Determination of Bubble-point and Dew-point
Temperatures of Multicomponent Mixtures
By elimination of yi in the
second equation and replace
in by Kixi then we have:
The Ki=Ki(T) and we have to
find The temperature so the f(T)
is represent the dependence of
Ki to temperature. Newton
method and trial and error is
needed here to find the T that
make f(T)=0,
Finally the bubble point
temperature will be obtained.
Determination of Bubble-point and Dew-point
Temperatures of Multicomponent Mixtures
Solution a):
Determination of Bubble-point and Dew-point
Temperatures of Multicomponent Mixtures
Thus:

Thus
Then

The problem in flash process is to find the total flow rates Vf and Lf
and respective compositions {yi} and {xi} for the vapor and liquid
streams formed in the flash process.
The equlibrium and material balance relations made 2c+2 equation
for 2c+2 unknown (xi, yi, Lf anf Vf).

Solution:
First we have to be sure that the TF lies between dew point
and bubble point temperatures.
