INSTRUCTIONS:
Given a 0.75/0.25 by mole mixture of methane and heptane at 400 K and 5 MPa, determine
the following:
𝑍 3 − 𝑍 2 + (𝐴 − 𝐵 − 𝐵 2 )𝑍 − 𝐴𝐵 = 0
Where:
𝑛 𝑛 𝑛
𝐴 = ∑ ∑ 𝑥 𝑖 𝑥𝑗 (1 − 𝑘𝑖𝑗 )√𝐴𝑖 𝐴𝑗 𝐵 = ∑ 𝑥 𝑖 𝐵𝑖
𝑖=1 𝑗=1 𝑖=1
𝑛 𝑛
𝑃𝑟,𝑖 𝑃𝑟,𝑖
𝐴𝑖 = 0.42747𝛼𝑖 2 𝐵𝑖 = 0.08664
𝑇𝑟,𝑖 𝑇𝑟,𝑖

𝑎𝑖 = 0.42747 𝑏 𝑖 = 0.08664

𝑚𝑖 = 0.48508 + 1.55171𝜔𝑖 − 0.15613𝜔2𝑖 𝛼𝑖 = [1 + 𝑚𝑖 (1− √𝑇𝑟,𝑖 )]
Having solved the SRK EOS, the partial fugacity coefficient can be found using the following:
𝑁
𝐵𝑖 𝐴 𝐵𝑖 2 𝐵
ln𝜙 𝑖 = (𝑍 − 1) − ln(𝑍 − 𝐵) + [ − ∑ 𝑥𝑗(1 − 𝑘𝑖𝑗 )√ (𝑎𝑖 𝛼𝑖 )(𝑎𝑗 𝛼𝑗 )] ln (1 + )
𝐵 𝐵 𝐵 𝑎𝛼 𝑍
𝑗=1
Note that in the above formula, x and y are interchangeable depending on the phase for which
a calculation is being performed.
Note that comparison you make here is with model calculations rather than real experimental
data. Cubic EOS usually don’t perform well for densities when compared with actual
experimental values.
