Point to System of Units | The next option is System of Units. |
System of Units >>C5 | Under System of Units, select C5. |
Click on Finish button. | At the bottom, click on the Finish button. |
Click on Maximize button. | Let us maximize the simulation window for better visibility. |
Cursor on the simulation window. | Now let’s insert a material stream for which we have to calculate Bubble points and Dew points. |
Point to Flowsheet Objects. | On the right hand side of the main simulation window, go to Flowsheet Objects. |
In the Filter List tab, type Material Stream | In the Filter List tab, type Material Stream. |
Click and drag Material Stream to the flowsheet | From the displayed list, drag and drop a Material Stream to the Flowsheet. |
Click on MSTR-000 | Click on the Material Stream “MSTR-000” to view its properties. |
Type Feed | Let’s change the name of this stream to Feed. |
Now we will specify the Feed stream properties. | |
Input Data>>Flash Spec>>Temperature and Pressure(TP) | Go to the Input Data.
Select Flash Spec as Temperature and Pressure (TP), if not already selected. By default, Temperature and Pressure are already selected as Flash Spec. |
Input Data >>Temperature >>25 degree C
Press Enter |
Change Temperature to 25 degree Celsius and press Enter. |
Input Data >>Pressure >>5bar
Press Enter |
Change Pressure to 5 bar and press Enter. |
Now let us specify the feed stream compositions. | |
Composition >>Basis >>Mole Fractions | Under Composition, choose the Basis as Mole Fractions, if not already selected.
By default, Mole Fractions is selected as Basis. |
Methane: 0.05 | Now for Methane, type the Amount as 0.05 and press Enter. |
Ethane: 0.1 | For Ethane, type it as 0.1 and press Enter. |
Propane: 0.15 | Similarly, for Propane, type 0.15 and press Enter. |
Isobutane: 0.1 | And for Isobutane, type 0.1 and press Enter. |
N-butane: 0.2 | Next, for N-butane, type 0.2 and press Enter. |
Isopentane: 0.25 | For Isopentane, type 0.25 and press Enter. |
N-pentane: 0.15 | Lastly, for N-pentane, type 0.15 and press Enter. |
Point to the tick.
Click Accept Changes |
On the right, click on this green tick to Accept Changes. |
Click on Utilities | Now we will see how property package calculates phase equilibrium data of compounds.
To do this, go to Utilities. |
Click on Add Utility | Click on Add Utility. |
Object Type >> Material Streams | In the Add Utility window under Object Type, select Material Streams. |
Utility Type >> Phase Envelope | Under Utility Type, select Phase Envelope. |
Flowsheet Object >> Feed | Under Flowsheet Object, select Feed. |
Click on the Add Utility button. | Then at the bottom, click on the Add Utility button. |
Point to Phase Envelope window. | Phase Envelope window opens. |
Drag the phase envelope window. | Let us adjust the Phase Envelope window for better visibility. |
Name >> BubblePoint-DewPoint | Enter Name as BubblePoint-DewPoint. |
Settings >> Bubble Points | Under Settings, Click on Bubble Points tab. |
Point to Custom Initialization | Select the check box against Custom Initialization. |
Initial Flash >> PVF | We are going to calculate bubble point temperature against given pressure.
So, let Initial Flash method be PVF. Here, we will change only Initial Pressure and Pressure Step. |
Initial Pressure >> 1 bar | Type Initial Pressure as 1 bar and press Enter. |
Pressure Step >> 1 bar | Type Pressure Step as 1 bar and press Enter. |
We will not change any temperature value as we are doing a PVF Flash. | |
Settings >> Dew Points | Now, go to Dew Points tab. |
We will repeat the same process as Bubble Points Initialization. | |
Point to Custom Initialization | Select the check box against Custom Initialization. |
Initial Flash >> PVF | We are going to calculate dew point temperature against given pressure.
So, here also, let Initial Flash method be PVF. Hence we will change only Initial Pressure and Pressure Step |
Initial Pressure >> 1 bar | Type Initial Pressure as 1 bar and press Enter. |
Pressure Step >> 1 bar | Type Pressure Step as 1 bar and press Enter. |
Click on Calculate button at the bottom. | Now click on the Calculate button at the bottom. |
Point to the calculation process. | The calculation process is running in the background. |
Point to the dew points and bubble points. | We can see the dew points and bubble points generated at different pressure and temperatures. |
Results >> Table | Under Results, click on Table. |
Point to the Pb column>>2 bar
Point to the pressure value. |
In the column Pb, look for 2 bar at which we had to calculate the bubble point.
Here is 2 bar under Pb column. |
Point to the Tb column
Point to bubble point temperature value |
Look for temperature in Tb column corresponding to 2 bar.
We can see the bubble point temperature to be minus 91.9274 degree C |
Point 10 bar. | Next we have to find Dew point temperature at 10 bar. |
Point to the Pd column>> 10 bar.
Point to the pressure value. |
In the column Pd, look for 10 bar at which we have to find the dew point.
Here is 10 bar under Pd column. |
Point to the Td column
Point to dew point temperature value |
Look for temperature in Td column corresponding to 10 bar.
We can see the dew point temperature to be 87.396 degree C. |
There is an alternative way by which we can verify the correctness of the above results. | |
For this, let’s get back to flowsheet window. | |
Click on Feed. | Click on Feed. |
Flash Spec >> Pressure and Vapor Fraction (PVF) | Under Input data, select Flash Spec as Pressure and Vapor Fraction (PVF) |
Pressure >> 2 bar | Type Vapor Phase Mole Fraction as 0 and press Enter. |
Vapor Phase Mole Fraction >> 0 | And Pressure as 2 bar and press Enter. |
Point to the temperature value.
Point to the bubble point temperature. |
Now check the temperature which is minus 91.9274 degree C.
This is the bubble point temperature at 2 bar pressure. It matches the value obtained earlier from Phase envelope. |
Similarly, let’s check for Dew point temperature. | |
Flash Spec >> Pressure and Vapor Fraction (PVF) | Let the Flash Spec be same as Pressure and Vapor Fraction (PVF) |
Pressure >> 10 bar | Type Vapor Phase Mole Fraction as 1 and press Enter. |
Vapor Phase Mole Fraction >> 1 | And Pressure as 10 bar and press Enter. |
Point to the temperature value
Point to the bubble point temperature. |
Now check the temperature which is 87.396 degree C.
This is the dew point temperature at 10 bar pressure. It matches the value obtained earlier from Phase envelope. |
Let's summarize. | |
