Problem 1. Your job is to design a sieve tray column to distill a mixture of dichloromethane, chloroform, and carbon tetrachlonide. The feed is a saturated liquid at a flow rate of 200kg moles /hr. Under the operating conditions used, the following data is available for the top tray in the column. Temperature =40.8C,P=1.0 bar Liquid flow rate =35383kmol/hr Vapor flow rate =473.47kmol/hr Liquid Data: Mass flow rate =30,750kg/hr Liquid density =1299.38kg/m3 Surface tension =24.64dyne/cm Viscosity =03649cP Vapor Data: Mass flow rate =40,477kg/hr Vapor density =3.3547kg/m3 Use =0.90 and a tray spacing of 24 inches. You can assume the column operates at 70% of flooding Calculate the following based on conditions at the bottom of the column. a. Cibl1 b. Usood c. Anat d. diameter of the column - before and after rounding Report the diameter in units of feet and round up diameter to nearest half foot. Be careful with units. Remember that V(MWV)=Wv Problem 2. Repeat Problem 1 except determine the diameter of a packed column that has a vapor flow rate that is at 60% of flooding. Use 2n metal Pall rings for packing. Report the diameter in units of feet and round up diameter to nearest half foot. Show the values of F,G2F02/(oLgc),,G flooding, G'. Area, and the diameter of the column before and after rounding. For prater, use the density of saturated water at the same temperature (assume pressure has little effect on density)
