Interfacing Models for Thermal Separation Processes with Fluid Property Data from External Sources

So far, when modelling processes that demand for multi-phase and multi-component fluid property data, the user has to implement the required media models in the Modelica language as these types of fluids are not supported by Modelica.Media.This paper presents a first approach on how to implement fluid property data in process models of an existing library from external sources and highlights which problems have to be overcome.Furthermore, it provides recommendations for the design of an efficient and user-friendly interface to external media packages.
