Here is a list of interesting books about equilibrium

This books include a complete listing of the program implementing the theory explain in the books. The code is in fortran

This book explain all the necessary theory to understand equilibrium, it also include a lot of listing of source code.

This one also explain theory. No source code but table of thermodynamics data.

I have found all those books at my engineering university library. You should be able to found to books. If you can't, I could scan some interesting part and send it by email.
