For other compounds, data for the generalized ideal-solution K-values were taken from Hougen,
others.3 The restrictions and assumptions concerning the use and development of these K-values are
given in this reference. These data were correlated with the reduced temperature and pressure in the
general equation and for zc = 0.27.
The results of the regression analysis are given in Table II. The ranges 0.90 T r 2.00, Pr 2.0 and
0.60 Tr 0.90, 0.01 Pr 0.5 are denoted in this table as I; and the range 0.60 T r 0.90, 0.5 Pr
2.0 is denoted as II. As before, more-accurate predictions were found to result if the data were divided
into two sections containing values of K above and below 1.0. These cases are shown as rows
subscribed with a and b in Table II.
Finally, to correct the value of K given by the equation and Table II for substances having a value of
zc other than 0.27, the following equation may be used to make corrections3 :
