I can't believe nobody's offered anything on this.
There is an online tutorial of sorts,

Have a look at GPSA Engineering Databook 12E Chapter 13 which should get your feet wet. You'll find the same chapter being referenced in the annual Compression Technology Sourcing Supplement from CTSSNET. After this, you may go through the Ariel application guidelines built into the software which will give you an idea what their equation basis is.
