Summary

This study reports a set of new vapor liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the binary mixture of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (R134a) + propane (R290) at temperatures from 253.15 to 303.15 K, and the saturated vapor pressures of R290 and R134a at temperatures ranging from 253.15 to 323.15 K using a recirculation apparatus with view windows. The VLE data were correlated with the well-known NRTL-RK, Wilson-RK, and UNIQ-RK models. The results indicated that all the models showed good agreement with the experimental data. The average absolute relative deviations of pressure (AARDp) were between 0.01% and 0.02%, while the average absolute deviations of vapor phase mole fraction (AADy) were between 0.0035 and 0.0041. Positive azeotropic behavior could be observed for the R134a + R290 system, and the azeotropic point data at six temperatures from 253.15 to 303.15 K were presented.
