Detailed Description

The NASA 9 polynomial parameterization for one temperature range.

This parameterization expresses the heat capacity via a 7 coefficient polynomial. Note that this is the form used in the 2002 NASA equilibrium program. A reference to the form is provided below:

"NASA Glenn Coefficients for Calculating Thermodynamic Properties of Individual Species," B. J. McBride, M. J. Zehe, S. Gordon NASA/TP-2002-211556, Sept. 2002

Nine coefficients $(a_0,\dots,a_6)$ are used to represent $ C_p^0(T)$ , $ H^0(T)$ , and $ S^0(T) $ as polynomials in $ T $ :

$\frac{C_p^0(T)}{R} = a_0 T^{-2} + a_1 T^{-1} + a_2 + a_3 T + a_4 T^2 + a_5 T^3 + a_6 T^4$

$\frac{H^0(T)}{RT} = - a_0 T^{-2} + a_1 \frac{\ln(T)}{T} + a_2 + a_3 T + a_4 T^2 + a_5 T^3 + a_6 T^4 + \frac{a_7}{T}$

$\frac{s^0(T)}{R} = - \frac{a_0}{2} T^{-2} - a_1 T^{-1} + a_2 \ln(T) + + a_3 T \frac{a_4}{2} T^2 + \frac{a_5}{3} T^3 + \frac{a_6}{4} T^4 + a_8$

The standard state is assumed to be an ideal gas at the standard pressure of 1 bar, for gases. For condensed species, the standard state is the pure crystalline or liquid substance at the standard pressure of 1 atm.

These NASA representations may have multiple temperature regions through the use of the Nasa9PolyMultiTempRegion object, which uses multiple copies of this Nasa9Poly1 object to handle multiple temperature regions.

void updateProperties	(	const doublereal *	tt,
		doublereal *	cp_R,
		doublereal *	h_RT,
		doublereal *	s_R
	)			const `[virtual]`

Update the properties for this species, given a temperature polynomial.

This method is called with a pointer to an array containing the functions of temperature needed by this parameterization, and three pointers to arrays where the computed property values should be written. This method updates only one value in each array.

Temperature Polynomial: tt[0] = t; tt[1] = t*t; tt[2] = t*t*t; tt[3] = t*t*t*t; tt[4] = 1.0/t; tt[5] = 1.0/(t*t); tt[6] = std::log(t);

Parameters:

	tt	vector of temperature polynomials
	cp_R	Vector of Dimensionless heat capacities. (length m_kk).
	h_RT	Vector of Dimensionless enthalpies. (length m_kk).
	s_R	Vector of Dimensionless entropies. (length m_kk).

Compute the reference-state property of one species.

Given temperature T in K, this method updates the values of the non-dimensional heat capacity at constant pressure, enthalpy, and entropy, at the reference pressure, Pref of one of the species. The species index is used to reference into the cp_R, h_RT, and s_R arrays.

Temperature Polynomial: tt[0] = t; tt[1] = t*t; tt[2] = t*t*t; tt[3] = t*t*t*t; tt[4] = 1.0/t; tt[5] = 1.0/(t*t); tt[6] = std::log(t);

Parameters:

	temp	Temperature (Kelvin)
	cp_R	Vector of Dimensionless heat capacities. (length m_kk).
	h_RT	Vector of Dimensionless enthalpies. (length m_kk).
	s_R	Vector of Dimensionless entropies. (length m_kk).
