Description

It would be useful to expose

  • USE_MAXWELL_TABLE to get the maxwell constructed table if available
  • EOS_SPLIT_COWAN to turn on Cowan splitting explicitly for electron/ion splitting if needed
  • EOS_CALC_FREE_ENERGY to get a free energy if it's unavailable even if it's less good than a first-principles version
