Michel,
yes, I've been using HSC Chemistry for many years now. I love the way it has grown to the current state, including the SIM simulator, and the rather free way you can define and build your models (in an EXCEL kind of environment), but this also presents the weakness. Creating models is a messy process, making it hard(er) to reuse models. Some parts will easy integrate with CAPE-OPEN. In the passed I defined a wrapper to use it more integrated. Currently HSC Chemistry is shipped with a maintained GIBBS routine, marketed by Outotec and an unmaintained (?) SOLGASMIX executable. The latter may be wrapped to live within a CAPE-OPEN environment. Not too hard to implement, I guess.
regards, Henk
