Summary

In the paper, the Joule-Thomson inversion curve is predicted and compared with experimental data for air. Many equations of state such as Van der Waals, Redlich-Kwong, Soave-Redlich-Kwong and Peng-Robinson fail to obtain accurate prediction. Therefore, using numerical analysis, a simple two-constant equation of state is developed, which gives very favourable comparison with experiment, namely 2% maximum error in predicting thermodynamic properties, and 0.18 as average standard deviation for the Joule-Thomson curve.
