Mixture properties meter (MF)#

The Mixture properties meter (MF) block allows measuring a number of mixture properties (see table 1) in a multi-component medium network.

Note

The number and composition of the measured properties is determined by the user using the corresponding block properties.

Property	Unit of measurement
Density	\(\frac{kg}{m^3}\)
Molar mass	\(\frac{kg}{mol}\)
Specific isobaric heat capacity	\(\frac{J}{kg \cdot K}\)
Specific isochoric heat capacity	\(\frac{J}{kg \cdot K}\)
Speed of sound	\(\frac{m}{s}\)
Enthalpy	\(\frac{J}{kg}\)
Entropy	\(\frac{J}{kg \cdot K}\)
Joule-Thomson coefficient	\(\frac{℃}{bar}\)
Dynamic viscosity	\(Pa\cdot s\)
Thermal conductivity	\(\frac{W}{m \cdot K}\)
