Petroleum Components Properties Card Syntax (EOR)

STOMP-EOR allows the user to specify that the nonaqueous liquid and gas are comprised of a number of petroleum components, in addition to the standard CO2 and CH4 components.  A mass conservation equation will be solved for each specified petroleum component. The number of petroleum components, besides the predefined CO2 and CH4 components, is specified via the Solution Control Card.  The syntax for specifying parameters for each petroleum component depends on whether explicit or petroleum fraction grouping is used.  The syntax must follow either the explicit or petroleum fraction grouping option for each petroleum component, but can vary between petroleum components.
