Century-old physics idea explains why cubic fluid equations work
The Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT) has developed a new cubic equation of state (EOS) that provides a physical justification for a mathematical structure that the chemical and petroleum industries have…
AI Summary
A team at the Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology has created a new cubic equation of state that supplies a first‑principles basis for the quadratic form used in long‑standing cubic EOS models such as Soave–Redlich–Kwong, Peng–Robinson and Patel–Teja. The model, tested on saturated‑liquid volumes for 76 fluids in fully predictive mode, achieved the lowest mean deviation of 4.0 % among the methods evaluated.
