Steam Tables For Apple Computers

In summary, steam tables for Apple computers are a set of reference tables used for thermodynamic calculations, specifically for water and steam. They can be accessed through software programs or online resources and are accurate as long as the input values are correct. While there are also tables available for other substances, there may be limitations for extreme conditions outside of the range of the tables.

I am a consulting engineer that frequently needs to determine the saturation temperature for various steam pressures. I use a mac computer. I have found many steam table calculator applications for PCs, but have been unable to find one that will run on the mac.

Can anyone point me to a downloadable steam table application for the mac? It need not be free, just compatible with the OSx operating system.
