Summary
The distribution of chemical mass in a multicomponent system held at equilibrium changes when the system’s temperature varies, or when chemical potentials in a phase in contact with the system shift. This chapter discusses how to construct numerical simulations of reaction processes driven by polythermal conditions, or by changing chemical boundary conditions.
