00:01 | Welcome to this spoken tutorial on Binary Phase Envelope in DWSIM. |
00:07 | In this tutorial, we will learn to generate: Txy plot at given pressure, |
00:14 | xy plot for the obtained Txy data, |
00:18 | Pxy plot at given temperature. |
00:22 | To record this tutorial, I am using DWSIM 5.2 (Classic UI) and Windows 10. |
00:32 | The process demonstrated in this tutorial is identical in other OS also, such as-
Linux, Mac OS X or FOSSEE OS on ARM. |
00:44 | To practice this tutorial, you should know to : add components to a flowsheet, |
00:51 | Select thermodynamic packages, |
00:54 | add material streams and specify their properties. |
00:59 | The pre-requisite tutorials are mentioned on our website. |
01:04 | You can access these tutorials and all the associated files from this site. |
01:10 | In this tutorial, using DWSIM, we will generate: Txy plot at a constant pressure of 1.013 bar, |
01:21 | xy plot for the obtained Txy data, |
01:25 | Pxy plot at a constant temperature of 75 degree centigrade. |
01:31 | Here we give compounds, inlet stream conditions and property package. |
01:38 | I have already opened DWSIM on my machine. |
01:43 | Go to File menu and select New Steady-state Simulation. |
01:50 | Simulation Configuration Wizard window appears. |
01:54 | At the bottom, click on the Next button. |
01:58 | Now, in the Compounds Search tab, type Ethanol. |
02:04 | Select Ethanol from ChemSep database. |
02:08 | Similarly, add 1-propanol. |
02:12 | At the bottom, click on the Next button. |
02:16 | The Property Packages opens. |
02:19 | From Available Property Packages list, double-click on Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK). |
02:26 | Then click on the Next button. |
02:30 | We are moved to a new window named Flash Algorithm. |
02:35 | From Default Flash Algorithm select Nested Loops(VLE). |
02:41 | At the bottom, click on the Next button. |
02:45 | Next option is System of Units. |
02:49 | Under System of Units, select C5. |
02:54 | At the bottom, click on the Finish button. |
02:58 | Let us maximize the simulation window for better visibility. |
03:03 | Let’s insert a material stream for which we have to generate the Txy, xy and Pxy plots. |
03:12 | On the right hand side of the main simulation window, go to Flowsheet Objects. |
03:19 | In the Filter List tab, type Material Stream. |
03:24 | From the displayed list, drag and drop a Material Stream to the Flowsheet. |
03:30 | Click on the Material Stream “MSTR-000” to view its properties. |
03:37 | Let’s change the name of this stream to Feed. |
03:41 | Now we will specify the Feed stream properties. |
03:46 | Go to Input Data. |
03:48 | Select Flash Spec as Temperature and Pressure (TP), if not already selected. |
03:55 | By default, Temperature and Pressure are already selected as Flash Spec. |
04:01 | Change Temperature to 30 degree Centigrade and press Enter. |
04:07 | Change Pressure to 3.5 bar and press Enter. |
04:13 | Change Molar Flow to 120 kmol/h and press Enter. |
04:20 | Now, let us specify the feed stream compositions. |
04:25 | Under Composition, choose the Basis as Mole Fractions, if not already selected. |
04:33 | By default, Mole Fractions will be selected as Basis. |
04:38 | For Ethanol, enter the Amount as 0.5 and press Enter. |
04:46 | Similarly, for 1-propanol, enter it as 0.5 and press Enter. |
04:54 | On the right side, click on this green tick to Accept Changes. |
04:59 | Now ,we will see how property package calculates phase equilibrium data of compounds. |
05:06 | To do this, go to Utilities. |
05:10 | Click on Add Utility. |
05:13 | In the Add Utility window, under Object Type, select Material Streams. |
05:20 | Under Utility Type, select Binary Phase Envelope. |
05:25 | Under Flowsheet Object, select Feed. |
05:29 | At the bottom, click on the Add Utility button. |
05:34 | Binary Phase Envelope window opens. |
05:37 | Let us adjust the phase envelope window for better visibility. |
05:43 | Enter Name as Txy-plot. |
05:49 | Go to Diagram Settings. |
05:52 | Select Ethanol as Compound 1, if not already selected. |
05:57 | By default, Ethanol is selected as Compound 1. |
06:02 | Make sure that the other compound is selected as Compound 2. |
06:07 | In this case, it is 1-propanol which is Compound 2. |
06:12 | Select Envelope type as Txy, if not already selected. |
06:19 | By default, Txy is selected as Envelope type. |
06:24 | Select Txy Diagram Options as VLE, if not already selected. |

06:36 | Select X-Axis Basis as Mole Fraction, if not already selected. |
06:43 | By default, Mole Fraction is selected as X-Axis Basis |
06:48 | Enter Pressure as 1.013 bar. |
06:53 | Here we are going to plot a Txy diagram. |
06:56 | So, let's not worry about the pressure value. |
07:00 | Make sure that the property package is selected as Soave-Redlich-Kwong. |
07:07 | Now click on Calculate button at the bottom. |
07:12 | The diagram generated is a Txy diagram or Constant Pressure Phase Diagram. |
07:19 | X-axis indicates the mole fraction of Ethanol. |
07:23 | Y -axis indicates the temperature range for which the VLE is generated. |
07:29 | The lower line of the envelope represents Bubble Point Curve. |
07:34 | Hover the mouse to the lower line at Ethanol mole fraction of 0.5. |
07:40 | We can see the bubble point temperature to be 86.2853 degree Centigrade. |
07:47 | For any mixture composition below this line, is subcooled liquid. |
07:52 | The upper line of the envelope represents Dew Point Curve. |
07:57 | Hover the mouse to the upper line at Ethanol mole fraction of 0.5. |
08:03 | We can see the dew point temperature to be 89.5881 degree Centigrade |
08:10 | For any mixture composition above this line, the mixture is superheated vapour. |
08:16 | The area enclosed between these two lines is the VLE region. |
08:21 | Here, both vapor and liquid phases exist in equilibrium. |
08:26 | We can see the bubble points and dew points at every composition. |
08:32 | For this, go to Results section and click on Table. |
08:37 | Here we can see the corresponding mole fractions and temperatures values. |
08:43 | Let us now generate the xy plot for data obtained in the above Txy diagram. |
08:49 | Close this window. |
08:53 | Go to Utilities and click on Add Utility. |
08:58 | In the Add Utility window, under Object Type, select Material Streams. |
09:06 | Under Utility Type, select Binary Phase Envelope. |

10:24 | Hover the mouse to the upper line at Ethanol mole fraction of 0.6. |
10:30 | We can see the vapour phase mole fraction of Ethanol to be 0.7539. |
10:37 | Let us generate the Pxy plot now. |
10:41 | Close this window. |
10:45 | Go to Utilities and click on Add Utility. |
10:50 | In the Add Utility window, under Object Type, select Material Streams. |

11:53 | So, let us not worry about the temperature value. |
11:57 | Make sure that the property package is selected as Soave-Redlich-Kwong. |
12:03 | Now, click on Calculate button at the bottom. |
12:07 | The diagram generated is a Pxy diagram or Constant Temperature Phase Diagram. |
12:13 | X-axis indicates the mole fraction of Ethanol. |
12:17 | Y -axis indicates the pressure range for which the VLE is generated. |
12:23 | The lower line of the envelope represents Dew Points. |
12:28 | Hover the mouse to the lower line at Ethanol mole fraction of 0.4. |
12:34 | We can see the dew point pressure to be 0.523 bar. |
12:39 | For any mixture composition below this line, is completely vapour. |
12:45 | The upper line of the envelope represents Bubble Points. |
12:49 | Hover the mouse to the upper line at Ethanol mole fraction of 0.8. |
