Abstract
Stability analysis is suggested as a preliminary step in isothermal flash calculations, and a number of numerical methods for stability analysis based on Gibbs' tangent plane criterion are described. These methods, which are applicable for both single phase and multiphase systems, are developed mainly for Equation of State calculations using a single model for all fluid phases. Special adaptions ensuring convergence in critical regions are discussed.
