Introduction: Today, there are four main groups of methods for calculating the compressibility factor of natural gas: experimental measurements, equations of state, empirical correlations, modern methods based on genetic algorithms, neural networks, atomistic modeling (Monte Carlo method and molecular dynamics). A correctly chosen method can improve the accuracy of calculating gas reserves and predicting its production and processing. Aim: To find the optimal methods for calculating the z-factor following the characteristic thermobaric conditions. Methods: To determine the best method for calculating the compressibility factor, the effectiveness of using various empirical correlations and equations of state to predict the compressibility factor of hydrocarbon systems (reservoir gases and separation gases) of various compositions were evaluated by comparing numerical results with experimental data. Results and Discussion: Based on 824 experimental values of the compressibility factor for 235 various gas mixtures in the pressure range from 0.1 to 94 MPa and temperatures from 273 to 437 K, the optimal equation of state and empirical correlation dependence for accurate z-factor prediction was found. It is shown that for all gas mixtures the Peng-Robinson equation of state with the shift parameter and Brusilovsky equation of state allow achieving best results. For these methods, the average absolute relative error does not exceed 2%. Among the correlation dependences, the best results are shown by the Sanjari and Nemati Lay; Heidaryan, Moghadasi and Rahimi correlations with an error not exceeding 3%. Conclusions: It was found that for the proposed methods, the reduced pressure has a more significant effect on the accuracy of the calculated values than the reduced temperature. It is shown that when studying acid gas mixtures with a carbon dioxide content of more than 10%, the equations of state better describe the phase behavior of the system in comparison with empirical correlations.

There has recently been a revival of interest in theories of liquid mixtures based on analytic equations of state for pure fluids. We have shown that the method used to determine the parameters of the pure-liquid equation of state has a significant effect on the excess thermodynamic properties obtained from such theories.

As is well-known, the structures and thermodynamic properties of fluids are determined by the complex interactions, i.e., the repulsive one and the attractive one, among particles. The simplest equation-of-state (EOS) model maybe the one of hard sphere repulsion plus or multiplying some attraction. Followed by the rapid promotion of the accuracy of hard sphere EOS in the past dozens of years, one question rises as whether more accurate hard sphere repulsion derives better prediction of the structures and properties of fluids with a special attraction. In this work, we used two repulsions with clearly different accuracy and some attractions to construct series equations of state (EOSs) for real fluids, and then we discussed the saturated properties at liquid–gas equilibrium. We found that the answer to the question aforementioned is not definitely standing.

In this work, the GERG-2004 equation of state based on a multi-fluid approximation explicit in the reduced Helmholtz energy is compared with the predictive Soave-Redlich-Kwong group contribution method. In the analysis, both equations of state are compared by simulating a non-isothermal transient flow of natural gas and mixed hydrogen-natural gas in pipelines. Besides the flow conditions also linepack-energy and energy consumption of the compressor station are computed. The gas flow is described by a set of partial differential equations resulting from the conservation of mass, momentum and energy. A pipeline section of the Yamal-Europe gas pipeline on Polish territory has been selected for the case study.

The precision with which the thermodynamic properties of compressed water and steam are known has led, not unnaturally, to the development of equations of state suitable only for use on electronic digital computers. The equations are in the main empirical although some are highly sophisticated and lead to lengthy programs and complex sub-routines. Among such equations are those of the 1966 and 1967 Formulations of the Thermo-dynamic Properties of Ordinary Water Substance prepared by the International Formulation Committee of the International Steam Conference. The favoured form of equation has been one in which the dependent variables are enthalpy, volume and entropy and the independent variables pressure and temperature. However, this form of equation may not prove to be always the most suitable and the purpose of this paper is to describe how another type of equation, in which the dependent variable is enthalpy and the independent variables are pressure and entropy, may be established and applied. It is believed that this particular type of equation, relating as it does the three most important parameters in pump and turbine performance, has special qualities for design and efficiency calculations. By way of example the efficiency of a water turbine is evaluated according to the ‘thermodynamic method’ described by Thom (2). A concluding section outlines the further steps being taken by the authors to provide a similar type of equation over ranges of pressure and temperature up to 1000 bar and 1000°C.

Calculation of thermodynamic properties such as vapor-liquid phase behavior with equations of state is largely and successfully employed in chemical engineering applications.<br>However, in the proximities of the critical point, the different density-fluctuation scales inherent to critical phenomena introduce significant changes in these thermodynamic properties, with which the classical equations of state are not prepared to deal.<br>Aiming at correcting this failure, we apply a renormalization-group methodology to the CPA equation of state in order to improve the thermodynamic description in the vicinity of critical points.<br>We use this approach to compute vapor-liquid equilibrium of pure components and binary mixtures, as well as derivative properties such as speed of sound and heat capacity.<br>Our results show that this methodology is able to provide an equation of state with the correct non-classical behavior, thus bringing it in consonance with experimental observation of vapor-liquid equilibrium and derivative properties in near-critical conditions.
