| Abstract: | We have developed an automatic apparatus for measuring phase equilibrium and (p, Vm, T) properties of gas mixtures in our laboratory. Based upon the isochoric method, the apparatus can operate at temperatures ranging from 100 K to 500 K at pressures up to 35 MPa, and yield absolute results in fully automated operation. Temperature measurements are accurate to 0.01 K and pressure measurements are accurate to 0.002 MPa. The isochoric method utilizes pressure versus temperature measurements along an isomole (near isochore) and detects phase boundaries by locating the change in the slope of the isomoles.We also have developed a strategy that allows us, when using the above isochoric method together with a second apparatus capable of isothermal density measurements, to collect derived densities that are competitive in accuracy with those of the densimeter, but with a procedure and design that is easy to automate. We present data on a natural gas-like mixture. The experimental data indicate that prediction of the dew point curve with current equations of state is unreliable. |
