Hi everybody!

I am looking to interface a specific thermodynamic tool with OpenFOAM. This program is written in Fortran. From a Pressure, a temperature and a composition it can provide a density : rho=f(P,T,x)

I wonder how to bound these different programs. I would like to keep the OpenFOAM structure and evaluate the density at each time step with a command as : thermo.rho();

Is anybody already performed such an interfacing ? Can you give some hints to start ? from which thermophysicalModels can I be inspired?

Regards,
Cyp
