- Hi.
-
- I'm interested in a thermodynamic model of air over the following
- range:
-
- Pressure: 2e-4 atm to ~10000 atm
- Temperature: 100 K to 2500 K
-
- outside the vapor dome. I've already got William Reynolds' 1979
- model from his book _Thermodynamic_Properties_in_SI_, and I'm
- looking for others.
-
- Specifically, I'd like h(rho,T), P(rho,T), s(rho,T) if possible.
-
- Any help would be appreciated, especially FORTRAN code, if
- available.
-
- Thanks.
