Key applications:Thermal properties of aqueous fluids under extreme conditionsNucleation rates in metastable steamSolubilities of salts at elevated temperatures and pressuresPartition coefficients
Advantages:Cost and time savings over laboratory measurementsReplaces empirical extrapolations and fits
IAPWS Simulation Task Group:Promotes modeling of aqueous fluids relevant to power cycles and other industrial applications, and provides an international forum for exchange of results of research (PVT databases, analytical fits, computer programs).

Properties of Working Fluids:Properties of Working Fluids:
“Releases provide carefully evaluated, internationally agreed-upon formulations of properties for which measurement of high quality exist over a wide range of states”.
“Guidelines are carefully evaluated, internationally agreed-upon formulations of properties for which measurement of high quality do not exist over a wide range of states or can not be made”.

Water-Oxygen Mixtures:Water-Oxygen Mixtures: Simulations and EOS
• Analytical fits for simulated PVT data
- EOS for the mixture () has the same form as for pure solvent, water (component ),
- Mixture parameters are derived from the parameters of the single-component EOS
