Transport Properties

After constructing a model, transport properties can be calculated (if respective parameters are available). The call for all this is always of the form:

transport_property(model, p, T, x=[1.]; phase=:unkwown)

where

  • model is a AbstractTransportPropertyModel,
  • p is the pressure ([p] = Pa),
  • T is the temperature ([T] = K),
  • x is the mole fraction ([x] = mol mol⁻¹), and
  • phase is the desired phase (liquid or gas) used in the volume solver.

Internally, the density is always calculated first and then the function EntropyScaling.ϱT_transport_property(model, ϱ, T, x) is called (with [ϱ] = mol m⁻³).
