Summary

Vapour-liquid equilibria for refrigerant mixtures modelled by an equation of state are studied. Phase behaviour calculated by the Soave-Redlich-Kwong equation with a single adjustable binary interaction parameter is compared with experimental data for binary refrigerant mixtures, two with a supercritical component and one that exhibits azeotropic behaviour. Three representative binary systems from the pure components chlorodifluoromethane (R22), trifluoromethane (R23), methane (R50), ethane (R170), carbon dioxide (R744) and ethene (R1150) are used to illustrate the vapour-liquid equilibria generally observed for binary refrigerant mixtures.
