PhysProps is
an advanced, pure component, thermodynamic / physical property data
base and
chemical property
estimating application for Windows (tm)
based
computer
systems. The database is composed of over 6,500 chemical specie names
and
their synonyms (both organic and inorganic
compounds).
The
software was designed with the user in mind and offers simplicity of
use,
a logical user interface, and flexible physical property data
presentation.
For a
multicomponent
thermodynamic and physical property application, learn about our other
software
product, MixProps here.
Searching
through
the physical property database is extremely simple. Simply
type in the first
few
letters
of the compound's common or IUPAC name (International Union of Pure and
Applied Chemistry), and PhysProps "search
as you type"
feature quickly
finds
the compound of interest. The data base supports 16
intrinsic
physical properties
such as critical temperature (Tc), critical pressure (Pc), critical
volume (Vc), normal boiling point (Tnbp), melting point (Tmp), heat of
formation (dHf), Gibb's free energy of formation (dGf), entropy of
formation (dSf), heat of fusion (dHfus), and acentric factor.
There are also 12 temperature dependent
physical properties
such
as vapor pressure, densities, viscosities, thermal
conductivities, and
heat capacities. The temperature dependent properties can be
viewed
in a tabular or graphical format.
In
addition, if your
particular compound is not in the database, physical and chemical
properties can be estimated
from an advanced and extremely powerful property estimation
module
within PhysProps.
The
estimation routines includes the methods of Joback/Lydersen,
Lee-Kesler,
Pitzer, Letsou-Stiel, Rowlinson-Bondi, and Misic-Thodos. This
set
of estimation routines is ideal for engineers and chemists who need to
obtain estimates of properties for complex compounds that possibly have
never been synthesized before. And as with the data base,
estimated
properties can be viewed in a tabular or graphical format.
Confusion
and mistakes
caused by mixed or inconsistent units of measurements are eliminated
with PhysProps.
Users
may select data to be displayed from any one of three
standard
units
sets (American Engineering, metric, or SI) or set any unit
individually. PhysProps
will
also remember the selected unit set for future sessions.
Also
included within PhysProps
is
a graphically based Periodic Table of the
elements. At
the
press of a button, critical information on any element may be instantly
obtained. Access to a scientific calculator is also quickly
available
from within the application.
Examine
the screenshots
below to gain a feeling of the intuitive user interface PhysProps was
designed around:
And as is
found with
all premier Windows applications, PhysProps supports cutting,
copying, and pasting of all data generated to allow
incorporating
the
results into external word processors and spreadsheets. The
tables
and graphs produced may also be cut and pasted into spreadsheets
and word
processing applications to allow users to generate the
quality
reports
that are necessary in today's business world. Users may also
generate publication
quality print-outs of any data table or graph produced.
