Newbie asking how to calculate evaporation rate

2016-11-24View Original

Thread Content

I need to evaporate 277.5 kg of water and 462.5 kg of p-xylene first, and then evaporate 112.5 kg of p-xylene. Where should I start counting the total amount to be evaporated? A poor student in martial arts.

The saturated pressures and latent heats of vaporization of each component at relevant pressures. The heating part at the front is sensible heat.

Is it mentioned in the principles of chemical engineering, or in the process design manual?

The quantification of the evaporation time depends on the heat transfer conditions and mode; the heat required to evaporate the total amount of each component can be calculated from 1 ; 3. The specifications of the required equipment can be determined based on the process requirements ; 4. Based on the known equipment specifications, conversion can be carried out through thermal balance calculations, thereby determining the equipment specifications required for the desired amount of evaporation ; The process of calculating evaporation follows two steps: A, mass conservation ; B. Thermal equilibrium calculation ; (Calculations are done in an adiabatic state, with heat loss taken into account later.) There should be standard guidelines to follow for such calculations……

Is there an azeotrope? Let’s calculate it using simulation software

It’s reaching an azeotrope. Drink xylene water
