packageR290_IIR_P05_30_T263_343_Record

Refrigerant model for R290 using a hybrid approach with recods developed by Sangi et al.

Extends from AixLib.Media.Refrigerants.Interfaces.PartialHybridTwoPhaseMediumRecord (Base class for two phase medium using a hybrid approach with records).

Information

This package provides a refrigerant model for R290 using a hybrid approach developed by Sangi et al.. The hybrid approach is implemented in AixLib.Media.Refrigerants.Interfaces.PartialHybridTwoPhaseMediumRecord and the refrigerant model is implemented by complete the template AixLib.Media.Refrigerants.Interfaces.TemplateHybridTwoPhaseMediumRecord . The fitting coefficients required in the template are saved in the package AixLib.DataBase.Media.Refrigerants.R290.

Assumptions and limitations

The implemented coefficients are fitted to external data by Sangi et al. and are valid within the following range:

Validation

Sangi et al. validated their model by comparing it to results obtained from the Helmholtz equation of state. They found out that relative error of the refrigerant model compared to HelmholtzMedia (Thorade and Saadat, 2012) is close to zero.
