functionsetSat_T
iterative calculation of saturation properties from EoS with Newton-Raphson algorithm
Information
This function iteratively determines the saturation state for a given temperature
by varying the density of saturated liquid and saturated vapor
with a Newton-Raphson approach for simultaneous equations (see setSat_T_Newton).
If this fails close to the critical point, the solution is approached by continuation in decades of (1-T/T_crit),
starting at T=0.9*T_crit, where each step is predicted with the local critical exponent.
