  1. ME EN 340 Final ProjectBYU 2014 Thermophysical Property Explorer Daniel McArthur

  2. Project Description Designed and programmed an application that calculates thermophysical property values and incorporates graphs and charts to help visualize the information.

  3. Motivation • Want a way to visualize how the material properties change with temperature, and visualize the differences between different materials • Want to be able to calculate properties for several materials & temperatures and see them all simultaneously • Want values given in standard SI units to prevent computational errors • (e.g. Display cp= 1.25e3 J/kg•K instead of cp= 1.25 kJ/kg•K) • Want a property calculator that can be accessed online rather than requiring a download • If a download is preferred (for offline access), want a cross-platform solution to work on any OS

  4. Table format displays multiple calculated properties simultaneously Key Features

  5. Animated charts compare properties for different materials Key Features

  6. Animated plots help visualize how properties change with temperature Key Features

  7. Pure HTML/Javascript; code can run on a server, or locally on any OS • Properties listed in standard SI units to help avoid computational errors • All data stored in JSON so it can be updated/edited easily Key Features

  8. Simple User Interface Rows Highlight for Deletion: Key Features Columns Highlight for Plotting:

  9. Setup Instructions • Download and unzip the TPE folder • Place the TPE folder in a known path on your web server or local file system • (e.g. http://students.cs.byu.edu/~danielrm/TPE) • Open index.html in a web browser (Google Chrome for best results)
