In version 2.2.1 and probably before, there are some multi-phase models (like N2 and CO2) that fail to converge at low temperatures and very high pressures. The minimum,maximum density limits contained in the multi-phase dlim data element are not used by the front end, but they are used to establish iteration boundaries in the back-end. A standard value of 1600kg/m3 was set when developing for steam, and it was kept by default when expanding to other substances. Through an oversight, it was never re-evaluated for other substances, so certain high-pressure, low-temperature conditions are not currently accessible even though they should be. It wasn't caught in development because most validating data sets provided by the original model authors do not include data at the extrema - the focus is usually near the critical point and the phase transitions.
This will be fixed in a future release, but in the meantime, users can quickly fix this themselves if it becomes a problem. Users can manually overwrite the loaded data (this is not permanent). In this example, we reset the maximum density to be 2000kg/m3.
