|
## Story
|
|
|
|
As a refrigeration engineer,
|
|
I want robust (P, h) and (P, x) inputs for zeotropic mixtures,
|
|
so that the solver handles temperature glide reliably.
|
|
|
|
## Acceptance Criteria
|
|
|
|
1. **Mixture Composition Support** (AC: #1)
|
|
- [x] Extend FluidId or create MixtureId to support multi-component fluids (e.g., R454B = R32/R125)
|
|
- [x] Define mixture composition structure: Component fractions (mass or mole basis)
|
|
- [x] Backend can query properties for mixtures
|
|
|
|
2. **Temperature Glide Calculation** (AC: #2)
|
|
- [x] Given zeotropic mixture at constant pressure, calculate bubble point and dew point temperatures
|
|
- [x] Temperature glide = T_dew - T_bubble (non-zero for zeotropic mixtures)
|
|
- [x] Backend correctly handles glide in heat exchanger calculations
|
|
|
|
3. **Robust (P, h) and (P, x) Inputs** (AC: #3)
|
|
- [x] (P, h) preferred over (P, T) for two-phase mixtures - implement correctly
|
|
- [x] (P, x) works for any quality value 0-1 in two-phase region
|
|
- [x] Handle edge cases: saturation boundary, critical point region
|
|
|
|
4. **Backend Integration** (AC: #4)
|
|
- [x] CoolPropBackend handles mixtures via PropsSI with mixture strings
|
|
- [x] TabularBackend extends to mixture tables (or graceful fallback to CoolProp)
|
|
- [x] Existing pure fluid functionality unchanged
|
|
|

## Dev Notes

|
### Previous Story Intelligence
|
|
|
|
**From Story 2-4 (LRU Cache):**
|
|
- FluidBackend trait in `crates/fluids/src/backend.rs` with: property(), critical_point(), is_fluid_available(), phase(), list_fluids()
|
|
- ThermoState enum variants: PressureTemperature, PressureEnthalpy, PressureEntropy, PressureQuality
|
|
- Cache wraps existing backends; new mixture support must work with CachedBackend
|
|
- Code review learnings: Avoid unwrap(), panic risks; use proper error handling
|
|
|
|
**From Story 2-1 (Fluid Backend Trait Abstraction):**
|
|
- Trait requires `Send + Sync` - mixture support must preserve this
|
|
- Use FluidId, Property, ThermoState from `crates/fluids/src/types.rs`
|
|
|
|
**From Story 2-2 (CoolProp Integration):**
|
|
- CoolPropBackend wraps coolprop-sys
|
|
- CoolProp supports mixtures natively via `PropsSI` with mixture strings
|
|
|
|
**From Story 2-3 (Tabular Interpolation):**
|
|
- TabularBackend in tabular_backend.rs
|
|
- No allocation in hot path
|
|
- Mixture support: Tabular is complex; fallback to CoolProp is acceptable
|
|
|
|
### Architecture Context
|
|
|
|
**Mixture Handling (from Architecture):**
|
|
- Architecture mentions FR27 (mixtures) and FR28 (temperature glide)
|
|
- FluidBackend trait must be extended for mixture support
|
|
- CoolProp handles mixtures well; Tabular may fallback
|
|
|
|
**Architecture Location:**
|
|
```
|
|
crates/fluids/
|
|
├── src/
|
|
│ ├── types.rs # Extend with Mixture, MixtureId
|
|
│ ├── backend.rs # FluidBackend trait extension
|
|
│ ├── coolprop.rs # CoolPropBackend mixture support
|
|
│ ├── tabular_backend.rs # TabularBackend (fallback for mixtures)
|
|
│ ├── cached_backend.rs # Cache wrapper (must handle mixtures)
|
|
│ └── ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Technical Requirements
|
|
|
|
**Mixture Representation:**
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
// Option 1: Extend FluidId
|
|
pub enum FluidId {
|
|
Pure(String), // "R134a", "CO2"
|
|
Mixture(Vec<(String, f64)>), // [("R32", 0.5), ("R125", 0.5)]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Option 2: Separate MixtureId
|
|
pub struct Mixture {
|
|
components: Vec<Component>,
|
|
fractions: Vec<f64>, // mass or mole basis
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
pub enum FluidOrMixture {
|
|
Fluid(FluidId),
|
|
Mixture(Mixture),
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// ThermoState extension
|
|
pub enum ThermoState {
|
|
// ... existing variants ...
|
|
PressureEnthalpyMixture(Pressure, Enthalpy, Mixture),
|
|
PressureQualityMixture(Pressure, Quality, Mixture),
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Temperature Glide Calculation:**
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
pub trait FluidBackend {
|
|
// ... existing methods ...
|
|
|
|
/// Calculate bubble point temperature (liquid saturated)
|
|
fn bubble_point(&self, pressure: Pressure, mixture: &Mixture) -> Result<Temperature, FluidError>;
|
|
|
|
/// Calculate dew point temperature (vapor saturated)
|
|
fn dew_point(&self, pressure: Pressure, mixture: &Mixture) -> Result<Temperature, FluidError>;
|
|
|
|
/// Calculate temperature glide (T_dew - T_bubble)
|
|
fn temperature_glide(&self, pressure: Pressure, mixture: &Mixture) -> Result<f64, FluidError> {
|
|
let t_bubble = self.bubble_point(pressure, mixture)?;
|
|
let t_dew = self.dew_point(pressure, mixture)?;
|
|
Ok(t_dew.to_kelvin() - t_bubble.to_kelvin())
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**CoolProp Mixture Usage:**
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
// CoolProp mixture string format: "R32[0.5]&R125[0.5]"
|
|
fn coolprop_mixture_string(mixture: &Mixture) -> String {
|
|
mixture.components.iter()
|
|
.zip(mixture.fractions.iter())
|
|
.map(|(name, frac)| format!("{}[{}]", name, frac))
|
|
.collect::<Vec<_>>()
|
|
.join("&")
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// PropsSI call:PropsSI("T", "P", p, "Q", x, "R32[0.5]&R125[0.5]")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Common Refrigerant Mixtures:**
|
|
- R454B: R32 (50%) / R1234yf (50%)
|
|
- R410A: R32 (50%) / R125 (50%)
|
|
- R32/R125: various blends
|
|
- CO2/R744 blends (transcritical)
|
|
|
|
### Library/Framework Requirements
|
|
|
|
**CoolProp:**
|
|
- Version: 6.4+ (as per NFR11)
|
|
- Mixture handling via `PropsSI` with mixture strings
|
|
- Mole fraction vs mass fraction: CoolProp uses mole fraction internally
|
|
|
|
**No new dependencies required** - extend existing trait and implementations.
|
|
|
|
### File Structure Requirements
|
|
|
|
**New files:**
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/mixture.rs` - Mixture struct, MixtureId, parsing
|
|
|
|
**Modified files:**
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/types.rs` - Add mixture-related types
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/backend.rs` - Extend FluidBackend trait
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/coolprop.rs` - Implement mixture support
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/tabular_backend.rs` - Fallback handling
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/cache.rs` - Cache key must handle mixtures
|
|
- `crates/fluids/src/lib.rs` - Export new types
|
|
|
|
### Testing Requirements
|
|
|
|
**Required Tests:**
|
|
- `test_r454b_bubble_dew_points` - Verify against CoolProp reference
|
|
- `test_temperature_glide` - glide > 0 for zeotropic mixtures
|
|
- `test_mixture_ph_px_inputs` - (P,h) and (P,x) work for mixtures
|
|
- `test_pure_fluids_unchanged` - existing pure fluid tests still pass
|
|
|
|
**Reference Data:**
|
|
- R454B at 1 MPa: T_bubble ≈ 273K, T_dew ≈ 283K, glide ≈ 10K
|
|
- Compare against CoolProp reference values
|
|
|
|
### Project Structure Notes
|
|
|
|
**Alignment:**
|
|
- Architecture specifies mixture support in FluidBackend
|
|
- Follows trait-based design from Story 2-1
|
|
- Backward compatibility: pure fluids work exactly as before
|
|

### Git Intelligence Summary
|
|
|
|
**Recent work patterns:**
|
|
- Story 2-4 implemented thread-local LRU cache
|
|
- Stories 2-2, 2-3 completed CoolProp and Tabular backends
|
|
- Trait-based architecture established in Story 2-1
|
|
- fluids crate structured with backend abstraction
|
|
|
|
**Patterns:** Workspace structure stable; fluids crate uses entropyk-core types; deny(warnings) in lib.rs.
