Abstract :

Equations of State can be viewed as solutions to a first-order partial differential equation that can be solved by the methods of characteristics. The characteristics in this case are isochores that appear to be straight lines. Based on this property of isochore linearity, a simple and very accurate equation of state is developed, which is based on correction terms to the van der Waals equation that depend on the molar volume only.
