How to solve
[PVTsim] This is a question regarding phase envelope and equilibrium concept.
a. Using PVTsim with the PR EOS, show the following on the same P-T figure:
PT cross section for the equimolar mixture of C2 and nC5
Vapor pressure curve of C2
Vapor pressure curve of nC5.
Indicate the critical point of the equimolar mixture clearly.
b. On the same figure, add another PT cross section for 10mol%C2 and 90 mol%nC5. Indicate clearly the critical point for this mixture.
c. Consider the mixing of two fluids vec(x) and vec(y), where vec(x)=[0.10.9] and vec(y)=[0.50.5]. That is, vec(x) represents 10mol%C2 and 90mol%nC5(part "b"), and vec(y) represents the equimolar mixture (part "a"). Read the

(approximate) intersection of the dew-point curve for vec(y) and the bubble-point curve of vec(x).
It is approximately 370K and 1255kPa.
d. Consider the mixing of L moles of vec(x) with V moles of vec(y), in which L+V=1. What is the resulting overall composition vec(Z)(you can pick a value for L. vec(Z)cvec(x)vec(y)0
