Lennard-Jones equation of state

The equation of state of the Lennard-Jones model.

Johnson, Zollweg and Gubbins equation of state

Johnson et al proposed an equation of state based on 33 parameters, which accurately reproduces the vapor liquid equilibrium curve.

Kolafa and Nezbeda equation of state

The Kolafa and Nezbeda equation of state provides us with the Helmholtz energy function: (Eq. 30):

$A=A_{\mathrm {HS} }+\exp(-\gamma \rho ^{2})\rho T\Delta B_{2,{\mathrm {hBH} }}+\sum _{ij}C_{ij}T^{i/2}\rho ^{j}$

the compressibility factor (Eq. 31)

and the internal energy (Eq. 32)

Melting line

The solid and liquid densities along the melting line are given by the equations of Mastny and de Pablo (Ref Eqs. 20 and 21):
