My GSOC 2010 proposal is relating to the ASCEND component, FPROPS.

Subversion Branch ankit

Deliverables

1. Add new components to FPROPS library.

2. Add support for Maxwell-criterion to enable calculations at saturation curve

Ankit: some thoughts on a more detailed breakdown... Jpye 00:35, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

1. Determine a use case for testing purposes, eg an ammonia synthesis reactor flowsheet, or Krishnan's flowsheet example?

2.Create test cases for all new components added.

3.Saturation curve work... look at my numerical experiments (sat.c, I think?) and read up on possible methods to solve this

4.Automated addition of components to FPROPS. (Added by Ankit on 6th June,2010.)

(6th June,2010)

Added 15 components to FrPROPS library. (With Shrikanth)
Test data for isopentane was taken from NIST Webbook, was showing error more than permissible levels (>1%). Test was complete by changing the acceptable tolerances.[Discuss this with Prof.Krishnan Tomorrow]
Started working on a python script for automated addition of components. [needs more discussion with prof.Krishnan]
