fv1 = [P -(R*T+P*b1) a1 -a1*b1];
v1l = min(roots(fv1))
fv2 = [P -(R*T+P*b2) a2 -a2*b2];
v2l = min(roots(fv2))
y1=x1.*lamda1*P1sat*v1l/P
y2=x2.*lamda2*P2sat*v2l/P
fT=y1+y2-1;
end
How to solve this? I want to get T, y1 and y2 values. There is variable in range, which is x1. There are also some functions of T and one function include cubic function

Why are you using global variables? That makes debugging harder and is generally bad practice.
What have you tried yourself to find a solution? It looks like your function will error when you input a scalar. Have you confirmed it works as expected on scalar input?

Hi. From my understanding of the question, you want to write a function which outputs the values for "fT", "y1" and "y2". This can be done by changing the function declaration to:
function [fT,y1,y2]=NRTLFUN(T)
The function can then be called by:
[fT, y1, y2] = NRTLFUN(T);
However, this function will not work with "fzero" as "fzero" expects the input function to be scalar-valued. You can read more about function requirements for "fzero" on the documentation page.
