Class Reference

class Toluene()

Parameters:
temperature: Temperature, default = Temperature(25,"C")

Methods

The properties of the Toluene class are calculated using correlations or CoolProp:

phase(): Returns "liquid" or "gas" depending on temperature and pressure.
density(): Returns the density (ρ) of Toluene.
specific_heat(): Returns specific heat capacity (Cp) as a function of temperature.
viscosity(): Returns dynamic viscosity (μ) using empirical correlations.
thermal_conductivity(): Returns thermal conductivity (k).
vapor_pressure(): Returns the vapor pressure at the given temperature using Antoine correlation.
enthalpy(): Returns enthalpy (h) or enthalpy of vaporization (ΔHvap) based on temperature.
