Equations of state difference Applicability Ideal gas model Real gas model Conditions from ANSYS manual For NITROGEN Temperature range: 100 – 1000 K Conditions from NIST For NITROGEN Pmax = 1 MPa - considereing simulations max. inlet pressure Tmax = 297. 3 K - considereing simulations max. inlet temp. Pmax/PC = 0, 294481 < 1 Tmax/TC = 2, 353594 > 2 Conditions satisfied always Conditions satisfied

Example from the publication
Conclusions • There is no significant difference between real gas and ideal gas model for HP simulations • A difference of the numerical model on the border between HP and LP side is still unknown.
