Abstract:
A new method that combines look-up table(LUT) and IAPWS-IF97 formulation is presented for fast calculation of supercritical water thermophysical properties.The pressure and temperature ranges are critical pressure-100 MPa,10~800 ℃,respectively.The comparison shows that the developed method can be used in the above stated range for direct industrial computation.The computation efficiency shows that the method can shorten the computing time greatly.A universal program for computation of supercritical water has been developed using the developed method.
