Equation of state for 1,2-dichloroethane based on a hybrid data set

ABSTRACTA fundamental equation of state in terms of the Helmholtz energy is presented for 1,2-dichloroethane. Due to a narrow experimental database, not only laboratory measurements but also molecular simulation data are applied to the fitting procedure. The present equation of state is valid from the triple point up to 560 K for pressures of up to 100 MPa. The accuracy of the equation is assessed in detail. Furthermore, a reasonable extrapolation behaviour is verified.
