  • The Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology has introduced a vapor pressure equation. It addresses the limitations of the Lee-Kesler method, which has been a widely used method in the field of thermodynamics,

The article from MSN discusses a new equation developed by researchers at the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau in Germany, which refines the calculation of vapor pressure under various conditions. This new equation, published in the journal *Fluid Phase Equilibria*, aims to improve upon existing models by providing more accurate predictions across a broader range of temperatures and pressures. It incorporates the effects of temperature, pressure, and molecular interactions more effectively, making it particularly useful for industries like pharmaceuticals, where precise control over vapor pressure is crucial for processes such as distillation and drying. The equation's development involved extensive experimental data and computational modeling to ensure its reliability and applicability in real-world scenarios, potentially leading to advancements in chemical engineering and material science.
