Hello,
I am trying to use MATLAB code from database of REFPROP ("refrigerant property" a software for calculating refrigeration system performance) to evaluate my system performance.
here is the link which says about how to use refprop matlab codes: http://www.boulder.nist.gov/div838/theory/refprop/Frequently_asked_questions.htm
I did this for one of the PC in the lab there it is working fine, but in my system it is not working.
i am getting the following error message
??? Error using ==> refpropm at 264
[SETUP error 101] error in opening
file for component # 1; filename =
(C:\Program Files
(x86)\REFPROP\fluids\ammonia.fld|
).
I am using the same version of Matlab in both the systems. Please tell me what might have gone wrong...
Thanks

Hi Ting
I also had the same problem with accessing Air properties.
However, the solution was so simple!
All you have to do is go to the directory where your file is located and simply change the .PPF file extention to .FLD!
