Soave Modification[edit]

A modification of the the Redlich-Kwong equation of state was presented by Giorgio Soave in order to allow better representation of non-spherical molecules[3]. In order to do this, the square root temperature dependence was replaced with a temperature dependent acentric factor ():

where is the critical temperature. This leads to an equation of state of the form:

or equivalently:
