Completely rewritten and reorganized to reflect the latest developments in estimating the properties of gases and liquids, this new edition of the highly regarded reference presents a comprehensive survey of the most reliable estimation methods in use today. It provides instantly usable information on estimating both physical and thermodynamic properties when experimental data are not available (for example, constants such as critical temperature, critical pressure, acentric factor, and others); thermodynamic properties of gases and liquids, both pure and mixtures, including enthalpies, entropies, fugacity coefficients, heat capacities, and critical points; vapor-liquid and liquid-liquid equilibria as needed in separation operations such as distillation, absorption, and extraction. An invaluable reference that provides property values for more than 600 pure chemicals, this is the only book in its field to include a critical analysis of existing methods as well as practical recommendations.

Correct fluid properties are essential to accurate simulations of system performance. If these properties are not modeled and input correctly, you can work very hard to get the wrong answers, resulted in wasted time and money.
If you work around thermodynamics or fluid dynamics, you should have a copy of this book or access to one for your work.
Reid, et. al. 'wrote the book' on the properties of fluids. This is their latest update to the book. The primary focus is on thermodynamic properties.
I'm not aware of a book that is so comprehensive in its treatment of this subject in both theory and data for various substances.
