ThermoState

This package provides a wrapper around CoolProp that integrates Pint for easy state management in any unit system.

Installation

Conda

The preferred installation method is to use conda. Using Conda, ThermoState can be installed for either Python 3.5, 3.6, or 3.7. If you have an existing Conda environment with one of those Python versions, installing ThermoState can be done by

conda install -c bryanwweber thermostate conda-forge::pint

This installs Pint from the conda-forge channel; if you would like to use another channel to install Pint, change the conda-forge to be the name of the channel you prefer. If Pint is already installed in your environment, the conda-forge::pint can be omitted entirely.

If you do not have an environment with Python 3.5, 3.6, or 3.7, you can create a new environment with

conda create -n thermostate -c bryanwweber thermostate conda-forge::pint

Pip

Alternatively, ThermoState can be installed with pip.

pip install thermostate
