Descrição

In this work, the Stretched Simulated Annealing Method was applied to identify the stationary points of the tangent plane distance function defined for the Gibbs energy. The classic excess Gibbs energy Non Random Two Liquid model was used for these studies in several multicomponent mixtures, for which specific numerical difficulties were shown. The results obtained by applying the methodology developed in this work were very satisfactory.
