none given and no Visual Studio installed, CMake defaults to NMake Makefiles

See the [Windows Notes](https://nasa.github.io/cea/installation.html#windows-notes)
section of the full installation guide for Intel oneAPI and other options.

This will build and install the `cea` executable, `libcea` library, default
thermodynamic and transport property databases, documentation, and sample
problems to the user-specified `cea_install_dir`.
