CHANGES THAT WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON GASWORKS program operation, and are mostly for improved clarity in the workout.dat file: - Initial titration increments smaller than 0.1e-06 are too small to show in the summary of reactant mass changes in workout file (meanwhile workplot.dat has this info and is good to go) e.g. NEXT SOLID TITRATION INCREMENT OF: 0.0000000 GRAMS CURRENT TOTAL AMOUNT OF SOLID ADDED: 0.0000000 GRAMS NEW TOTAL AMOUNT OF SOLID ADDED: 0.0000000 GRAMS So, switch to the G format descriptor, or add to and widen the F. I think we went with G in Chim. Check for switch for grams (or g as in Chim) vs moles - Have Gasworks issue a message listing all files required for proper operation if any are missing, as was done for Chim. - Bump the two line title from 80 to 120 characters allowed per line. - Compare Workout to Chimout, and use the improvements done in Chimout when we changed from Chiller to Chim. - Change "INITIAL COMPOSITION OF SOLID PHASE (WT%):" to "Composition of reactants, wt%:" - Change "SOLID REACTANT" to "reactant" - Change "ORIGINAL SOLUTION" to "original gas" - Change "DERIVED SPECIES" to "derived gases" - Change "THE FOLLOWING MINERALS AND/OR GASES WITH IDENTICAL INDEX ARE IN SOLID SOLUTION:" to "The following minerals with identical index are in solid solution:" - Adjust tabs and justification, fewer all caps, remove blank lines, align decimals, overall alignment - Add capability to suppress minerals within Gastherm by adding a $, as for the gases. Note that minerals can always be suppressed in Workrun.dat, or by moving the record to sidelined items section at the bottom of Gastherm. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ CHANGES THAT WILL EFFECT Gasworks program operation: - Change the input file (containing reactant stoichimotries) name from Workox.dat to Minoxgas.dat. So as to make the name more distinct from output the files workrun.dat, workout.dat, workplot.dat. This modification already exists but will not be put into use until the changes mentioned above are added to it. In particular, the one that issues a message if files are missing.
