We use density function theory (DFT) methods and statistical thermodynamics to compute ideal gas properties like cp, u, h, a, g and s. In this way, caloric properties and reaction equilibria for energy- and chemical engineering can be predicted quite accurately, even when new substances are not available in the quantities required for experimental investigation.
