Gas Dynamics

This program calculates thermodynamic and transport properties of gaseous, liquid and solid species (TP, HP and SP), according to U.S. customary and International units. The user can analyze power cycles (Carnot and Brayton), power cycle components and processes (compression, combustion and expansion) and compressible flow (velocity of sound, Mach number, stagnation and static properties, nozzle, normal shock, diffuser and thrust). This software package should prove to be a good tool for those who are involved at various levels with design, operation and management of propulsion systems. It should provide the user with the opportunity to more quickly, easily and effectively do his/her work, explore more options, save time and give more confidence in carrying out engineering calculations Thermodynamic and Transport Properties: Temperature and Pressure (270 K < T < 5,000 K), Enthalpy and Pressure and Entropy and Pressure Power Cycles: Carnot and Brayton (Power and Propulsion) Power Cycle Components/Processes: Compression, Combustion (Coal/Oil/Gas) and Expansion Compressible Flow: Velocity of Sound, Mach Number, Properties (Stagnation and Static), Nozzle, Normal Shock, Diffuser and Thrust Operating System Requirements: Windows '98 or higher
