Abstract: The paper is concerned with some theoretical and empirical attempts to obtain a unified equation for the thermodynamic properties of fluids that incorporates the nonclassical scaling laws near the critical point and crosses over to a classical analytic equation far away from the critical point. Specifically we investigate to what extent the various proposed crossover models agree with the known theoretical predictions for the universal ratios among the asymptotic and correction-to-scaling amplitudes in the power-law expansions of the thermodynamic properties around the critical point.
