Please note.
If the calculation results in -1, values have been entered outside the range of validity of the
IAPWS-IF97 or they do not define a state point. In this case, an error message is displayed.

Internally, the entire range of validity is subdivided into five calculation regions in which the
appropriate constitutive equations apply (cf. Fig. 1). Those are described in detail in the official
IAPWS [1] release and in the publications by Wagner et al. [2] and [3].
The FluidTI version at hand is valid for the regions 1, 2, and the wet steam region (region 4) up
to a pressure of 16.529164 MPa (cf. Figure1). Their connection to the calculation equations is
established according to the given quantities.

3. Application of FluidTI
3.1 Installation of FluidTI onto the TI Nspire Pocket Calculators
In order to run the FluidTI software on your pocket calculator, load the program from your
computer into the calculator, using a special link program and the appropriate link cable.
The link program is available at service partners of Texas Instruments, as well as the link
cable, or can be downloaded from the TI web site:
http://education.ti.com/en/us/software/details/en/79881F1D740D4A92ADB342087887BE55/tinspirecas_pc_full.
The following description is valid for the
TI-Nspire CAS Student Software
link program which should have already been installed onto your computer.
(For another link program used for the file transfer see the corresponding users guide or
online-help.)
1. Insert the FluidTI CD into your CD-ROM drive. The CD contains the file listed in the following
table:

- Enter the given value for "p in MPa" into the appropriate window. Please consider the
IAPWS-IF97 range of validity:
p = 0.000611 MPa ... 100 MPa.
E.g.: Enter the value 10 and move the cursor to the next input field.
- Enter the value given for "t in C" into the appropriate window. Please consider the IAPWSIF97 range of validity:
t = 0 C ... 800 C.
E.g.: Enter the value 400, and move the cursor to the next input field.
- Now, the value for the vapor fraction x in (kg saturated steam/kg wet steam) is to be entered
into the appropriate window. Consider the following specifications:
If the state point to be calculated is located within the single-phase regions (of liquid or
superheated steam) enter either no input value, or -1 for the value of x. In this case, the
backward functions will result in x = -1.
If the state point to be calculated is located within the two-phase region (wet steam), values
between 0 and 1 have to be entered for the value of x (x = 0 for saturated liquid, x = 1 for
saturated vapor). The backward functions result in values for x that range from 0 to 1.
In the case of wet steam it is adequate to put in either the value given for t and p = -1 (or no
input value for p), or the given value for p and t = -1 (or no input value for t), as well as the
value for x that ranges from 0 to1.
If you enter p and t and x when calculating wet steam, the program considers p and t to
meet the vapor-pressure curve. If this does not apply, an error message is displayed for the
selected function to be calculated.
IAPWS-IF97 wet steam region:
t = 0 C ... t = 373.946 C
p = 0.000611 MPa ... p = 22.064 MPa
Press <ENTER> only, because in the example the state point is located in the singlephase region.
Now the calculation starts.
- After the calculation has been finished the result for h in kJ/kg is displayed:

The calculated value for h can be saved as a variable and used in other calculations with the
pocket computer.
E.g.: Enter the variable name "h" into the "save as:" window and press <ENTER> twice:
Note.
For the variable any name can be chosen, except for those which start with the (Omega)symbol and system variables (cf. TI Handbook).
In general, variables beginning with the -symbol must not be used within the FLUIDTI
programs.
