Abstract: Cepheid models with enhanced opacity are constructed and used to determine pulsation constants, Q0. These are compared to models without an enhanced opacity. Methods of determining Cepheid masses are investigated using the different models and are compared to results obtained by Gieren. The methods to determine the pulsation and Wesselink masses differ significantly, due to the use of a Q0 that varies with mass, radius and luminosity.
