ii. Use the Fenske equation to determine the distribution of nonkey
components between distillate and bottoms
iii. Assume that the feed is at its bubble point, use the Underwood
method to estimate Rmin.
iv. Determine N by the Gilliland correlation assuming R/Rmin=1.2, a
partial reboiler, and a total condenser.
v. Estimate feed-stage location.
Use the SRK equation of state and bubble point equation to determine
K-values.
4. Nmin=15 at 250 psia, calculate and plot the percent recovery of C3 in the
distillate as a function of distillate flow rate for the distillation of 1,000
lbmol/h of a feed containing by moles: 3% C2, 20% C3, 37% nC4 ,35%
nC5, and 5% nC6. Obtain K-values from nomograms
