Dejanović et al. (2010) wrote:
Carrying out DWC performance simulations requires great experience and these are more or less computationally very demanding. … well established commercial software packages still do not contain a DWC as a standard model. This however will occur sooner or later, most probably as a simultaneous, equation based model.
Kaibel (2014) wrote:
Due to the potential variability of complex internal configurations, there is no dedicated software package for this purpose. … As there are strong interactions between the parameters, a rather stiff system of equations has to be solved. The convergence behavior of programs with sequential operation is sometimes problematic. Equation-based programs normally show better convergence characteristics.
But, so far, nobody has provided any evidence that that is true!

The Challenges
Considerable effort needed to set up a multi-column model
Difficult to provide adequate initial guesses of linking streams
Slow, no, or false convergence
Some desirable specifications cannot be used (e.g. recovery)

Compared to multi-column models, the ChemSep PCM
Conclusions
Takes very little effort to set up
Requires no initial guesses from engineer
Converges much quicker
Converges to the correct solution when other simulators fail
Makes it easy to model heat transfer across the wall
