Question: Use a process simulator to solve Problem 2.D16. Do what if? simulations to see what happens to V/F and product compositions as temperature and/or pressure

Use a process simulator to solve Problem 2.D16. Do "what if?" simulations to see what happens to V/F and product compositions as temperature and/or pressure vary.


Problem 2.D16.

A feed that is 50.0 mol% methane, 10.0 mol% n-butane, 15.0 mol%

A feed that is 50.0 mol% methane, 10.0 mol% n-butane, 15.0 mol% n- pentane, and 25.0 mol% n-hexane is flash distilled. F = 150.0 kmol/h, Pdrum = 250.0 kPa, and Tdrum = 10.0C. Use DePriester charts or Eq. (2- 28). Find V/F, Xi, Yi, V, and L. = In Kar/T + a2/T + a + a In p + a2/p + ap3/P apl
