OLGA Fluid Handling Workshop

This one day workshop combines lectures and hands-on examples to better understand the various options that are available in OLGA to simulate the fluid phase behavior and physical property predictions.  The workshop shows how to use the various options, and, more importantly, when to use them and when not to use them.
