Lithium Chloride - Water Properties

The LiClH2O library provides property data for equilibrium liquid solutions of lithium chloride in water.  The functions in this library are:

T_LiClH2O
P_LiClH2O
x_LiClH2O
h_LiClH2O
s_LiClH2O
cp_LiClH2O
rho_LiClH2O
massfraction_LiClH2O
molefraction_LiClH2O
viscosity_LiClH2O
Conductivity_LiClH2O

The thermodynamic property functions are based on the following publication:

Patek, J. and Klomfar, J., Int. J. of Refrigeration, Vol. 31, pp. 287-303, (2008)
"Thermodynamic properties of the LiCl-H2O system at vapor-liquid equilibrium from 273 K to 400 K"

The transport property functions are based on the following publication:

Conde, Manuel, R., International Journal of Thermal Sciences 43 (2004) 367-382
"Properties of aqueous solutions of lithium and calcium chlorides: formulations for use in air conditioning equipment design"

The correlations are valid for temperatures between 273 K and 400 K for mole fractions up to 0.5.
