sandlerprops¶
Digitized pure-component properties database from Sandler’s 5th edition¶
sandlerprops implements a Python interface to pure-component properties database found in Chemical, Biochemical, and Engineering Thermodynamics (5th edition) by Stan Sandler (Wiley, USA).
Warning
This package should be used for educational purposes only.
Features¶
Given a compound name recongized by the database, retrieve:
Critical properties (Tc, Pc, Vc)
Acentric factor (ω)
Antoine coefficients for vapor pressure correlations
Heat capacity correlation coefficients
Heat of vaporization correlation coefficients
Elemental composition and molecular weight
Standard-state enthalpy and entropy of formation at 298.15 K and 1 bar
Quick Start¶
Installation:
pip install sandlerprops
Basic usage from the command line:
sandlerprops show methane
Basic usage from Python:
from sandlerprops import get_database
P = get_database()
result = P.get_compound("methane")
print(f"Critical temperature: {result.Tc}")
print(f"Critical pressure: {result.Pc}")
print(f"Acentric factor: {result.Omega}")
print(f"Molecular weight: {result.Molwt}")
