# Welcome to CoolProp

CoolProp is a thermophysical property database and wrappers for a selection of programming environments.
It offers similar functionality to REFPROP, but CoolProp is open-source and free.
It was originally developed by Ian Bell, at the time a post-doc at the University of Liege, in Liege, Belgium.
