Redlich-Kwong-<strong>Aspen</strong><br />

The Redlich-Kwong-<strong>Aspen</strong> equation-of-state is the basis for the RK-ASPEN<br />

property method. It can be used for hydrocarbon processing applications. It is<br />

also used for more polar components and mixtures of hydrocarbons, and for<br />

light gases at medium to high pressures.<br />

The equation is the same as Redlich-Kwong-Soave:<br />

p =<br />

A quadratic mixing rule is maintained for:<br />

a =<br />

An interaction parameter is introduced in the mixing rule for:<br />

b =<br />

For ai an extra polar parameter is used:<br />

The interaction parameters are temperature-dependent:
