Abstract We generate a general frame work to solve the Einstein system with an equation of state that describe static spherically symmetric anisotropic matter distribution in terms of a generating function. It is examined for a Van der Waals type equation of state with a physically reasonable form of generating function. The model satisfies all the required major physical properties of a realistic star. It is shown to be stable in the low-density regime that may represent a liquid–gas mixed fluid sphere.
