Ideal gas and Flat Plate boundary layer calculation

Use ideal gas law to calculate PV=nRT, specific heat capacity of constant volume, heat capasity of constant pressure, gamma (the adiabatic index also known as the isentropic expansion factor (c_p / c_v)), Blottner and Eucken viscosity model and speed of sound in the gas. For gas specific constant calculation, 3 methods can be choose:

  1. General (Been tesetd)
  2. Using Boltzmann constant
  3. Use Mayer's relation

The entire data here comes from the https://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/form-ser/ NIST(National Institute of Standards and Technology) chemistry webbook

For Reynolds number and Mach number calculation:

I choose Blottner and Eucken viscosity model

mu_tol += frac * 0.1 * exp(A_tol * (log10(T) ** 2) + B_tol * log10(T) + C_tol) A, B and C are given by chemistry package extracted from http://www.update.uu.se/~jolkkonen/pdf/CRC_TD.pdf and http://www.lmnoeng.com/Flow/GasViscosity.php

This code can tell if you are monatomic or diatomic, and thus use a different calculation for specific heat capacity, because the specific heat at constant volume for species s for translational energy c_v_tr_s is a completely different calculation than c_v_rot_s and c_v_vib_s as follow

For monotonic: c_v = 3/2 * (R / M_s) c_p = (R + c_v * M_s) / M_s

For diatomic: c_v = 3/2 * (R / M_s) + 2 * (R / M_s) (Last part is rot + vib) c_p = (R + c_v * M_s) / M_s

Notice this: Here is just apply the rule of mixture to calculate the specific heat capacity(c_rot + c_vib = c_vib, in code will be c_v = 3/2 * (R / M_s) + (R / M_s)), the vibration part will be added later

What data I can get:

Pressure: {P} Pa

Density: {rho} kg/m^3

Temperature: {T} K

R_specific: {R_specific} J/mol*K

Gamma: {gamma}

Speed of sound in present gas: {c} m/s

Current Mach number: {mach}

Current speed: {u} m/s

Average molecular weight: {M_avg} kg/mol

Dynamic viscosity: {mu_tol} Pas or Ns/m^2

Reynolds number: {Re}\n, c_2 :{c_2}

How to use:

Typing the follow in terminal: python3 ideal_gas_calculator.py
