classmethod get_default_unit(name)#

Return default unit of a class attribute defined as ComponentParam.

classmethod get_definition(fluid_string, session)#

Tries to find a match for fluid_string among fluids definitions. Compares lower case and neglecting whitespaces. Checks against name and description.

Parameters:

fluid_string (str) – User-supplied string that must uniquely define a fluid within the CoolProp incompressible fluids, or predefined wpd_fluids. See `CoolProp Incompressibles`_.
session (sqlalchemy.orm.session.Session) – An active database session object

Return type:

A CoolpropFluidDefinition or WPDFluidDefinition object if a unique match for `fluid string is found in the fluid_definitions table`

Raises:

ValueError – If no or more than one fluid is found.
