The END to Tedious Grashof Number Calculations

This webpage is the culmination of all the labor, blood, and toiling spent on the CENG 402 final project. It contains information about an easy to use program to calculate Grashof numbers utilizing the power of Dr. Davis's Matlab compound database.

It is designed to use as much of the information in the database as possible, in order to cut down on the number of hoops that YOU, the student, must go through to get an answer. We believe you shouldn't have to calculate and input 10 variables to run a Matlab program.

It is also designed for extremely high accuracy for air and water (even better than BSL!), the two most common substances you'll be encountering in CENG 402.

Enjoy!
