Thermodynamic operations are access via the ThermodynamicOperations class.

Examples of thermodynamic operations are TPflash (specified temperature and pressure), PHflash (specified enthalpy and pressure) and phase envelope calculations. Examples of calculations are given here.

A thermodynamic operations object is created using:

ThermodynamicOperations testOps = new ThermodynamicOperations(testSystem);

A TP flash calculation is run by calling the TPflash method:

testOps.TPflash();

The results of the calculations can be seen by calling:

testSystem.display();
