I have a problem with using Refprop in COFE. I have set up a water-ammonia mixture through the Refprop Cape-open ppm, which is working fine for direct calculations, but apparently not in iteration loops. I.e. for units which cannot be calculated sequentially I get the error message:
"error: calculate failed for unit HeaterCooler_8: CalcEquilibrium failed: CalcEquilibrium failed: CalcEquilibrium failed: [TPFLSH error 219] outer iteration loop for composition in 2-phase state did not converge"
According to Refprop documentation, [TPFLSH error 219] is simply a failed-to-converge error message. Could this be caused by the data (or lack of) that is sent to the refprop routine?
