/**
 * @ingroup thermoprops
 *
 * The SingleSpeciesTP class is a filter class for ThermoPhase. What it does is
 * to simplify the construction of ThermoPhase objects by assuming that the
 * phase consists of one and only one type of species. In other words, it's a
 * stoichiometric phase. However, no assumptions are made concerning the
 * thermodynamic functions or the equation of state of the phase. Therefore it's
 * an incomplete description of the thermodynamics. The complete description
 * must be made in a derived class of SingleSpeciesTP.
 *
 * Several different groups of thermodynamic functions are resolved at this
 * level by this class. For example, All partial molar property routines call
 * their single species standard state equivalents. All molar solution
 * thermodynamic routines call the single species standard state equivalents.
 * Activities routines are resolved at this level, as there is only one species.
 *
 * It is assumed that the reference state thermodynamics may be obtained by a
 * pointer to a populated species thermodynamic property manager class (see
 * ThermoPhase::m_spthermo). How to relate pressure changes to the reference
 * state thermodynamics is again left open to implementation.
 *
 * Mole fraction and Mass fraction vectors are assumed to be equal to x[0] = 1
 * y[0] = 1, respectively. Simplifications to the interface of setState_TPY()
 * and setState_TPX() functions result and are made within the class.
 *
 * Note, this class can handle the thermodynamic description of one phase of one
 * species. It can not handle the description of phase equilibrium between two
 * phases of a stoichiometric compound (such as water liquid and water vapor, below
 * the critical point). However, it may be used to describe the thermodynamics
 * of one phase of such a compound even past the phase equilibrium point, up to
 * the point where the phase itself ceases to be a stable phase.
 *
 * This class doesn't do much at the initialization level. Its
 * SingleSpeciesTP::initThermo() member does check that one and only one species
 * has been defined to occupy the phase.
