Title :
SNAP 2002-a Stirling numerical analysis program a second generation program
Abstract :
SNAP-a Stirling numerical analysis program was written to fill the need for a user modifiable Stirling thermodynamic design program. The original program was released a few years ago and described in these proceedings recently (Altman, 2001) and on the web (Altman, 2002). It has been significantly extended and improved over the last year in response to feedback from users and requests for added features. Screen shots of SNAP are included.
