Salt-Water stand-alone CAPE-OPEN 1.2 Property Package

This is an example property package implementation, featuring a single water phase and two components: water and NaCl. The calculations for the liquid phase are based on

• Mostafa H. Sharqawy, John H. Lienhard V, Syed M. Zubair, Desalination and Water Treatment, doi 10.5004/dwt.2010.1079
• Kishor G. Nayar, Mostafa H. Sharqawy, Leonardo D. Banchik, John H. Lienhard V, Desalination, doi 10.1016/j.desal.2016.02.024

The package support calculation of the following liquid properties:

• Density
• Volume
• Enthalpy
• Entropy
• Viscosity
• Thermal conductivity

See the salt_water_calculator documentation fo validity ranges.

Phase equilibria routines are provided that calculate the conditions of the liquid phase, at given temperaure and pressure, temperature and enthalpy, and temperature and entropy, which makes the packge suitable for steady state flowsheet calculations including heat exchangers, pumps and turbines.

To use the property package from source, compile the source, and register the property package using

cobiaRegister.exe salt_water.dll

An installer for Windows is made available through the AmsterCHEM web site.

This software uses strum, a set of macros and traits for working with enums and strings easier in Rust, by Peter GlotFelty
