Distillation Calculator

Long story short, I am planning to write a distilation calculator, and distribute it free of charge.

What I need is to know what kind of calculations we, distillers do... I only use density to %volume alcohol though there are many calculations and formules for distillation, preparing mesh. If you can add the formula and what it is for, I'll add it to the calculator.

Such as, C/F degree to amount of ethanol in vapour
Amount of ethanol in mesh to amount of ethanol in vapour

I am looking forward to your insight.

Sounds ambitious.

There are lots of calculators on the parent site but it would be nice to have them all in one convenient place.

Indeed and coding is not as hard as it seems, I only need the formulas...
