Description
Summary:We describe a canonical form of electrolyte solution systems for the mathematical interpretation of solid-liquid equilibrium. The canonical form is obtained from the analysis of the algebraic structure of electrolyte solutionsystems and the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions for the minimization of the total Gibs free energy. As a result,the mathematical role of solid species in the solid-liquid equilibrium problem is explained as a Lagrange multiplierof a sort of the linearly constrained optimization problem. This finding wil add to the development of an efficientnumerical algorithm for the simulation of electrolyte solution systems. KCI Citation Count: 3
