Thermophysical properties of isobutane from 114 to 700 K at pressures to 70 MPa

Abstract: Using a modified version of the nonanalytic equation of state, thermophysical properties of isobutane are derived from physical properties data and are tabulated at integral temperatures over the entire range of fluid states from 114 to 700 K along isobars at pressures to 70 MPa. Results include dielectric constants, densities, enthalpies, entropies, equation of state, internal energies, isobars, isochores, isotherms, Joule-Thomson inversion, heats of vaporization, melting line, orthobaric densities, specific heats, sound velocities, vapor pressures, and virial coefficients. In addition to the equation of state, equations are given for vapor pressures, orthobaric vapor and liquid densities, ideal gas properties, second virial coefficients, dielectric constants, heats of vaporization, melting pressures, and orthobaric liquid specific heats, enthalpies, and entropies. Several new sets of data have been used in this correlation; comparisons between experimental and calculated values are given.
