IK-CAPE models

[milanofthe]

The IK-CAPE Thermodynamics-Module allows the calculation of thermodynamic properties. There is a handbook of equations that can be implemented in pathsim. It makes sense to implement these models to have a robust first set of blocks for the chemical engineering toolbox.

@RemDelaporteMathurin implementing these formulas as blocks would bring pathsim closer to something like ASPEN. Is there priority for any of these for fuel-cycle modeling?

Given the scope of pathsim-chem I think this would be very interesting! Hard to say right now which are highest priority
