Information

The various volumes and areas should balance the total volumes and total areas.

One thing that has be found was that depending on where the fraction of liquid starts, there is a potential

for the incorrect solution to be found due to the nonlinear behavior of the equations in some regions (e.g., spherical cap).


Also, behavior at fractional liquid volume of 0 causes potential problems (see level variable) and until fixed liquid volumes of 0 or 1 should be avoided.
