Function giving water property requested.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – Options are: ‘temp’, ‘pres’, ‘vf’: fluid specific volume [m3/kg], ‘rhof’: fluid density [kg/m3] - reverse of vf, ‘vg’, ‘hfg’, ‘Cpf’, ‘Cpg’, ‘muf’: dynamic viscosity, ‘mug’, ‘nug’: cinematic viscosity of vapor (gas), ‘nuf’: cinematic viscosity of fluid water (uses ‘muf’ and ‘rhof’) ‘kf’, ‘kg’, ‘Prf’, ‘Prg’, ‘st’, ‘betaf’
  • T (float,) – Temperature for which the property is searched N.B.: if name == ‘temp’, T must be replaced by pression [in bar]
Returns:

Value of physical quantity requested through parameter ‘name’.

Return type:

float
