Abstract: | There are more than 1000 good experimental measurements of fluid fluorine, which cover the range from the triple point to 300 K for pressures up to 23 MPa. The development of an equation of state to fit these data is described. The form of equation used is that of a reduced Helmholtz energy function which includes an equation to represent the behavior of the ideal gas. The coefficients in the equation are determined by a least-squares method where the terms used are selected statistically from a given bank, thus reducing intercorrelation. Two banks of terms were chosen and various fits made using P T data alone, and multiproperty fits with both banks. The serious consequence of using P T data alone is demonstrated, and the difference in quality between the two banks is described. The problems of inconsistency between the single-phase and the saturated density data are discussed. New equations are given which represent the ideal-gas properties. |
