ChemPotVSaturation(V0)
ChemPotVSaturation(;vl = nothing,
                    vv = nothing,
                    crit = nothing,
                    crit_retry = true

                    rtol = 1e-12,
                    max_iters = 10^4)

Default saturation_pressure Saturation method used by Clapeyron.jl. It uses equality of Chemical Potentials with a volume basis. If no volumes are provided, it will use x0_sat_pure. If those initial guesses fail and the specification is near critical point, it will try one more time, using Corresponding States instead. when crit_retry is true, if the initial solve fail, it will try to obtain a better estimate by calculating the critical point. f_limit, atol, rtol, max_iters are passed to the non linear system solver.

ChemPotDensitySaturation <: SaturationMethod
ChemPotDensitySaturation(;vl = nothing,
                        vv = nothing,
                        crit = nothing,
                        f_limit = 0.0,
                        atol = 1e-8,
                        rtol = 1e-12,
                        max_iters = 10^4)

Saturation method for saturation_pressure. It uses equality of Chemical Potentials with a density basis. If no volumes are provided, it will use x0_sat_pure. vl and vl are initial guesses for the liquid and vapour volumes. f_limit, atol, rtol, max_iters are passed to the non linear system solver.

IsoFugacitySaturation <: SaturationMethod
IsoFugacitySaturation(;p0 = nothing,
    vl = nothing,
    vv = nothing,
    crit = nothing,
    max_iters = 20,
    p_tol = sqrt(eps(Float64)))

Saturation method for saturation_pressure. Uses the isofugacity criteria. Ideal for Cubics or other EoS where the volume calculations are cheap. If p0 is not provided, it will be calculated via x0_psat.

ClapeyronSaturation <: SaturationMethod
ClapeyronSaturation(T0 = nothing, crit = nothing, satmethod = ChemPotVSaturation())

Saturation method for saturation_temperature. It solves iteratively saturation_temperature(model,Ti,satmethod) until convergence, by using the Clapeyron equation:

dp/dT = ΔS/ΔV

It descends from the critical point (or T0, if provided). Reliable, but slow.

It is recommended that T0 > Tsat, as the temperature decrease iteration series is more stable. Default method for saturation_temperature until Clapeyron 0.3.7

AntoineSaturation <: SaturationMethod
AntoineSaturation(;T0 = nothing,
                    vl = nothing,
                    vv = nothing,
                    f_limit = 0.0,
                    atol = 1e-8,
                    rtol = 1e-12,
                    max_iters = 10^4,
                    crit = nothing,
                    crit_retry = false)

Saturation method for saturation_temperature .Default method for saturation temperature from Clapeyron 0.3.7. It solves the Volume-Temperature system of equations for the saturation condition.

If only T0 is provided, vl and vv are obtained via x0_sat_pure. If T0 is not provided, it will be obtained via x0_saturation_temperature. It is recommended to overload x0_saturation_temperature, as the default starting point calls crit_pure, resulting in slower than ideal times. f_limit, atol, rtol, max_iters are passed to the non linear system solver.
