NaphtaliSandholmMethod Class

Implements the Naphtali–Sandholm Simultaneous Correction (SC) method for solving the full set of MESH equations of distillation, absorption, and stripping columns. All equations (material balance, equilibrium, summation, and enthalpy balance) are solved simultaneously using a Newton–Raphson linearisation with Jacobian matrix evaluation.

Methods

CalcStageEnthalpy Calculates enthalpies for a single stage, eliminating parallel/sequential code duplication.
CalcStageKvalues Calculates K-values for a single stage, eliminating parallel/sequential code duplication.
FunctionGradient Computes the Jacobian exploiting block-tridiagonal sparsity via graph coloring. Reduces function evaluations from 2*N to 6*(2*nc+1), independent of stage count.
FunctionValue Evaluates the MESH (Material balance, Equilibrium, Summation, Heat balance) residual functions for all stages given the current variable vector.
SafeLog Safe logarithm that handles non-positive arguments gracefully.
Solve Solves the distillation/absorption column using the Naphtali–Sandholm Simultaneous Correction method.
SolveBlockTridiagonal Solves a block-tridiagonal linear system J*dx = rhs using the Thomas algorithm for block matrices. O(nBlocks * blockSize^3) instead of O(n^3) for dense solve.
SolveColumn(ColumnSolverInputData) Solves the column from a ColumnSolverInputData object using the SC method.

SolveNewtonCustom Custom Newton solver with block-tridiagonal linear solve, backtracking line search, stagnation detection, variable clipping, and best-solution tracking.
ValidateInitialization Validates initialization results from Wang-Henke to prevent corrupted initial estimates.
