| Fig. 1. Schematic PT diagram with Vapour Liquid Equilibrium and Pseudo-Critical Pressure (Ppc). |
The simplest estimate of Pseudo-Critical Pressure
p_{pc} is the mole fraction weighted average:
| (1) | p_{pc} = \sum_i x_i \, p_{c,i} |
where
x_i | mole fraction of the i-th mixture component |
p_{c,i} | critical pressure of the i-th mixture component |
