What do the warnings in acid water stripping simulation mean?

2016-03-09View Original

Thread Content

Hello everyone, I am working on an acidic water stripping unit, and I keep getting the following warnings: ** WARNING ** Bubble point FLASH DID NOT SOLVE. Final Temperature(K)= 1, Pressure(KPa)= 247.72, LFRAC= 1, Function= 1.139, Tolerance= 1E-5. (A Dew or Bubble flash in the supercritical region is an arbitrary phase change that is expected to fail.) ** WARNING ** TVP calculations did not converge for STREAM 8, ‘SG1’. The property method used is “sour”; could you let me know what causes these two warnings? Thank you all.

Which version? A simulation file version 9.2 or earlier will suffice

Neither the pressure, feed position, nor temperature is correct; check out a few papers on CNKI

I am also in the *stage of learning, and I intend to replicate what was done in a previous industrial project by referring to its simulation reports. The parameters and feed positions are all based on those from the earlier simulations, and the error in the final simulation results is less than 2%. Yet there are still warnings; I would like to know what exactly these warnings mean
