Description

This keyword allows to set specific heat capacity of the current fluid.

Parameters

The first parameter (int) sets the heat capacity model. Possible values are:

  • 1 -- constant heat capacity
  • 2 -- ???
  • 3 -- ?
  • 4 -- ?
  • 11 -- mole fraction weighted average of molar isochoric specific heat capacities converted into isobaric mixture specific heat capacity (ideal conversion)
  • 12 -- mass fraction weighted average of isobaric specific heat capacities using a linearised model
  • 15 -- ?

The default is model no. 1.

Warning: Currently there are benchmarks only for models 1, 12 and 15. The other models might not work!

The subsequent values specify additional parameters depending on the model:

  • model 1: (double) specific heat capacity
  • model 2: (double) C_0 ??
  • model 3: (double, double, int)
    • T_Latent1: minimum temperature for phase change
    • T_Latent2: maximum temperature for phase change
    • heat_phase_change_curve number of the curve from which heatt capacity values are obtained. This curve is defined in the rfd file.
  • model 4: (double*4) T_Latent1, T_Latent2, specific_heat_capacity, latent_heat
    • T_Latent1: minimum temperature for phase change
    • T_Latent2: maximum temperature for phase change
  • model 11, 12: no additional parameters
  • model 15: (double*4) cp[0], ..., cp[3]
