Abstract
This web application provides free and open access for the broader research community to the experimental planning utilities that are incorporated into ThermoData Engine (TDE) [J. Chem. Inf. Model. 2011, 51, 181194]. TDE provides recommendations for the relative value of a given measurement via assessment of the existing body of knowledge, including availability of experimental thermophysical property data, variable ranges studied, associated uncertainties, state of prediction methods, and parameters for deployment of prediction methods and how these parameters can be obtained using targeted measurements, etc., and, indeed, how the intended measurement may address the underlying scientific or engineering problem under consideration. The web applications provides specific utilities for the assessment of specific property measurements for pure and binary chemical systems, the broader data needs of pure systems, and recommendation of binary mixture measurements for extension of the UNIFAC model.
