Physical characteristics of water and steam
The International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS) initiates and coordinates research into the properties of water as an international joint task. The IAPWS developed a mathematical formulation of the thermodynamic properties and transport quantities suitable for industrial use.
The module calculates the following properties of water / steam / saturated steam:
- Density
- Specific isobaric and isochoric heat capacity
- Thermal conductivity
- Dynamic and kinematic viscosity
- Prandtl number
- Thermal diffusivity
- Specific volume
- Specific enthalpy
- Specific inner energy
- Specific entropy
- Compressibility factor
- Surface tension
- Coefficient of thermal expansion
- Isentropic exponent
- Speed of sound
- Dielectric constant
It covers the range of state from 0.00621 bar to 1000 bar and 0.01 °C to 2000 °C.
