Hydrogen solubility in heavy petroleum fractions was modelled with Peng-Robinson cubic equation of state combined with the UNIFAC solution model (EoS/GE) through a modified Huron-Vidal mixing rule (MHV1). As critical properties and molecular structure of heavy petroleum fractions are entering parame...
