Computation of the Residue Curve Map
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
This Demonstration plots the residue curve map (or RCM). You can change the relative volatilities of the three components 
, 
, and 
of the ideal ternary mixture considered here.
