When calculating in Tracking mode, the Compositional calculations tab with PVT calculators becomes available on the Network calculation tab.
On the Compositional calculations tab (when a compositional PVT model is linked), you can plot a phase diagram, hydrate and wax formation curves, assess the position of the operating point relative to the plotted curves, and run a Phase equilibrium (Flash) calculation.
