ProSim announces the release of DIPPR L03+, an extended pure components properties library of close to 2000 compounds, based on AIChE's (American Institute of Chemical Engineers) DIPPR database, the main reference for the thermophysical properties of pure components.
Last year ProSim signed an agreement with BYU (Brigham Young University - exclusive DIPPR distributor) on the distribution of the DIPPR database (Design Institute for Physical Properties) to distribute the original DIPPR® database worldwide within its thermodynamic properties calculation or process simulation software. With this, ProSim joined the very few companies in the world to distribute this database.
The DIPPR database (Lite 2003 release) distributed by ProSim, contains the properties of 1,743 compounds, including all industrially relevant components. The properties covered include data for 29 fixed-value properties (molar weight, critical temperature, critical pressure, etc.) and correlation coefficients for 15 temperature-dependent properties (liquid and vapor heat capacity, vapor pressure, liquid and vapor viscosity, etc).
ProSim's DIPPR L03+ is an enriched version of this database. It provides information for close to 2000 compounds. This additional information comes from in depth research projects and studies conducted by our thermodynamic experts. All data has been carefully selected, tested and validated through intensive use in thermodynamic calculation. "With DIPPR L03+, users have access to the best pure components properties data available. This guarantees them the most reliable results when performing thermodynamic calculations and process simulation, in particular with ProSim's software," explains Stéphane Déchelotte, Chief Executive Officer of ProSim.
DIPPR L03+ completes the many features of ProSim's thermodynamic package, already regarded as one of the most flexible and reliable available on the market.
DIPPR L03+ is available as standalone, provided with Component Plus (ProSim's free pure component properties database management software) or as an option to any ProSim's package. The standalone version can be purchased online from ProSim's web site (http://www.prosim.net).
