[dwsim-users] New package available for DWSIM

[Daniel W. <dan...@gm...>]

Hi all,

A new library/add-on is available for DWSIM.

The Advanced EOS Library is a bridge which connects DWSIM on Windows and
Linux to a collection of open-source MATLAB/Octave routines which implement
various Equations of State, including PC-SAFT with support for associating
compounds and the Perturbed-Hard-Sphere-Chain (PHSC).

The original project (http://hpp.uva.es/open-source-software-eos/) consists
in a set of MATLAB programs for the calculation of phase equilibrium and
other thermodynamic properties using different equations of state
(classical cubic equations, cubic equations with excess Gibbs energy mixing
rules, group contribution equations and SAFT equations). All programs are
open-source and have been designed to be easily reusable using an
object-oriented programming methodology.

This library exposes these programs to DWSIM as fully-implemented Property
Packages by running them in Octave (https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/)
and reading the results through a C# interface (

).
