Popis: An extension of the θ methods of convergence wherein it is required that all terminal streams must satisfy simultaneously material balances, energy balances, and equilibrium relationships is presented. By use of this new convergence method, any distillation-type or absorber-type problem may be solved. The procedure has the flexibility of treating any column either as a single unit or a system of any number of subunits. The new procedure permits the direct solution of problems by use of the θ methods which could not be solved by the original method.
