Abstract

Thermophysical and thermochemical property data on organic compounds provide vital background information for scientific and engineering communities in both academic and industrial environments. The Thermodynamics Research Center (TRC) has collected an enormous amount of property data over the past 55 years. New advances in computer technology enable relatively large data- bases to have friendly ``communications'' based upon a PC Windows platform. Here we discuss the structure, upgrade procedures, and mechanisms for distri- bution over local PC networks and the Internet, with emphasis on three data- bases: TRC COMPOUNDS (Wincmp), SOURCE (WinSource), the archive of raw experimental data, and TRC TABLE (WinTable), the TRC collection of recommended data.
