document icon Thermodynamics (updated May 2011, known as version 3.11)
This document contains a new specification of the CAPE-OPEN Thermodynamic and Physical Properties interfaces. The specification has two parts: a conceptual model of how CAPE-OPEN Thermodynamic and Physical Properties components interact with their host environments and a detailed reference section describing each method of the interfaces.
Changes in this version:
This interface specification is a major revision of the previous CAPE-OPEN Thermodynamic and Physical Properties interfaces document published under version 1.0. The functionality covered by the interfaces is slightly extended, but the main motivations for the changes are simplification, increased flexibility and the removal of ambiguities. These are the issues that emerged most strongly from testing implementations of version 1.0 of the specification. Version 1.1 by itself, as well as its documentation, are designed to make it easier to understand the interfaces, and therefore to implement CAPE-OPEN components, and to make interoperability of CAPE-OPEN components more easily achievable.
An Errata and Clarifications document has been developed by the CO-LaN Thermo SIG and its current version, dated January 2012, has been approved for release by the Thermo SIG. This document should be used together with the complete interface specification.
