TRUMP/XB2: A COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR PROCESSING THE TRUMP THERMAL PROPERTY DATA COMPILATION

摘要

The TRUMP/XB2 computer program was developed for processing the TRUMP Thermal Property Data Compilation. The data include densities, transition tempera¬tures, heats of transition, and tables of specific heat and thermal conductivity vs tem¬perature, for over 1000 materials. An alphabetical material index, list of data sources, material-classification system, data-quality indicator system, and the data themselves are on computer cards and magnetic tapes. The data are in the format used for material property input data in the TRUMP program. Processing options available with the TRUMP/XB2 program include (a) reading the material data, checking for various types of format errors, calculating table slopes, calculating enthalpies from specific-heat tables, and writing out the input data, error diagnostics, and calcu¬lated data;(b) conversion of the material data to any desired unit system;(c) producing a secondary material data list from the master data list, including all the materials or only the materials on a material selection list;(d) producing graphs of specific heat and thermal conductivity vs temperature;and (e) any combination of these. Planned future development includes addition of procedures for updating the material data list and alphabetical index, searching for materials with properties in specified ranges, and other searching and sorting procedures.
