Thermo-hydraulic mathematical models of manned modules of the International Space Station [ISS] require to simulate also air-vapour flow in Environmental Control Systems [ECS] circuits. Although this can be obtained with available S/W, a complementary solution was developed, in order to overcome some S/W limitations and to ease exchange of models. It consists of a set of FORTRAN subroutines, that can be added to ESATAN/FHTS and SINDA/FLUINT thermo-hydraulic models for dry air, and simulate the effect of vapour in the airflow.
