      One possible reason is the wrong setting of the thermodynamic state of the real gas material. For dry real gas or the vapor component of a dry/wet homogeneous binary mixture real gas, the parameter “Thermodynamic State” must explicitly be set to “Gas”, because otherwise the solver assumes the state to be a “Liquid”, and only the liquid properties of the RGP table are used.
