Abstract

P-V-T data available in the literature for methyl alcohol have been used to develop a reduced density correlation for this substance. The critical constants used are those determined by Young (22): T_c = 513.2° K., P_c = 78.50 atm., and ρ_c = 0.272 gram/cc. In order to extend the P-V-T information for methyl alcohol over the complete range of temperatures up to T_R = 2.0 and pressures up to P_R = 40, the Nelson-Obert compressibility factor charts (14) and the available reduced density correlations for water (21) and ammonia (6) have been used. The resulting reduced density plots for methyl alcohol are capable of reproducing experimental values within 1.1%.
