I think that the answer depends on definition of the phase change:
1. IF the phase change due to the change of delay by DTAU is the change
of [PHAS(FZERO+FOFF) - PHAS(FZERO)] THEN
DPH1 = FOFF * DTAU
2. IF the phase change due to the change of delay by DTAU is change of
[PHAS(FZERO+FOFF)] THEN
DPH2 = (FZERO+FOFF) * DTAU = FZERO*DTAU + DPH1
