid nonrandom model far from the critical point. The crossover multi-fluid nonrandom lattice fluid model shows a great improvement in prediction of the thermodynamic properties of pure compounds near the critical region.
