“…Thus, a local solution of the MINLP can be found by a sequence of a few NLPs with gradually tightened bounds. Additionally, external functions (Skiborowski et al, 2015) are added to GAMS (Brooke et al, 2005) to accomplish vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) calculations and to provide the associated gradient information. Since the external functions are implemented in a DLL, in the programming language according to the requirements of GAMS, there is some overhead for communication, but the robustness of the optimization problem is increased significantly (Skiborowski et al, 2015).…”

Since the external functions are implemented in a DLL, in the programming language according to the requirements of GAMS, there is some overhead for communication, but the robustness of the optimization problem is increased significantly (Skiborowski et al, 2015). Although the reformulation of the optimization problem by means of NCC and the utilization of external functions improve the robustness of the optimization runs, still a suitable initialization procedure is necessary to provide a feasible starting point.…”

“…Another recently proposed strategy to deal with model discontinuities arising from a change in the number of phases is to carry out phase stability and equilibrium calculations for each stage via an external function. 20 The effective handling of these implicit constraints remains an active area of research.…”
