Using the result from Example 23.4 and assuming a 10- minute holdup time for the liquid and a liquid flowrate of 35 m /h, determine the length of the vessel.

Example 23.4

Consider a horizontal drum used to separate a V-L mixture. The HHAL of the liquid is set at 0.8 D_ves and the vapor and liquid properties are:

Determine the diameter of the drum, D_ves.
