The current interest in the recovery of light hydrocarbons from natural gas necessitates the obtaining of fundamental vapor-liquid equilibrium data for at least the binary systems. Data for the methane-n-butane system were reported previously, and this study is merely an extension to another system where literature data are not available. Phase equilibrium data are presented for the methane-n-pentane system at low temperatures and high pressures. A total of 7 isotherms, from 50/sup 0/ to -140/sup 0/F and 50 to 2,300 psia, is obtained. The measured data are in good agreement with previously reported values.
