= Activity coefficient of component i<br />

= Molar volume of component i<br />

�i d = Hansen solubility parameter of component i for nonpolar<br />

effect<br />

�i p = Hansen solubility parameter of component i for polar effect<br />

The Hansen model does not require binary parameters. For each component,<br />

it has four input parameters.<br />

Option codes<br />

The Hansen volume is implemented as an input parameter. If the Hansen<br />

volume is not input by the user it will be calculated by an <strong>Aspen</strong> Plus internal<br />

method. You can also request the <strong>Aspen</strong> Plus method using Option Codes in<br />

<strong>Aspen</strong> Plus Interface. The table below lists the option codes.<br />
