D5. Repeat Example 10-2 except calculate the diameter at the bottom of the column at a pressure of 700.0kPa. The surface tension of pure n-heptane at 20C is 20.14 dynes /cm(0.0214N/m ), and the temperature coefficient is -0.0980 dynes /cm/K (wWw .surface-tension.de). Use the DePriester chart to estimate bottoms temperature. Example 10-2 A sieve-plate distillation column is separating a feed that is 50 mole \% n-hexane and 50 mole \% n-heptane. Feed is a saturated liquid. Plate spacing is 24 in. Average column pressure is 1 atm. Distillate composition is xD= 0.999 (mole fraction n-hexane) and xB=0.001. Feed rate is 1000 Ibmol/h. Internal reflux ratio L/V=0.8. The column has a total reboiler and a total condenser. Determine the required diameter at the top of the column
