We describe here the application of a new parallel interval Newton/generalized
bisection algorithm for solving the large, sparse, nonlinear algebraic
equation systems arising in chemical process flowsheeting. The algorithm
is based on the simultaneous application of root inclusion tests to multiple
interval regions, and it is designed for implementation on MIMD computers
with a combination of local and shared memory. The algorithm was tested
successfully on several relatively small flowsheeting problems. The tests
were performed using between 2 and 32 nodes of a BBN TC2000 parallel computer.
