During the analysis of a large process system, the values of certain design variables must be preassigned to allow the solution of the design equations. A careless selection of these distinguished variables can lead to trouble, magnifying computational problems above what need be. A method is proposed for determining a set of design variables which could minimize the computational labor associated with process analysis. This work is part of a larger project on the computer aided design of process systems.
