RealGas

Simple integration of real-gas effects into open source Chemical Engineering modeling and simulation environments.

Chemical processes involving gas-phases, such as membrane separations, adsorption separations, and heterogeneous catalysis, are ubiquitous. These processes are typically modeled assuming that the gas-phase is ideal and that component heat capacities can be approximated by constant effective values. The purpose of this software package is to allow these assumptions to be relaxed by automating the tediousness of a real gas formulation.
