FPROPS uses function pointers from the underlying correlation (helmholtz EOS or Peng Robinson EOS ) to calculate fundamental quantities with Temperature and rho as the input. Following are those functions of fprops :-

  1. fprops_p
  2. fprops_u
  3. fprops_h
  4. fprops_s
  5. fprops_a
  6. fprops_g
  7. fprops_P
  8. fprops_dpdrho_T
  9. fprops_alphap
  10. fprops_betaP
  11. fprops_cp
  12. fprops_cv
  13. fprops_w


Both the underlying correlations provide these 13 functions calculated from first principles, with T and <math>\rho</math> as inputs. So the TTSE implementation for a specific liquid and a specific correlation (H or P) should eventually generate tables for each of the above 13 entries. For the saturation function fprops_sat(), takes only 1 input (temperature) and returns saturated liquid density, saturated vapour density and the saturation pressure. This function involves solving equations iteratively and tabulation should speed up calculation on saturation curve.
