Question: Problem StatementIt is required to cool a chemical compound Y ( which is in vapor phase ) with 2 interstage coolers according to the following

Problem StatementIt is required to cool a chemical compound Y (which is in vapor phase) with 2 interstage coolers according to the following specification: The outlet stream from the first cooler should be in vapor phase but the temperature should be reduced. In the second stage, the outlet stream is expected to be in liquid only phase.Further details The feed enters the first cooler at a pressure of 10 bar and a temperature, which is 40 oC above its boiling point at the given pressure. The pressure should be maintained at 10 bar for all the coolers. The mass flowrate of the feed is 500 kg/h.Questions:1. Use Aspen Plus to obtain PV, TV and PT diagrams and explain each of them.2. Using the diagram you obtained above, determine the entry and exit temperature in each of the three coolers.3. Simulate the process in Aspen Plus environment.4. What is the power requirement for each of the stages.5. How would you verify the results obtained from your Aspen Plus simulation.6. Explain the effect of increasing the pressure in each of the cooler to 20 bar.The compound is benzen and iwant images ib aspen plus and excel, as well as calculation and solutions in aspen plus
