Description of the Change
I noticed that when calculating the fugacity for mixtures in Peng-Robinson EoS the results did not quite made sense. Since the fugacity of a component in the mixture must be the same in liquid and gas, I checked the saturation states which both had the same fugacity but different from the overall state. As I am not quite sure the two-phase region is currently appropriately handled in this case, I suggest this PR which returns the sat-state fugacity. It now returns the weighted sum of both sat-states, which is of course equal to the single sat-states (should I just decide on liquid or gas?).
Benefits
Get better fugacity values for two-phase region
Possible Drawbacks
/
Verification Process
Tested before and after change fugacity values for AbstractStates: EoS "HEOS" and "PR":
after the changes, overall and gas/liquid returned the same values
