'''Engineering Equation Solver''' (EES) is a commercial software package used for solution of systems of simultaneous [[nonlinear equation|non-linear equationsequation]]s. It provides many useful specialized functions and equations for the solution of thermodynamics and [[heat transfer]] problems, making it a useful and widely used program for mechanical engineers working in these fields. EES stores thermodynamic properties, which eliminates [[iterative method|iterative]] problem solving by hand through the use of code that calls properties at the specified thermodynamic properties. EES performs the iterative solving, eliminating the tedious and time-consuming task of acquiring thermodynamic properties with its built-in functions.

EES also includes [[parametric tables]] that allow the user to compare a number of variables at a time. [[Parametric tables]] can also be used to generate plots. EES can also integrate, both as a command in code and in tables. EES also provides optimization tools that minimize or maximize a chosen variable by varying a number of other variables. Lookup tables can be created to store information that can be accessed by a call in the code. EES code allows the user to input equations in any order and obtain a solution, but also can contain if-then statements, which can also be nested within each other to create if-then-else statements. Users can write functions for use in their code, and also procedures, which are functions with multiple outputs.
