ABSTRACT

The contribution briefly characterizes basic service oriented architecture principles as
well as web service as its dominating implementation form. It emphasizes an
importance of uniform thermochemical properties source and thermodynamics
computations for mathematical models creation. For technological processes models
that include models of heating, heat generation and chemical reactions models there are
necessary thermochemical properties and thermodynamics computations as: specific
heat capacity, heat of formation, enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs energy etc. They are defined
by exact value or they can be computed as temperature’s functional dependence. The
contribution deals with possibility of species’ chosen thermochemical properties or
thermodynamics computations providing in web service form. In this way it enables
applications for modelling and control creating using service oriented architecture
principles. The paper also specifies applied function dependency, data structure design
and implementation of web service created for this purpose. It specifies web service
creation procedure, service’s data model and basic regimes service’s operation.
