3. NATURE OF PHYSICAL PROBLEM SOLVED

MAPLIB is a program system which is able to incorporate the values of the properties of any material in a form suitable for use in other computer programs. The data are implemented in FORTRAN functions. A utility program is provided to assist in library management.

[ top ]

4. METHOD OF SOLUTION

MAPLIB consists of the following parts:
1. Conventions for the data format.
2. Some integrated data.
3. A data access system (FORTRAN subroutine).
4. An utility program for updating and documentation of the actual library content.
The central part is a set of FORTRAN functions, e.g. WL H2O v(t,p) (heat conduction of water vapor as a function of temperature and pressure), which compute the required data and which can be called by the user program.
The data content of MAPLIB has been delivered by many persons. There was no systematic evaluation of the material. It is the responsibi- lity of every user to check the data for physical accuracy. MAPLIB only serves as a library system for manipulation and storing of such data.

5. RESTRICTIONS ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROBLEM

a) See responsibility as explained above.
b) Up to 1000 data functions could be implemented.
c) If too many data functions are included in MAPLIB, the storage requirements become excessive for application in users programs.

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME: A few milliseconds per call.
