Colin Lacey ME 340-2 Winter 2014 LabVIEW TP Calculator
Creating a Thermophysical Properties Calculator in LabVIEW Advantages: Graphical environment allows fast programming Built-in functions for handling spreadsheets and interpolation User interface very easy to set up Plotting data is very simple Inherently handy for touch controls Disadvantages: Run-time libraries (or development environment) required for execution Greek symbols not natively supported (used pictures instead) Must be recompiled to run on alternate OS
User Interface Employs separate tabs for each category Different properties reported Graphs properties as function of temperature Allows for F or C input, as well as Kelvin Does away with using kJ as units Has an LED to indicate out-of-range values
Result Submitted as both .exe and .vi file Choose between convenient use and the ability to customize Problems/Bugs The graphs don t all autoscaleproperly Some of the reported bounds for the temperature are incorrect
