sw_gibbs: Gibbs Function of Seawater

Description

Calculates the seawater specific gibbs free energy, including derivatives up to order 2, for a given temperature, salinity and pressure.

The Gibbs function of seawater g(S,t,p) is related to the specific enthalpy h and entropy s, by g = h - (273.15 K + t) s

Usage

sw_gibbs(S = 35, t = 25, p = P-1.013253, 
         P = 1.013253, dS = 0, dt = 0, dp = 0)

Value

The Gibbs function, J/kg, or its derivative

Arguments

S

Absolute salinity (g/kg),

t

Temperature, \(^\circ\)C,

p

gauge or applied pressure, pressure referenced against the local atmospheric pressure, bar

P

true pressure, bar

dS

order of the S derivative

dt

order of the t derivative

dp

order of the p derivative
