coolprop_fluid_properties

Pack: coolprop · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/coolprop_fluid_properties for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Thermophysical properties of a pure fluid, computed from two independent state variables (PropsSI-style — give e.g. temperature + pressure, get density, enthalpy, entropy, viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat, phase, …). Covers ~124 fluids (water, refrigerants, hydrocarbons, cryogens, …) via CoolProp (open-source, MIT), computed in-process rather than looked up from a table — valid over each fluid’s full equation-of-state range, not just tabulated points. No aliases: call coolprop_list_fluids for exact names (e.g. “CarbonDioxide”, not “CO2”).

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredDescription
fluidstringyesExact CoolProp fluid name, e.g. “Water”, “Nitrogen”, “R134a”, “CarbonDioxide” — see coolprop_list_fluids for the full list (no aliases)
input1_namestringyesFirst independent state variable code: T (temperature, K), P (pressure, Pa), D (mass density, kg/m3), H (mass enthalpy, J/kg), S (mass entropy, J/kg/K), U (mass internal energy, J/kg), or Q (vapor quality, 0-1)
input1_valuenumberyesValue for input1_name, SI units
input2_namestringyesSecond independent state variable code — must differ from input1_name. Same code set as input1_name.
input2_valuenumberyesValue for input2_name, SI units
outputsarrayyesProperty codes to compute, up to 12 per call: T, P, D (density kg/m3), H (enthalpy J/kg), S (entropy J/kg/K), U (internal energy J/kg), Q (vapor quality), CPMASS (isobaric specific heat J/kg/K), CVMASS (isochoric specific heat J/kg/K), VISCOSITY (Pa·s), CONDUCTIVITY (W/m/K), PRANDTL, M (molar mass kg/mol), Phase (liquid/gas/supercritical/twophase/…)
