Consider the ternary system aniline-methylcyclopentane--hexane at . For temperatures above , this ternary system gives a type I liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) diagram. The Demonstration uses arc-length continuation to compute the LLE diagram. In addition, the conjugate curve (shown in green) is superimposed on the same diagram. As you choose a point on the conjugate curve by dragging the slider, the Demonstration constructs the corresponding tie line in cyan.
