Equation of state

Moist air is treated as mixture of two real gases. The P-v-T equation for each component and mixture is described by a virial equation of state

Pv/RT = Z = 1 + B/v + C/v² + ...

where

P = pressure
v = molar specific volume
T = absolute temperature
R = gas constant
Z = compressibility factor
B = second virial coefficient
C = third virial coefficient

Fourth and higher-order virial coefficients are assumed to be negligible. The virial coefficients are functions of temperature, and they account for the deviation of actual gases from ideal gases.
