EQAIRS is a set of FORTRAN 77 routines for computing the thermodynamic and transport properties of equilibrium air for temperatures from 100 to 30000 K. EQAIRS computes these properties over a pressure range of 1.0e-4 to 1.0e2 atm. The properties computed include
  • enthalpy,
  • total specific heat,
  • compressibility factor,
  • viscosity, and
  • the total values of thermal conductivity and Prandtl number.
The various properties are calculated through the use of temperature dependent curve-fits for the pressure range given above. The curve fits are based on mixture values calculated from an 11-species air model. Individual species properties used in the mixture relations were obtained from a recent study by the program authors. It is desirable to have these equilibrium air properties computed by curve-fits as opposed to tabulated values because curve-fits generally permit more efficient computation for flow-field analyses. In addition, for accurate calculations, it is preferable that the thermodynamic and transport properties be computed in a selfconsistent manner from the same set of data as in the present case.


EQAIRS carries the NASA case number LAR-14760. It was originally released as part of the NASA COSMIC collection.
