The quotidian equation of state (QEOS) is a general-purpose equation of state model for use in hydrodynamic simulation of high-pressure phenomena. Electronic properties are obtained from a modified Thomas–Fermi statistical model, while ion thermal motion is described by a multiphase equation of state combining Debye, Grüneisen, Lindemann, and fluid-scaling laws. The theory gives smooth and usable predictions for ionization state, pressure, energy, entropy, and Helmholtz free energy. When necessary, the results may be modified by a temperature-dependent pressure multiplier which greatly extends the class of materials that can be treated with reasonable accuracy. In this paper a comprehensive evaluation of the resulting thermodynamic data is given including comparison with other theories and shock-wave data.
