Table 2.2: Pure component parameters for n-alkane series. The data used for parameter
regression were the same as in Gross and Sadowski [48].

Figures 2.5 a and b compare the critical temperatures and pressures for the n-
alkane series from n-C3 to n-C20, predicted from the new EOS and PC-SAFT with
the experimental critical constants. While both equations of state over-predict the
critical temperature and pressure, the critical constants predicted by the new EOS
are in better agreement with the experimental data, especially for longer n-alkanes.
The improvement of density predictions over PC-SAFT in the critical region is also
illustrated in figure 2.4. Like other classical equations of state, the new EOS can-
not describe accurately the singular asymptotic behavior of fluids, which is marked
by long-range density fluctuations. Several methodologies for incorporating critical
scaling into different versions of SAFT have been recently proposed [86, 87] in order
