CONFIDENTIAL BKC/1617/BKF2343 QUESTION 1 An equimolar vapor mixture of n-pentane and n-hexane at 110°C and 1 atm is fed into a condenser at a rate of 200 L min When the feed is cooled and compressed in the condenser, some of the vapor is condensed. The products are separated and discharged in separate streams. The vapor and liquid products at the top and the bottom of the condenser are(in equilibrium at 60°C and pressure P mmHg. The vapor product stream...
A mixture containing 35 mole% n-butane and the balance isobutane at 10°C enters a heat exchanger at a rate of 24.5 kmol/h and at 1.96 bar pressure. The exchanger has been designed to heat and vaporize the liquid and heat the vapor mixture to 180°C. The heating fluid is a high molecular weight liquid with a constant heat capacity (Cp=2.62 kJ/kg C).It enters the exchanger at 215°C and flows countercurrently to the hydrocarbon mixture. According to the heat exchanger design...
