Return Value

GetPhaseInfo is intended to allow a PME, or other client, to identify a Phase with an arbitrary label. A PME, or other client, will need to do this to map stream data into a Material Object, or when importing a Property Package. If the client cannot identify the Phase, it can ask the user to provide a mapping based on the values of these properties.

The list of supported Phase attributes is defined in the following table:

For example, the following information might be returned by a Property Package component that supports a vapour Phase, an organic liquid Phase and an aqueous liquid Phase: Phase label Gas Organic Aqueous StateOfAggregation Vapor Liquid Liquid KeyCompoundId UNDEFINED UNDEFINED Water ExcludedCompoundId UNDEFINED Water UNDEFINED DensityDescription UNDEFINED Light Heavy UserDescription The gas Phase The organic liquid Phase The aqueous liquid Phase TypeOfSolid UNDEFINED UNDEFINED UNDEFINED
