Title: COMPARISON OF A PAIR OF THREE PARAMETER EQUATIONS OF STATE

Contents: The lattice fluid (LF) equation of state derived by Sanchez and Lacombe from a lattice model is compared to the empirical Peng-Robinson (PR) equation for normal alkane fluids ranging from methane to heptadecane in molecular weight. With respect to vapor pressure predictions, the equations are both good. The LF equation is superior, especially for higher molecular weight fluids, to the Peng-Robinson equation in predicting saturated liquid densities. For carbon numbers less than 6, the PR equation predicts heats of vaporization more accurately, whereas for carbon numbers greater than 9 the LF equation is more accurate than the PR one for temperatures lower than about 95% of critical.
