“…In the following, the proposed numerical method is assessed based on the computational time for wide ranges of membrane length (0.1–2.5 m) and feed pressure (4–70 bar). As discussed in our previous work [ 29 ], these ranges of operating conditions could give rise to some stiff problems, which might not be solved by the conventional variable step Runge-Kutta methods (specifically Runge-Kutta (4,5) formula, the Dormand-Prince pair [ 37 ]). Hence, the proposed numerical method is assessed on the entire ranges as given above.…”
