WINSTEAM - THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF STEAM
WinSteam
is a member of Techwares family of software packages bringing accurate

thermodynamic properties of fluids to many popular Windows programs. WinSteam provides
thermodynamic and transport properties of steam and water. The WinSteam package includes:
DeskTop Steam, an advanced steam property calculator; a dynamic link library (DLL) containing the
steam property functions; and various add-ins which link the functions to Windows applications. The
add-ins allow you to use the functions as if they were built-in to Microsoft Excel, Lotus 1-2-3 for
Windows and MathSoft Mathcad. Programmers can call the functions in the dynamic link library
directly from many Windows programming languages such as Microsoft Visual BASIC,
Microsoft Visual C++ and Microsoft Access.
WinSteam will greatly simplify all types of calculations involving steam and water. The
functions are extremely useful in performing mass and energy balances and in calculating
the performance of steam turbines, steam generators and heat exchangers. You can
conveniently design equipment right on your favorite spreadsheet and your results will be
more accurate because you wont have to interpolate data from steam tables or read data
from mollier charts. WinSteam uses the IAPWS-IF97 formulations but the user can select
the 1967 IFC formulations if needed to be compatible with older projects.
Summary of WinSteam Features

conductivity
Attractive quantity discounts available
Free phone support
WinSteam gives you fast, accurate functions that return specific

volume, enthalpy, entropy, specific heat, quality, sonic velocity,
isentropic expansion coefficient, viscosity and thermal
conductivity for steam and compressed water. WinSteam also
includes reverse functions that calculate the thermodynamic
properties when pressure and either enthalpy or entropy are
known. The functions normally use the IAPWS-IF97
formulations, but at the users option, can use the 1967 IFC
formulations. The functions are valid across the full range defined
by the formulations. The functions have been tested against data

published by the ASME and IAPWS and show excellent
agreement.
No programming is required to use the WinSteam functions with
Excel, 1-2-3 or Mathcad. Just follow a few simple steps to load
the ready-made add-ins. The WinSteam functions can be used in
formulas just like any of the other built-in functions
The WinSteam package also includes DeskTop Steam, an
advanced steam property calculator, which runs in its own
window. DeskTop Steam features very flexible unit selection,
intuitive, standard Windows user interface and a steam turbine
expansion tool.
Programmers should note that all of the steam property functions
are contained in a Windows Dynamic Link Library (DLL). Any
Windows application, which allows users to call functions in a
DLL, should be able to access the WinSteam functions. The 32bit DLL works with Windows NT, 2000, XP and Vista. The 64-bit
DLL works with Windows 7. Function protocols and .LIB files
are included to support programming activities.
