openmc.data.water_density¶
- openmc.data.water_density(temperature, pressure=0.1013)[source]¶
Return the density of liquid water at a given temperature and pressure.
The density is calculated from a polynomial fit using equations and values from the 2012 version of the IAPWS-IF97 formulation. Only the equations for region 1 are implemented here. Region 1 is limited to liquid water below 100 [MPa] with a temperature above 273.15 [K], below 623.15 [K], and below saturation.
