Hello, I have an equation
N = (DP/RT * ln(P/(P-P*)))/(L/A) + (l/a))
P,R,T,P*,(L+l), and A are known. L+l is always .05
There is some experimental data
l = .004, N = 6.6e-11
l = .008, N = 4.9e-11
l = .012, N = 4.0e-11
I am trying to find D and a. So I make a function and I try to use fsolve, but when I do I just get an erroneous answer. I am saying D(1) = D, and D(2) = a in my function
function F = stefanflow(D)
P = 1e5;
T = 294;
R = 8.314e3;
A = 1e-4;
P_sat = 1.12e4;
O = log(P/(P-P_sat));
I = P/(R*T);
F = zeros(3,1);
F(1) = 6.6e-11 - (D(1)*I*O)/(((.05-.004)/A)+(.004/D(2)));
F(2) = 4.9e-11 - (D(1)*I*O)/(((.05-.008)/A)+(.008/D(2)));
F(3) = 4.0e-11 - (D(1)*I*O)/(((.05-.012)/A)+(.012/D(2)));
I run this in my script file
options = optimoptions('fsolve','Display','iter');
[D,fval] = fsolve(@stefanflow,[1e-5;1e-5],options);
And this is my output
Warning: Trust-region-dogleg algorithm of FSOLVE cannot handle
non-square systems; using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm instead.

Equation solved, fsolve stalled.
fsolve stopped because the relative size of the current step is less than the
default value of the step size tolerance and the vector of function values
is near zero as measured by the default value of the function tolerance.

What is going on, and how can I solve this system?

Fsolve is happy with the starting values. It told you that fact. They meet the convergence criteria, so why look beyond that point?

The solution fsolve gave you appears to satisfy the equations very well,
>> stefanflow(D)
ans =
1.0e-11 *
0.9493
0.9167
0.9243
So, either you have incorrectly coded your equations, or they have multiple solutions that you don't expect.
You could also try making the tolerances more strict,
options = optimoptions('fsolve','Display','iter','TolFun',1e-30,'TolX',1e-30);
When I try this, it produces a small change in the solution,
D =
1.0e-04 *
0.1013
0.1391
but maybe that's significant to you.

I only see two elements in D. The first is 1e-4*0.1013, the second is 1e-4*0.1391.

Rick - I think you miss that the first "number" shown is not an element of D, but an exponent applied to those numbers. Note the little * after that number.
