Can I use Multiflash for MATLAB with Simulink?
Multiflash is the solution of choice for several commercial simulation packages; see for example: ‘Infochem Links’ on the Infochem web site. Multiflash for MATLAB has several advantages for Simulink users: • A wide range of physical properties is readily available. • Property data is traceable to Infochem or other industry-standard data sources, for Quality Assurance. • Manual entry into simulation models of approximate physical properties through look-up tables or off-line curve-fitting may be eliminated – removing the risk of errors in model data entry. • Modeling may be enhanced with reliable multi-phase/multi-component flash calculations. • Time-consuming iterative calculations may be offloaded from the Simulink environment to the efficient solvers within Multiflash. The Multiflash Interface for MATLAB provides interface functions with familiar MATLAB syntax. Calls to the interface functions may be incorporated in simulations in several ways, including: • From S-function models, to
