General Information
FluidProp is a standard interface to several software libraries for the calculation of thermodynamic and transport properties of fluids. This
program is developed by P. Colonna and T.P. van der Stelt, Energy Technology Section, Delft University of Technology.
A 64-bit version of FluidProp is also available and is no different from the 32-bit version. When installing FluidProp on a 64-bit system, both a
64-bit as well as a 32-bit FluidProp will be installed. The default installation folder for the 64-bit version is C:\Program Files\FluidProp and for
the 32-bit version C:\Program Files (x86)\FluidProp.
Each thermodynamic library implements one or more thermodynamic models for a number of different fluids and mixtures. Fig. 1 schematically
shows the main structure of the program.
Fig. 1: FluidProp Structure
FluidProp makes it easy to obtain fluid properties in different MS Windows® programs and development environments because it is a COM
server, i.e. it follows the Component Object Model standard, a software architecture developed by Microsoft to build component-based
applications. COM objects are discrete components, each with a unique identity, which expose interfaces that allow applications and other
components to access their features. COM objects are more versatile than Win32 DLLs because they are completely language-independent,
have built-in interprocess communications capability, and easily fit into an object-oriented program design. COM was first released in 1993 with
OLE2, largely to replace the interprocess communication mechanism DDE used by the initial release of OLE. ActiveX also is based on COM.
Server means that it provides calculated values to a main program, which is usually defined as a client; therefore both programs implement a
client-server architecture. The new Microsoft .NET runtime environment is fully compatible with the COM standard.
FluidProp provides a common interface to the following thermodynamic libraries:

GasMix
IF97
RefProp (not included in the FluidProp package, must be obtained from NIST)
FreeStanMix
TPSI
StanMix (Available at additional cost)
PCP-SAFT (Available at additional cost)

Independently from the syntax of the client program, the procedure for the calculation of a property is as follows:
First call the SetFluid procedure to define the thermodynamic library and the fluid, e.g.
SetFluid( LibName, FluidName)
This function also returns an object identifier (ObjID) or "memory address" which defines where the input information about the chosen fluid is
stored in the memory of the computer.
Secondly call the procedure for the desired property and supply the object identifier, the input specification that defines the thermodynamic
state and the corresponding values, e.g.
Enthalpy( ObjID, InputSpecifier, Value1, Value2)
Many thermodynamic properties can be computed by FluidProp with a large number of combinations of input properties to define the
thermodynamic state:
Available Thermodynamic and Transport Properties
Available Thermodynamic State Definitions
One innovative feature of FluidProp is that for all thermodynamic models, except for IF97, it is possible to calculate some derived
thermodynamic functions (see Table of available Thermodynamic and Transport Properties ) that are demanded e.g. by up-to-date CFD or
process dynamics software. In this respect, see e.g.:

Using NIST RefProp with FluidProp

Users who already have either RefProp 9.0 or RefProp 9.1 from NIST can use their own RefProp fluid library through FluidProp. Users who have
RefProp 9.1 only need a FluidProp license allowing the use of RefProp and don't have to do anything else. Users who have RefProp 9.0 will have
to add their RefProp's installation directory to their computer's 'path' enviroment variable and will also need a FluidProp license allowing it's use.
PCP-SAFT
PCP-SAFT (Perturbed-Chain Polar Statistical Association Fluid Theory) is an equation of state that is based on statistical mechanics. The
behavior of molecules on a microscopic level is used to predict the macroscopic behavior of a fluid. Because of the strong physical background it
is robust, consistent, and predictive. It is successful in predicting vapor-liquid equilibria of complex fluids and suitable for estimating properties
of complex fluids and of mixtures in general for liquid and vapor phases. The contribution of (self)association and polar interactions (dipolar,
quadrupolar, and dipolar-quadrupolar contributions) are taken into account. PCP-SAFT is not able to account for long-range density fluctuations
in the critical region and as a result the properties, which are calculated in that region, are not accurate. In order to obtain a complete the
thermodynamic model a third order polynomial function for the calculation of the ideal gas heat capacity was added.
The PCP-SAFT components can be used as pure fluids or in a mixture. PCP-SAFT provides thermodynamic and transport properties for the fluids
in Table 1. The listed FluidProp names (either short or long) must be used to specify the fluid name in the SetFluid method.

GasMix
GasMix implements the ideal gas equation of state:
with a temperature dependent specific heat in the form:
Gas data come from the JANAF tables, as documented in:
1. Gordon, S., McBride, B.J. Computer Program for Calculation of complex Chemical Equilibrium Compositions. Lewis Research Center , NASA SP-273, 1971.
and more recently in:
2. Chase, J.M.W., J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data, Monograph 9, 1998.
Transport properties are calculated according to the following methods:
- Viscosity: Chapman &endash; Enskog

- Thermal conductivity: Eucken
Details of the theory and fluid data for these methods can be found in:
3. Reid, R.C., Prausnitz, J.M. and Sherwood, T.K. The Properties of Gases and Liquids, 3rd ed., McGraw-Hill, 1977.
The GasMix components can be used as pure fluids or in a mixture. GasMix provides thermodynamic and transport properties for the fluids in
Table 1. The listed FluidProp names (either short or long) must be used to specify the fluid name in the SetFluid method. For GasMix the short
FluidProp name equals the chemical formula of the fluid. For a given fluid, the FluidProp name is the same in all thermodynamic libraries in
which the fluid is available.

RefProp
RefProp is developed and maintained by the National Institute of Standard and Technologies and any specific information can be found in the
original distribution package.
RefProp is not distributed together with the standard version of FluidProp because RefProp is owned and distributed by the National Institute of
Standards and Technologies (NIST). To get access to RefProp via the common FluidProp interface you must own a valid license of RefProp 8 (or
later). Once a valid a license has been obtained or if you have already a valid license, you can contact us about how to establish a link between
FluidProp and RefProp.
RefProp implements reference equations of state as well as technical equations of state for pure fluids. Reference equations of state are able to
describe all experimental thermodynamic property data available for a certain fluid within their experimental uncertainty. Technical equations of
state are accurate enough for most technical applications.
Mixture properties can also be calculated using a generalized model described in the RefProp documentation. Mixtures can be composed from
the list of available pure fluids. However, mixing of pure fluids is limited.
RefProp (version 9.0) provides thermodynamic and transport properties for the pure fluids listed in Table 1. The listed FluidProp names (either
short or long) must be used to specify the fluid name in the SetFluid method. For a given fluid, the FluidProp name is the same in all
thermodynamic libraries in which the fluid is available.

IMPORTANT NOTE: FreeStanMix implements a simple Successive Substitution Model for the solution of saturation calculations that is known
to fail for close-to-critical states and performs worse for highly non-ideal mixtures. The critical point calculation for a mixture is implemented as
the pseudo-critical point calculation if the user specifies the composition, therefore the result is highly inaccurate, but an estimate is necessary
for all other type of calculations. For predefined mixtures the critical point is calculated with a "climbing" method, that is the bubble point
calculation is repeated by increasing the temperature in ever-small steps until it does not converge anymore. This is also an inaccurate estimate
even if much better than the pseudo-critical point calculation. Refer to StanMix for improved versions of these algorithms.

FreeStanMix provides thermodynamic properties for the pure fluids listed in Table 1 and 2. The listed FluidProp names (either short or long)
must be used to specify the fluid name the SetFluid method. For a given fluid, the FluidProp name is the same in all thermodynamic libraries in
which the fluid is available.

The limits for the calculation of properties are as follows:

For a pure fluid:
Pmin = Psat at freezing temperature, i.e. P(Tmin, q=1)
Pmax = P(Tmax, v = 1/2 vc)
For a mixture:
Tmin = Max[Tmin (i)]; i = 1,2,..., ncomponents
Tmax = Min[Tmax(i)]; i = 1,2,..., ncomponents
Pmin = P(Tmin, q = 0)
Pmax = P(Tmax, v = 1/2 vc,min),
vc,min = Max[vc (i)] ; i = 1,2,..., ncomponents
TPSI
TPSI implements the computer programs described in:
1. Reynolds, W.C., Thermodynamic properties in S.I., Department of Mechanical Engineering - Stanford University, Stanford, CA, 1979.
A first version of the program was written by Prof. W.C. Reynolds and distributed as a DOS executable program. The program was later
modified and expanded with more fluids and properties, as documented in:
2. Colonna, P., Rebay, S., and Silva, P., Computer Simulations of Dense Gas Flows Using Complex Equations of State for Pure Fluids and
Mixtures and State of the Art Numerical Schemes. Tech. Rep., UniversitÃ di Brescia, Via Branze, 38, 25123 Brescia, Italy, March 2002.
TPSI provides thermodynamic properties for the fluids listed in Table 1. The listed FluidProp names (either short or long) must be used to
specify the fluid name in the SetFluid method. For a given fluid, the FluidProp name is the same in all thermodynamic libraries in which the fluid
is available. Liquid metals are available at additional cost.

(1) In this model air and H2O vapor are treated as perfect gas with variable specific heats. The liquid is treated as incompressible. It uses
specific heat and saturation equations from the appropriate TPSI subroutines of the other fluids.
StanMix
StanMix is based on the iPRSV equation of state. The iPRSV equation of state is an improved, by Stryjek-Vera modified, Peng-Robinson cubic
equation of state. For mixtures the Wong-Sandler mixing rules are applied. It estimates vapor pressures accurately, the phase equilibrium
correlation for mixtures is good, and the performance for thermodynamic conditions other than saturation and for other thermodynamic
properties is satisfactory. Furthermore, this equation of state provides a good trade-off between simplicity of the model and accuracy, and the
simplicity of the formulation positively affects computational speed. It is generally known that the liquid densities are not represented accurately
by a CEoS. This applies also to the iPRSV model. In order to obtain a complete the thermodynamic model a third order polynomial function for
the calculation of the ideal gas heat capacity was added.
StanMix is documented in the following references:

Available Units and Unit sets

The default units for the thermophysical properties listed in Table 1 can be altered by using the base units listed in Table 2 using the SetUnits
method. In addition to the default (FluidProp) unit set, two different unit sets can be specified: the SI and the Anglo-Saxon unit set. Units are
per mass by default (cF. Table 1) but can be specified per mole as well. Non-dimensional properties can be obtained by defining a reference
state by using the SetRefState method.

Base units, possibly preceded by a prefix, can be used together in arbitrary combinations. For instance the unit of the specific heat capacity
(J/kgK) can be formed by combining the units of energy, mass and temperature difference dT by means of the operators listed in Table 4.
Table 4
Operator Name Meaning
symbol
. period multiply
/ slash divide
^ circumflex power
A compound unit consists of a row of base units, possibly raised to a certain power, separated by a period or a slash. A base unit raised to a
power consists of base unit followed by circumflex and after that a positive or negative number. If no power is specified, the power defaults to
1. For example if a pressure is to be specified as Newton per square meter then it can be written as N/m^2 (or N.m^-2). The number of base
units in a compound unit is unlimited. Each base unit and its power form a unit itself. This means that a period or slash in front of the preceding
unit does not affect the unit thereafter. Therefore the unit of the specific heat capacity must be written as J/kg/K, or J.kg^-1.K^-1, or J/kg.K^-
1, or J.kg^-1/K and certainly not as J/kg.K.
For more examples, see SetUnits.
CreateObject
It creates an empty FluidProp object for a certain library.
This method need not to be used if the SetFluid method is employed, because SetFluid itself calls the CreateObject method internally.
The CreateObject method can also be used to test if a certain thermodynamic library is available. For example, suppose that the RefProp library
is not installed, then CreateObject( &ldots;, "RefProp", ErrorMsg) yields ErrorMsg = "Error in FluidProp: library RefProp not available.".
The general syntax for programming languages like Fortran is:

CreateObject(FluidObj, Library, ErrorMsg)
The syntax for object oriented programming languages like VB, C++ and Matlab is:
FluidObj.CreateObject (Library, ErrorMsg)
Arguments:
FluidObj: The object that is created

Library: String, library name (possible values: TPSI, RefProp, StanMix, GasMix, IF97)
ErrorMsg: String
Note: this method is not available in Excel.
ReleaseObjects
It deletes all FluidProp objects from the memory.
This method should always be called at the end of a program execution.
Syntax:
ReleaseObjects()
Predefined mixtures
Mixtures for which the composition is set in the input file (e.g. .smx files for StanMix, .mix files for RefProp).
Custom defined mixtures

Mixtures for which the composition is defined by the user by providing the Conc() vector
SetFluid
It defines the library to be used for the calculation of the fluid properties and the fluid.
It returns an Object Identifier to which methods for property calculation can refer (see e.g. Enthalpy).
The general syntax is:

SetFluid( ModelName, nComp, Comp(), Conc(), ErrorMsg)
The syntax for Excel is:
SetFluid( ModelName, nComp, Comp(), Conc(), UnitObj)
Arguments:
ModelName: String (possible values: TPSI, RefProp, StanMix, GasMix, IF97)

nComp: Long Integer, number of components
Comp(): String Array, names of components (IMPORTANT: it must match exactly the string returned by the GetFluidNames method
but it is not case dependent; both short and long names can be used.)
Conc(): Double Array, concentrations of components
ErrorMsg: String
UnitObj: In Excel it is the variable returned by SetUnits. It is optional: leave it blank (" ") for default units.
Notes:
FluidProp 2 uses fluid names for all available fluids (returned by the GetFluidNames method) that are common to all libraries; FluidProp 1
employed fluid names that were specific to each good sentence library (returned by the obsolete GetCompSetmethod); for compatibility issues
both names can still be used.
Examples:
For pure fluids or predefined mixtures:

SetFluid("TPSI", 1, "methane", 1, ErrorMsg)
SetFluid("StanMix", 1, "methane", 1, ErrorMsg)
SetFluid("IF97", 1, "", "", ErrorMsg)
Note: in this case also the Comp argument is ignored because the IF97 model applies only to water.
SetFluid("StanMix", 1, "benzene/toluene", { 0,5\0,5 }, ErrorMsg)
Note: the Conc() argument is not ignored, even though it is a predefined mixture(in this case benzene (0.5) / toluene (0.5) ). For predefined
mixtures SetFluid still needs to be called with an array specifying the concentrations of the fluids. The concentration can also be explicitly
specified with Conc() as in the following examples about custom defined mixtures:
Comp(1) = "N2"
Conc(1) = 0.7729
Comp(2) = "O2"
Conc(2) = 0.2075
Comp(3) = "H2O"
Conc(3) = 0.0101
Comp(4) = "AR"
Conc(4) = 0.0092
Comp(5) = "CO2"
Conc(5) = 0.0003
SetFluid("GasMix", 5, Comp, Conc, ErrorMsg)
Comp(1) = "R32"
Conc(1) = 0.69762
Comp(2) = "R125"
Conc(2) = 0.30238
SetFluid("RefProp", 2, Comp, Conc, ErrorMsg)
Comp(1) = "benzene"
Conc(1) = 0.7
Comp(2) = "toluene"
Conc(2) = 0.3
SetFluid("StanMix", 2, Comp, Conc, ErrorMsg)
Excel example:
SetFluid("TPSI", "propane", "", A1)
Notes: A1 is a cell containing the value returned by SetUnits. Using default FluidProp units it is just: SetFluid("TPSI", "propane")
The error message is not in the arguments list; in case an error occurs during the calculation, the value returned by the function is a
string containing the error description.
GetFluid
It returns the library name and composition of the working fluid.
The general syntax for programming languages like Fortran is:

GetFluid(FluidObj, Library, nComp, Comp(), Conc(), ErrorMsg)
FluidObj.GetFluid( Library, nComp, Comp(), Conc(), ErrorMsg)
Arguments:
FluidObj: An object variable created at runtime

Library: String, name of library
nComp: Long Integer, number of components
Comp(): String Array, names of components
Conc(): Double Array, concentrations of components
ErrorMsg: String

In case of a predefined mixture and if nComp = -1 is assigned as input value then the composition of the mixture is returned instead of
just the mixture name.
GetFluidNames
It returns a string vector containing the names of the fluids available in the specified library. Both the long and short name formats can be
specified.
The general syntax is:

GetFluidNames( Type, Library, nFluids, FluidSet, ErrorMsg)
The syntax for Excel is:

GetFluidNames( Type, Library)
Arguments:
Type: a string containing either "short", "s", "long" or "l", which indicates the wanted format for the names (input)
Library: a string containing the library name; if Library is blank (" ") or "all" then all names of all fluids available are returned (input)
nFluids: number of fluids in the library (output)

FluidSet: set of fluids in the library (output)
ErrorMsg: String (output)
Excel Examples:
GetFluidNames("s", "all")
GetFluidNames("s", "GasMix")
GetFluidNames("l", "RefProp")
GetFluidNames("short", "StanMix")
GetFluidNames("Long", "TPSI")
Note: in case an error occurs during execution, the value returned by the function is a string containing the error description.
GetCompSet
OBSOLETE
This method has been maintained for compatibility with FluidProp 1. Use GetFluidNames instead.
AllProps
It returns all available thermophysical properties, given 2 input thermodynamic variables as defined by the InputSpec argument (see
Thermodynamic State definitions).
The properties that are calculated and the default units are listed in the table of available Thermodynamic and Transport Properties.
The general syntax for procedural programming languages like Fortran is:
call AllProps( FluidObj, InputSpec, Value1, Value2, P, T, v, d, h, s, u, q, x, y, cv, cp, c, alpha, beta, chi, fi, ksi, psi, zeta, theta, kappa,
gamma, eta, lambda, ErrorMsg)
FluidObj.AllProps( InputSpec, Value1, Value2, P, T, v, d, h, s, u, q, x, y, cv, cp, c, alpha, beta, chi, fi, ksi, psi, zeta, theta, kappa, gamma,
eta, lambda, ErrorMsg)
The general syntax for Excel is:
AllProps( FluidObj, InputSpec, Value1, Value2)
Arguments:
FluidObj: In Excel it is the variable returned by SetFluid, in other programs or programming environments it is an object
variable created at runtime.
InputSpec: String
Value1: Double (input)
P, T, v, d, Double (output)
h, s, u, q:
x, y: 1-dimensional double array (output)
cv, cp, c, Double (output)
alpha, beta,
chi, fi, ksi,
psi, zeta, theta,
kappa, gamma,
eta, lambda:
Excel Example:
AllProps( A1, "Ts", 50, 0.1)
Notes: A1 is a cell containing the value returned by SetFluid.

The error message is not in the arguments list; in case an error occurs during the calculation, the value returned by the function is a string
containing the error description.
The possible input specifications are listed in the table of available Thermodynamic State definitions.
The function returns an array with 23 elements, namely P, T, v, d, h, s, u, q, cv, cp, c, alpha, beta, chi, fi, ksi, psi, zeta, theta, kappa, gamma,
eta, lambda
AllPropsSat
It returns all available thermophysical properties and some saturation properties as function of pressure P, given 2 input thermodynamic
variables as defined by the InputSpec argument (see Thermodynamic State definitions).
The thermophysical properties that are calculated and the default units are listed in the table of available Thermodynamic and Transport
Properties. The following saturation properties are calculated (default units):
d_liq saturated liquid density [kg/m3]
d_vap saturated vapor density [kg/m3]
h_liq saturated liquid enthalpy [kJ/kg]
h_vap saturated vapor enthalpy [kJ/kg]
T_sat saturation temperature [°C]
dd_liq_dP first-order partial derivative of the saturated liquid density with respect to the pressure [kg/m3.bar]
dd_vap_dP first-order partial derivative of the saturated vapor density with respect to the pressure [kg/m3.bar]
dh_liq_dP first-order partial derivative of the saturated liquid enthalpy with respect to the pressure [kJ/kg.bar]
dh_vap_dP first-order partial derivative of the saturated vapor enthalpy with respect to the pressure [kJ/kg.bar]
dT_sat_dP first-order derivative of the saturation temperature with respect to the pressure [K/bar]
The general syntax for procedural programming languages like Fortran is:

The function returns an array with 5 elements.
SetUnits
It defines the units to be used for the calculation of thermophysical properties in FluidProp. The use of this method in Excel is slightly different
from its use in other client programs or programming environments.
The syntax for defining the unit set for Excel is as follows:
SetUnits(UnitSet, MassOrMole, Properties, Units)
The syntax for programming languages like Fortran is:
SetUnits( FluidObj, UnitSet, MassOrMole, Properties, Units)
FluidObj.SetUnits( UnitSet, MassOrMole, Properties, Units)
Important note
In order to use the SetUnits method, an object variable must already have been created. The unit settings defined by the SetUnits method
apply to all object variables that are used in the current application.
In Excel the handling of fluid objects is different: the units must be defined for each working fluid defined with the SetUnits function. Hence the
SetUnits function returns an Object Identifier to which the SetFluid method can refer.
The provided example might further clarify the use of the SetUnits function in Excel.
Arguments
FluidObj: An object variable created at runtime.

UnitSet: String indicating the name of the unit set to be used (see Table 1 in Available Units and Unit sets);
It can be:
- " ", "FP", or "FluidProp" (default)
- "SI"
- "Anglo-Saxon"
MassOrMole: String that specifies the base unit for the selected properties;
It can be:
- "PerMass" or " " (default)
- "PerMole"
This modifier overwrites the specification possibly set with UnitSet.
Properties: String indicating a list with one or more properties (separated by commas) for which the user wants to specify a unit different
from the specified unit set.
If no units are to be modified then a blank must be entered (" ").
This modifier overwrites the unit specification of the specified properties in UnitSet and MassOrMole.
For example: to modify the units of pressure and temperature, Properties is: "P,T"
Units: String indicating a list with one or more units separated by commas in the same order as the property symbols in Properties.
For the available units, see Table 2 in Available Units and Unit sets).
The number of unit symbols must the same as the number of property symbols in Properties. If no properties have been
specified in Properties then a blank (" ") must be entered.
For example: to modify the units of pressure and temperature in pounds per square inch and degrees Fahrenheit, Units must
be: "psia, °F".
Examples
To specify the SI unit set for all units except for the pressure and temperature, which should be in bar and in Celsius degrees, enter:
SetUnits( "SI", " ", "P,T", "bar,°C")
To specify that all units of the specified unit set must be per mole instead of per mass, enter:
SetUnits( "SI", "PerMole", "P,T", "bar,°C")
To specify the FluidProp unit set for all units except for the enthalpy and the entropy, which have to be in Megajoules instead of Kilojoules and
except for the pressure, which has to be in Newton per square meter, enter:
SetUnits( " ", " ", "h, s, P", "MJ/kg, MJ/kg/K, N/m^2")
To specify the Anglo-Saxon unit set for all units, except that all units have to be per mole instead of per pound, enter:
SetUnits("Anglo-Saxon", "PerMole", " ", " ")
SetRefState
It defines the reference state in case both the state definitions and the calculated properties must be non-dimensional.
The syntax for programming languages like Fortran is:

SetRefState ( FluidObj, T_ref, P_ref, ErrorMsg)
FluidObj.SetRefState( T_ref, P_ref, ErrorMsg)
Notes
In order to use the SetRefState method, an object variable must have been created. The reference state defined by the SetRefState method
applies to all object variables that are used in the current application.
This method is not available in Excel.
Arguments
FluidObj: An object variable created at runtime.
T_ref: Reference temperature, double, unit: °C

P_ref: Reference pressure, double, unit: bar
ErrorMsg: Error message if reference state cannot be set, string
Example
To define the reference state to be T = 50 °C and P = 2 bar:
SetRefState( 50, 2, ErrorMsg)
General Information
The folder <FluidProp folder>\ Sample Clients contains examples of client programs for the following programs or development
environments:
1. The Mathworks Matlab Release 13 and 14

2. Microsoft Visual Basic 6
3. Intel Visual Fortran 9.0
4. Microsoft Visual C++ 6
5. Borland C++ Builder 6.0
6. Microsoft Excel (2000, XP, ...)
7. Maple 9
In all examples the same calculations are executed. The Visual Basic and C++ Builder examples are applications based on MS-Windows
scrollable windows, while the Fortran, Visual C++ and Borland C++ client are just console applications. Once FluidProp is installed properly, you
can run all the executables.
In order to adapt or extend an example you must have the corresponding programming system and open the enclosed project file.
In order to use C++ Builder as we did, special installation steps should be accomplished. See the Readme.txt file in the C++ Builder folder.
For the C++ examples the names of the source files are the same. However, the contents of the files are slightly different. This mainly has to
do with the different way in which specific libraries available in the different programming environments handle string variables. Nevertheless,
methods have been added in each example, so that FluidProp can be used in the same way.
BD client Example
Using FluidProp from Borland Delphi is very easy. Look into the example provided in:
<FluidProp folder>\Sample Clients\Borland Delphi
Matlab and Simulink Examples

Using FluidProp from Matlab is very easy. Look into the examples provided in:
<FluidProp folder>\Sample Clients\The MathWorks Matlab
Try running the Test_FluidProp.m procedure.
COM, the technology on which FluidProp is based, is (well enough) supported from Matlab Release 13 on.
Still some little discrepancies from the standard in the Matlab implementation of COM make the SetFluid function a little different. The setting of
the Model and the Fluid in Matlab is done with the SetFluid_M function (the _M denote a different function from the standard FluidProp
SetFluid).
General syntax:
ErrorMsg = invoke(ObjID,'SetFluid_M', ModelName, nComp, Comp, Conc)
Arguments:
ObjID: Object variable as set by the actxserver Matlab function (e.g. FP = actxserver ('FluidProp.FluidProp');)
ModelName: String (possible values: TPSI, RefProp, StanMix, GasMix, IF97)
nComp: Integer
Comp(): String containing the comma separated list of the components (IMPORTANT: it must match exactly the string returned by
GetFluidNames but it is not case dependent; both short and long names can be used.)
Conc(): Double Array. Dimensions: nComp rows X 2 columns. The second column is formed by 0's. This is due to the Matlab
implementation of COM: arrays can only be passed if they are matrices and not vectors.
ErrorMsg: String (value returned)
Examples:
Model = 'GasMix';
nCmp = 5;
Cmp = 'AR,CO2,H2O,N2,O2';
Cnc = [0.0092,0; 0.0003,0; 0.0101,0; 0.7729,0; 0.2075,0];
ErrorMsg = invoke(FP,'SetFluid_M',Model,nCmp,Cmp,Cnc)
Model = 'RefProp';
nCmp = 1;
Cmp = 'Toluene';
Cnc = [1, 0];
ErrorMsg = invoke(FP,'SetFluid_M',Model,nCmp,Cmp,Cnc)
Any of the functions to compute a fluid property can be called with the same syntax, e.g.:
[Enthalpy,ErrorMsg] = invoke(FP,'Enthalpy','PT', P, T);
Alternatively, one can also call a FluidProp function with:
[Enthalpy,ErrorMsg] = FP.Enthalpy("PT", P, T);
Special note for Simulink:

Unfortunately object variables cannot be passed between blocks so they must be stored in the Matlab Workspace.
Look into the provided SimulinkExample.mdl file for a simple implementation.

In one cell enter (e.g. A1), set the library and the fluid by inserting the SetFluid function:
=SetFluid(ModelName, FluidName)
e.g: =SetFluid("TPSI","Butane")
for a custom defined mixture: =SetFluid("RefProp",{"Butane","Propane"},{0.5,0.5})
To calculate properties, in another cell insert a function with the appropriate arguments:
=Enthalpy($A$1,"Tq",50,1)
The first argument is the address of the cell in which the SetFluid function was entered. All arguments can be cell addresses.
Example with different units:

In case different units are to be used, then in one cell (e.g. A2), specify these units by inserting the SetUnits function:
=SetUnits(UnitSet, MassOrMole, Properties, Units)

e.g: =SetUnits( "SI", "PerMole", "P,T", "bar,°C")
Then the fluid can be entered:

e.g. =SetFluid("TPSI","Butane"," ",$A$2)
for a custom defined mixture: =SetFluid("RefProp",{"Butane","Propane"},{0.5,0.5},$A$2)
The last argument is the address of the cell in which the SetUnits function was entered.
Remark: In this help file we assume the decimal symbol to be a period ("."), the digital grouping symbol a space (e.g. 10 000)
and the list separator a comma (e.g. "CH4","H2O", "N2"). The correct symbol depends on your Regional and Language Options
(see Control Panel of the MS-Windows operating system) or your Excel settings (in Excel XP: Tools -> Options: International tab).
You can also open the file Excel Sample.xls in the folder Client samples\Microsoft Excel to check which symbols your system is
using.
