Comments

To check that the material stream has been properly flashed using Multiflash, a flash calculation is performed within COFE under the very same conditions using the same MultiFlash Property Package. Some results are presented in the table below.

Pressure                                     1 bar

Temperature                             25°C

Flowrate                                 1 mole/sec

Mole fraction WATER                0.8

Mole fraction ETHANOL           0.2

Enthalpy (result)              -37643.504 kcal/hr

Molar vapor fraction (result)       0

 

Disclaimer

CO-LaN is not making any recommendation about usage of either software demonstrated here. Neither CO-LaN is providing any guaranty that these two pieces of software will perform adequately through CAPE-OPEN interfaces in all circumstances. The result of this test is provided solely for demonstration purposes.
