gastables: python gastable modules for compressible gas flow calculations
=========================================================================

NOTATIONS:
---------
M - mach number, 
A - area, 
P - pressure, 
T - temperature, 
rho - density,
F - impulse function
f - mean coefficient of friction
D - hydraulic mean diameter
Lmax - maximum pipe length required for choking conditions
g = Cp/Cv (ratio of specific heats) (can be set to required value using
__init__ while creating the instance of the class)

SUBSCRIPTS:
----------
o - Stagnation quantity
x - Upstream of shock
y - Downstream of shock
star - corresponding to choking condition (M = 1)
starref - corresponding to M = 1/(sqrt(gamma))

Note: All the angles are in degrees.

INSTALLATION:
------------

= modules =

The 'modules' subfolder contains the python-modules which can be used
from other python scripts. Please read the README included in the
'modules' subfolder.

To install gastable modules run (as root) in the 'modules' subfolder:

$ python setup.py install

= gui =

The 'gui' subfolder provides a graphical user interface for the
gastables modules. To install the gui program, again run (as root) in
