Abstract
In this work, a thermodynamic model for prediction of Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium (VLE) at moderate pressures (up to 19 bar) and different temperatures (288-323 K) is developed by using Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) and Peng-Robenson (PR) equations of state (EoS) in combination with the classical van der Waals (vdW) mixing rules. Four refrigerant binary systems have been considered in this study (R134a+ R1336mzz (E)), (R600a+R1234ze (Z)), (R600a+R1243zf), (R744+R152a). Also, a new method was used to improve binary interaction parameters (kij). A comparison of experimental phase equilibrium data in the literature with the predicted results showed very good representation for some mixing rules.
