mechanicaldup,
LPG should be liquid phase.

The same as any other gas or liquid. Of couse if you have 2 phase flow then it is a bit more complicated.

Like Pan said, determine if you have a liquid or vaporized state before you start.

I'd suggest Crane TP410 as a good starting point.

Be aware that gas equations use Pabs.
