CoolProp is a handy free open source replacement (or stand-in) for NIST's commercial RefProp. However, CoolProp has some quirks, some of which are recorded here.

CoolProp: LIMITATION: DOES NOT accept specific enthalpy 'H' and vapor quality 'Q' as input pairs
CoolProp: HOWTO reproduce a pressure vs specific enthalpy chart in Mathematica. Example: R32 refrigerant.
Mathematica: CoolProp wrapper binaries don't seem to be maintained past CoolProp 5.1.1 (and the PhaseSI and 2-args Props1SI functions do not work)
CoolProp: Mathematica: Mac: HOWTO get CoolProp for Mathematica running on Apple M1 Max and Mathematica13
Notes
