|-
||10:01
||Click on '''Open CAPE-OPEN Object Editor.'''

|-
||10:05
||Click on '''SciLab''' tab.

|-
||10:08
||First we will get the '''feed properties''' of the '''material streams'''.

|-
||10:13
||Then we will write the '''calculation routines'''.

|-
||10:17
||Type this code in the '''Script '''tab.

|-
||10:20
||This is to read the '''molar flow rate''' of the '''compounds''' from the '''inlet material streams'''.

|-
||10:26
||Here,''' f1, f2''' and '''f3 '''are the '''variables'''.

|-
||10:31
||They store '''molar flow rate''' of the '''compounds''' from the '''inlet material streams'''.

|-
||10:37
||'''getFeedProp''' is the '''command''' used to read the specified '''feed property'''.

|-
||10:42
||'''1, 2''' and '''3''' are the '''feed port numbers''' in '''SciLab''' to which the '''material streams''' in '''DWSIM''' is connected.

|-
||10:52
||'''flow''' is the '''keyword'''.

|-
||10:54
||'''flow''' indicates that '''components''' in the '''streams''', has to be stored in''' f1,f2,f3''' in form of an '''array'''.

|-
||11:03
||Type this code in the '''Script''' tab.

|-
||11:06
||This is to read the '''molar enthalpy''' of the '''inlet streams''' from the added '''inlet material stream'''.

|-
||11:13
||Here, variables''' h1, h2''' and '''h3''' store the '''molar enthalpy''' of the added '''input material streams'''.

|-
||11:21
||'''enthalpy''' is the '''keyword'''.

|-
||11:24
||It indicate that '''molar enthalpy''' of '''material streams''' has to be stored in '''h1, h2''' and '''h3'''.

|-
||11:32
||Next, type this code.

|-
||11:35
||This is to read the '''pressure''' of the '''inlet streams''' from the added '''inlet material stream'''.

|-
||11:41
||Here, variables''' p1, p2''' and '''p3''' store the '''pressures''' of '''Water, Methanol''' and '''Ethanol streams'''.

|-
||11:49
||'''pressure''' is the '''keyword'''.

|-
||11:51
||It indicates that the '''pressure''' of '''material streams''' has to be stored in the variables''' p1, p2''' and '''p3'''.

|-
|| 11:59
||Now we will code the '''calculation routine'''

|-
|| 12:03
||First we will calculate the '''outlet pressure'''.

|-
||12:07
||For this let us consider the '''outlet pressure''' to be '''average pressure''' of all the '''3 inlet streams'''.

|-
||12:15
||Now, type this code.

'''Outlet pressure''' is calculated and stored in the '''variable p.'''

|-
|| 12:24
||Now we will calculate the '''molar flow rate''' of the compounds in the '''output stream'''.

|-
||12:30
||Type this code in the '''Script '''tab.

|-
||12:33
||'''Molar flow rate''' of '''compounds''' in the '''product stream''' is calculated.

It is stored in the '''variable f''' in form of an '''array'''.

|-
|| 12:43
||Now we will calculate the total '''molar flow rate''' of the '''product stream'''.

|-
||12:49
||Type this code in the '''Script''' tab.

'''Molar flow rate '''of '''product stream''' is calculated and stored in the '''variable totF'''.

|-
|| 12:58
||Now we will calculate the '''enthalpy''' of the '''product stream'''.

|-
||13:04
||Type this code.

'''Enthalpy''' of the '''product stream''' is calculated and stored in the '''variable h'''.

|-
|| 13:12
||Now we will pass the '''calculated variables''' to the '''Mixed Product material stream'''.

|-
||13:18
||Type this code.

'''setProduct''' indicates that, '''variables''' in the braces are to be passed to the '''stream''' in the '''product'''.
