Abstract
AbstractThree related proposals are made for accelerating the familiar successive substitution procedure for phase equilibrium flash calculations. Basic to the development of the acceleration procedures is the observation that successive substitution can be regarded as a method of steep descent for free energy minimization. Acceleration is obtained by choosing an optimal step length. Results show a significant decrease in the number of iterations required for convergence, even in difficult problems near the mixture critical point.
