Thermodynamic properties

Going through a large number of articles I found some simple curve fit functions which enable us to calculate the thermodynamic properties of water and steam--both in subcooled and saturated states. The actual form of the equations can be found in the articles by Garland et al [22],[23] and [24] and they will, due to space limitations, not be repeated here. An inconvenience of the Garland package is that a curve fit for $T_\ell(h,p)$ is not available and impossible to derive from the $h_\ell(p,T)$-function. The implication is that we have to solve $h_\ell(p,T)$ iteratively in order to obtain T. It would therefore be appropriate at a later instant to retrieve a curve fit for $T_\ell(h,p)$ from another source.
