rho_LiBrH2O
Function rho_LiBrH2O(T, x) returns the density of a liquid solution of lithium bromide and water as a function of the mixture temperature, T and composition, x.
The temperature, T, is assumed to be in the temperature units specified in the EES Unit System dialog, which can be C, K, F, or K.
The composition, x is assumed to be the lithium bromide mass fraction if EES is configured to operate with specific properties on a mass basis. If EES is configured to operate on a molar basis, x is assumed to be the lithium bromide mole fraction.
rho_LiBrH2O is returned in the unit system EES has been configured to operate in, which can be kmol/m^3, kg/m^3, lbmol/ft^3, or lbm/ft^3.
The function is based on the correlation provided by:
