The stable phase of the hard sphere model at high densities is thought to have a face-centered cubic structure. A number of equations of state have been proposed for this system. The usual procedure to obtain precise equations of state is to fit computer simulation results.
Alder, Hoover and Young equation of state
(Ref 1)
where where is the volume at close packing, is the pressure, is the temperature and is the Boltzmann constant.
Hall equation of state
