A new equation of state expressed explicitly in the Helmholtz free energy for the thermodynamic properties of 1,1,1,2,3,3-hexafluoropropane (R236ea) was presented in this paper. The equation uses temperature and density as independent variables and is valid from 240 K to 412 K with pressures up to 6.0 MPa. The results from the equation of state were compared with the available experimental data. The uncertainties in density of the equation of state are estimated to be 0.1% in the compressed liquid region, and 0.5% in the vapor region. The uncertainties in vapor pressure are 0.2% at temperatures from 280 K to 370 K, and 0.4% at temperatures outside of this range. The uncertainty in speed of sound is 0.1% in the vapor region and 2% in the liquid region. The equation of state shows reasonable extrapolation behavior at higher pressures and temperatures.
► An equation of state for thermodynamic properties of HFC236ea was developed. ► The valid range is at temperature from 240 K to 400 K and pressure up to 6.0 MPa. ► The values from the equation of state were compared with the experimental data. ► The uncertainties of the calculated values were estimated.
