Abstract

Isobaric heat capacity of pressurized liquid trans-1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene [R1234ze(E)] was measured by scanning calorimetry. The experimental system basically consists of a Calvet calorimeter (Setaram C80) and a pressure balance unit. A total of 95 data points were obtained at temperatures from 310.15 to 365.15 K and pressures up to 5.5 MPa. An empirical equation was used to correlate the experimental data with an average absolute percentage deviation of 0.18 %. Besides, a comparison was carried out between present data and literature data and three latest fundamental equations of state. Finally, saturated liquid heat capacity of R1234ze(E) was also investigated in this paper.
