A universal equation-of-state model based on single variable functions.

ABSTRACT: Since the ideal gas equation of state (EOS) was established in 1840, a wide variety of EOS theories have been developed. However, due to the diversity of material structures and the complexity of intermolecular interactions, numerous EOS either have complex forms or have empirical coefficients without physical meaning, which severely limits their applications. This paper builds a simple and universal EOS model by means of a fully macroscopic thermodynamic approach. Firstly, two single variable thermodynamic functions as a function of pressure only and as a function of temperature only, respectively, are constructed. On this basis, two EOS in the forms of P-V-T and P-S-T are obtained by thermodynamic derivation, which are almost as simple as the ideal gas EOS. There are no assumptions about
