Class CharacterizationOptions

java.lang.Object
neqsim.thermo.characterization.CharacterizationOptions
public class CharacterizationOptions extends Object
Configuration options for fluid characterization operations.

This class provides a fluent API for configuring how pseudo-component characterization is performed, including options for:

  • Binary interaction parameter (BIP) transfer from reference fluids
  • Component naming conventions
  • Composition normalization
  • Validation report generation

Example usage: 

CharacterizationOptions options =
    CharacterizationOptions.builder().transferBinaryInteractionParameters(true)
        .normalizeComposition(true).namingScheme(NamingScheme.REFERENCE).build();

SystemInterface characterized =
    PseudoComponentCombiner.characterizeToReference(source, reference, options);
