This is the current version of the programs for "Introductory Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics" by J.R. Elliott, Jr.

, and C.T. Lira described at http://chethermo.net ABOUT THE PROGRAM LOCATIONS IN THE DIRECTORIES The programs are contained in subdirectories by classification. The files are explained briefly in appendix A of the textbook, or in the file appendixA.pdf which is an online version of appendix A that can be viewed with the free Adobe Acrobat reader availabe from http://get.adobe.com/reader. Excel- Spreadsheet files Matlab - Matlab files Note that an online supplement is available for getting started with MATLAB and Excel Solver, GettingStartedSolvers.pdf. UPDATE INFORMATION 2.05 12/1/12 - Matlab/Props/props.mat has been updated. When pasting from propx. xlsx, Cp values were truncated to the fixed format of the display. This created slight errors and slight differences between the spreadsheets and Matlab. This h as been fixed by changing to general format before copy/paste. 2.04 6/5/12 - Matlab changes. Using struct variables to load Matlab databases, a lso some minor improvements in various Matlab codes. Added Chap15/PRfug.m. Updat ed Matlab QuickRef doc. 2.03 5/9/12 - Matlab/Chap17/Kcalc.m was improved for handling cases with missing data. Better printing of property values. 2.02 4/13/12 - Excel/Props.xls and Matlab/Props/props.mat were updated. Matlab/C hap17 files were added. A bug in Matlab/Chap17/Kcalc.m was fixed. The Matlab Qui ckRef was updated. Other minor changes. 2.01 3/15/12 - The Matlab/Chap08-09 folder has been revised to provide for match ing volume. 2.00 1/15/2012 PRMIX.exe and ESD.exe were discontinued. Additional files were ad ded for second edition. 1/22/2011 Files were updated for consistency with revised chapter/example number s. 1/23/2010 Matlab folders where added. The HP and TI programs were discontinued. The PRPURE content was discontinued. Excel/Rxns.xls was updated to use full Cp p olynomials for adiabatic reactors. Preos.xls was updated to use the latest value of R from NIST. 8/11/05 Several updates were included: 1. Residue.xls reference to Solver.xla was changed to one that is more common. This will save some users time in specifying the directory for Solver.xla. 2. Steam.xls was updated to correct errors located by user Edward D. Thr om. 3. HP programs were updated to be compatible with the HP48gII. 4. The appendix was updated to reflect the changes in the HP programs.

2/28/05 The ftp site was discontinued. The files are now available from the web server. 11/12/04 The readme files for the FORTRAN files were improved to provide better instructions to avoid the 'disappearing window' when the program ends. 2/16/04 An error was fixed in prmix.exe in the calculation of the entropy depart ure for mixtures. 1/10/00 Apxcomu.pdf was updated to match the version in the text (only formattin g changes). The following spreadsheets were updated improving formula usage of named ranges and labels: Actcoeff.xls, Gammafit.xls, Preos.xls, Dewcalc.xls. In addition, functionality of UNIFAC(vle) was increased on Actcoeff.xls to permit some flexibility in groups listed in the table.
