Popis: A generalized cubic equation of state is given. The Peng-Robinson and the Soave-Redlich-Kwong equations are special cases of this equation. The generalized equation of state is precisely as simple and computationally efficient as these classical equations. Through comparison with the Span-Wagner equation for CO 2, we obtain an improved density accuracy in predefined temperature-pressure domains. The generalized equation is then verified through two relevant examples of CO 2 injection and migration. Comparisons are made with other standard cubic EOS in order to show the range of solutions obtained with less accurate EOS.
