I need to evaporate 277.5 kg of water and 462.5 kg of p-xylene first, and then 112.5 kg of p-xylene. Where should I start calculating the total amount to be evaporated? Are there calculation methods in the principles of chemical engineering or process design manuals? I forgot to add that water and xylene form an azeotrope
Isn’t the total evaporation the sum of the three?
Yeah. How do you calculate the individual evaporation amount?
Q=cm△t c: specific heat capacity m: mass △t: temperature difference
