Software written in python that simulate thermodynamic processes.
Construct thermodynamic cycles, calculate state and processes variables such as temperature, entropy, work e.t.c., create several diagrams (T-s, h-s, P-v e.t.c.) and save all the above to .png and .csv files correspondingly.
Currently the following working fluids are supported:
-
Ideal gas,
-
Van der Walls gas and
-
Two Phase fluid.
The factory software design pattern is heavily used.
Implementation of the ideal gas formulations for Isobaric, Isochoric and Isentropical processes.The others types of processes are to be made.
Solving the Van der Walls equation numericaly using Newtons method. Works for Isobaric and Isothermal processes. The others types of processes are to be made.
Using @CoolProp library to calculate system variables. Works for Isobaric and Adiabatic processes. The others types of processes are to be made.
Future improvements are to comment the code and implement all types of processes for each working fluid.
