Abstract
Cantera currently offers the Redlich-Kwong and Peng-Robinson equations of state. Addition of a Soave-Redlich-Kwong model should not be too difficult as the implementation would largely parallel the other two equations of state.
Motivation
Addition of SRK support would allow for chemical kinetics simulations with Cantera for conditions and mixtures that are best modeled by this EOS (for example, supercritical CO2 cycle conditions).
I've started working on this over at corykinney:SRK but it'll likely take me a while as I'm not as experienced with C++ and thus I'll be leaning quite heavily on the PengRobinson implementation.
