(adopted from BS,7th edition) Saturated pressure as a function of temperature follows a
correlation obtained by Wagner to find
lnPr=w1+w21.5+w33+w46Tr,
where the reduced pressure and temperature are Pr=PPc and Tr=TTc, where c denotes
the critical point. The term is defined as
=1-Tr.
The parameters for R134-a are
w1=-7.59884,w2=1.48886,w3=-3.79873,w4=1.81379.
Compare this correlation to the results found in the table in Appendix B.
Make your comparison in the form of a plot of P versus T. Use appropriate SI units for pressure
and temperature, and label your plot appropriately. Your plot should have a continuous curve
for the predictions of Wagner's equation; do not use circles or stars, etc., to label any individual
points. The data from the tables should be labeled by a discrete marker such as a little circle
or star. The data from the table should not have any curve connecting its points on your
graph; just put in the raw data points. Examine plots on linear and semi-log, and log scales,
and choose to present the one that gives the best depiction of the information.
