The only alternative is to load fine sample sets of tables so that the enthalpy calculation are
consistent. Recall that enthalpy which is obtained by integrating over T and P is heavily
dependent on the density.
A number of water-oil scenarios were run where Bo tables at several temperatures were output
from Rubis and used as input to Emeraude. The figure next shows such an example with the
Emeraude temperature profile (green) overlaying the Rubis input (red) for the same rates.
Even though the match is not perfect - probably because of the remaining interpolation errors
in the Table - the two models are very close.
