NIST REFROP - Thermodynamic calculations in Labview

Hello,

I currently use Labview 2018 64 bits. NIST REFPROP 9.1 is also installed.

I have to write a VI which can access to thermodynamic properties of R134a & R1234yf fluids and perform calculations.

However, I do not find any Labview package for Refprop.

I saw some Labview Refprop wrappers available for Labview 2021 and Refrop 10.0.

 

Should consider an upgrade to be able use these wrappers ?

Is there any other solution (in order to run thermodynamic calculations) compatible with my current software versions ?

Thanks

I used RefProp with LabVIEW 2014 and 2017 successfully, so you don't need to upgrade. I used LabVIEW-32bit, this might be an issue with your 64bit version!

 

Other solutions I used are FluidProp, which was used as the wrapper around RefProp to employ a more simple API.

Best regards,
