Twu, Sim and Tassone presented a cubic equation of state for accurate representation of hydrocarbon that has become known as the Twu-Sim-Tassone or TST equation of state[1]. With a critical compressibility factor Zc of 0.2962, it better represents many the compressibility of than the Redlich-Kwong equation of state, including the Soave modified version, and the Peng and Robinson equation of state and has been shown to better represent long chain hydrocarbons[2].

The equation follows the general cubic form resulting in the equation:

p=RTVm−b−a(Vm−0.5b)(Vm+3b)

Where Vm is the molar volume, and a and b are the attractive and repulsive parameters akin to those of the Van der Waals equation of state.
