• A perturbed hard-trimer (PHT) equation of state (EOS) has been employed to model volumetric properties of molten metals and their alloys considering a trimer expression obtained from the statistical associating fluid theory. The van der Waals dispersion forces were applied as perturbation term. Two parameters appeared in the PHT EOS, reflecting the dispersive energy among trimers, ε and the hard-core diameter σ were determined based on the molecular scaling parameters. The performance of the proposed PHT EOS has been evaluated by predicting the saturated and isobaric densities of 16 molten metals including alkali metals, alkali earth and refractory metals over the temperature range within 234-7400 K and pressures up to 436 MPa. From 677 data points examined, the average absolute deviation (AAD) of the predicted densities from the experimental ones was found to be 1.60%. Furthermore, the estimated uncertainties of predicted densities of alloys were ±3.00%.
