The phase stability and phase split problems can be formulated as minimization problems, or as equivalent nonlinear equation solving problems. There are several versions of this two-stage approach With the choice of the proper thermodynamic state functions, the two stage framework can be applied to phase equilibrium problems with various types of specifications (e.g. Constant temperature and pressure, constant temperature and density, isentropic, isenthalpic, etc.). For determining phase equilibrium at constant temperature and pressure, the case considered here minimum in the total Gibbs energy of the system. Phase stability analysis may be interpreted as a global optimality test that determines whether the phase being tested corresponds to a global minimum in the total Gibbs energy of the system. An alternative approach for solving the phase stability problem is the use of interval analysis which uses an interval Newton/generalized bisectionAlgorithm, NRTL Model and SAFT method.
