Homotopy continuation based prediction of azeotropy in binary and multicomponent mixtures through equations of state†
Abstract
A method to compute all the azeotropes in homogeneous binary and multicomponent mixtures for entire two-phase pressure range is described. The method is based on solving the necessary condition of azeotropy for all the possible solutions through homotopy continuation approach. The method is mathematically guaranteed to predict all the possible azeotropes and is in close agreement with
