By Chris Martin crm28@psu.edu

PYroMat is a flexible platform for conveniently working with thermodynamic data. The expanding collection of substances includes data for the properties people need most, exposed in an intuitively designed object interface Come read more.

Installation from the Python Package Index

If you have pip installed, you can install PYroMat with a single command.

$ pip install pyromat 

If you are upgrading, you can always use

$ pip install pyromat --upgrade

See the introduction of the documentation for more information!

Configuration

See pyro/defaults.py for a heavily commented example of a PYro configuration.

See the configuration chapter of the documentation for detailed descriptions of each parameter.

Getting started

>>> import pyromat as pm
>>> O2 = pm.get('ig.O2')
>>> h = O2.h(492,1.01)  # enthalpy at 492K, 1.01bar
>>> pm.info('O2')     # where did these data come from?
>>> dir(O2)             # what other methods are available?
>>> pm.info()         # what other species are available? (lots)

Happy calculating!
