Hi Vishnu

The incompressible models are useful for cases where limited property data makes use of more accurate EOSes impossible. For example, look at the moltensalt.a4c and liquidsodium.a4c models in trunk/models/johnpye. Another case might be where we seek to validate calculations made elsewhere with simplifying assumptions. Another case would be where solving Helmholtz EOS is too costly. Another case would be where phase changes occurring in a simulation are outside the region of interest, and simply incur additional computation cost which we are sure, as model developers, is not required.

We are interest in extending FPROPS to simulations of mixtures including solutions, VLE, etc. I think that there will be some value in having incompressible fluid models for those cases, also.

Cheers

Hi All,

I am in search of a strong motivation as in why we need an incompressible model for FPROPS. To my understanding, a Helmoltz method is universally valid and we are adding an incompressible EOS model to reduce the associated complexity with Helmholtz EOS. Does that sound right?

Thanks,

Vishnu.
