One thousand kilogram-moles per hour of a saturated liquid mixture of 60 mol% methanol, 20 mol% ethanol and 20 mol% n-propanol is fed to the middle stage of a distillation column having three equilibrium stages, a total condenser, a partial reboiler, and an operating pressure of 1 atm. The distillate rate is 600kmol/h, and the external reflux rate is 2,000 kmol/h of saturated liquid. Assuming that ideal solutions are formed such that K-values can be obtained from vapor pressures and assuming constant molar overflow such that the vapor rate leaving the reboiler and each stage is 2,600 kmol/h, calculate one iteration of the BP method up to and including a new set of Tj values. To initiate the iteration, assume a linear-temperature profile based on a distillate temperature equal to the normal boiling point of methanol and a bottoms temperature equal to the arithmetic average of the normal boiling points of the other two alcohols.
