This is the CoolProp-IF97 repository for active development. If you wish to contribute, please fork from this repository and make pull from your own fork. The purpose of these wiki pages is to provide guidance on contributing using git and Github and to help new contributors understand how the process works.

CoolProp-IF97 is a C++ library that:

• Implements the IAPWS-IF97 standards for water properties
• Is entirely free and open-source
• Is Written in optimized standard C++ code so it will compile anywhere Fast
• Is Easy-to-use (just a single header)

This IF97 library is included as a backend in the CoolProp code, however, as a single header file it can be included in any other project and called through its public API functions to provide properties of steam/water.

Although the IAPWS-IF97 standard is fairly well implemented at this point, enhancements and development of new wrappers are encouraged. For assistance in contributing, please follow the guidelines below.
