Equation of State for the Real Gas:

\rho(p, T) = \frac{1}{Z} \cdot \frac{M}{R} \cdot \frac{p}{T}

where

Gas density

Gas pressure

Gas molar mass

Compressibility factor

Gas temperature

Gas constant


Despite the name it covers a lot of medium-density liquids as well.


Pure Substances



The 
Z-factor  of pure substances is usually modelled through the reduced fluid properties

Reduced Temperature

Сritical temperature

Reduced Pressure

Critical pressure

Fluid Mixtures



The 
Z-factor  of fluid mixtures is usually modelled through the pseudo-reduced fluid properties
