Hello class!

I just fixed the EEM homepage so you can download EES.  But it is tricky!

The web browser won't let us download files with an EXE extension.  Thus, I renamed setup_ees.exe to setup_ees_exe.zip, even though it is an EXE file and not a ZIP.  This solves the problem of downloading EES.  To run the setup program, you need to rename setup_ees_exe.zip to   setup_ees.exe before running it.

I know this stuff is a bit hard, but stay with it.  It is great review to:  1) remember you can define all properties if you know two independent properties, 2) write energy and mass balances to model a system, and 3) utilize the power of EES.  

Have fun.

Hi Class,

If you are having trouble renaming the "setup_ees_exe.zip" to "setup_ees.zip", try these tips:

XP:  Be sure you are actually changing the name to  'setup_ees.exe'.  To be sure you actually changed the name, disable the "Hide extensions for known file types" in Windows Explorer, Options, View.

Vista:  At startup menu, select "Default Programs" from right sidebar,  then select  'Set Program Access and Computer defaults",  then uncheck the option about hiding file extensions, apply

Thanks Ann!
