Incorrect CO2 density with EPM2 model

Dear all,

I try to perform CO2 density by EPM2 model at temperature 318K pressure 20MPa. The density of experimental data was 0.84. Unfortunately, the result of simulation was 0.27 wihch I did. But most of the literature simulated the correct density with EPM2 model.

Parameters and input file see below. Can you give me some advice or tell me where I can get help? Thankyou very much.

Sincerely,

Muhan

If you’re off by 3x in density, then there is something

basic wrong with your model. No one is likely to

be able to figure that out for you.
