Extend properties calculation to 1000 atm (100 MPa) range. #1

The current upper-bound limitation for the calculation of thermodynamic and transport properties is 100 atm (10 MPa). For the simulation of higher total pressure rocket nozzles, coefficients for enthalpy, specific heat, compressibility, thermal conductivity, and viscosity are required.

I've got some ideas based on Hansen's NASA special report on "Molecular Physics of Equilibrium Gases: A Handbook for Engineers". Investigating.
