The Thiele hard sphere equation of state is an equation of state for modeling a hard sphere fluid developed by Thiele in 1963 [1]. The equation provides a better approximation of the repulsive forces between molecules than the Van der Waals repulsive term. The equation is given below:

In terms of accuracy, the Thiele equation is superseded by the Carnahan-Starling equation of state
