Liquids and Gases Materials Library
The Liquids and Gases Materials library contains thermal and fluid dynamic properties for a set of common liquids and gases. All properties are given as functions of temperature and at atmospheric pressure, except the density, which for gases is also a function of the local pressure. The database also contains surface and interface tensions for a selected set of liquid/gas and liquid/liquid systems. All functions are based on data collected from scientific publications. This material library is included in the Acoustics Module, CFD Module, Chemical Reaction Engineering Module, Heat Transfer Module, MEMS Module, Pipe Flow Module, and Subsurface Flow Module,
