You produced a vapor inlet stream that contains 72 mol% Eruditic Acid/28% Sinistrone and flows at 38.8 mol/hour. In order to handle this product more easily, you decide to condense this vapor product to a liquid.
The operating conditions of the vapor stream are 800 K
and 526 mmHg. You feed the stream to a total condenser, which uses
cooling water as the working fluid. You specify the outlet
conditions of the condenser to be 300 K, 760 mmHg. The following
data are available:
Component Heat Capacity, Liq. (kJ/mol/K)
Eruditic Acid: 0.135 + .042T
Sinistrone : 0.368 + .016T
Heat Capacity, Vap. (kJ/mol/K)
Eruditic Acid: 0.0864 + 0.0027T
Sinistrone: 0.128 + 0.0092T
Enthalpy of Vap. (at Tboil; kJ/mol)
Eruditic Acid: 53.2
Sinistrone: 30.1
Tboil
Eruditic Acid: 426K
Sinistrone : 513K
