Many times the designer is given the mole fraction of each component in the feed stream but is not given the mole flow rate for the stream. It may be necessary to estimate the total number of moles in the feed stream (F) from an expected stock tank oil flow rate. As a first approximation, [...]]]></description>

The liquid flow rate in moles per day for a given inlet stream can be determined from Equation 3-17. In our example, for an inlet stream rate of 10,000 moles per day, the liquid flow rate is:


The liquid flow rate in barrels per day can be derived from:


where Q1 = liquid flow rate, bpd
S.G. = [...]]]></description>

Remembering that the weight of each component is the number of moles of that component times its molecular weight (pounds = MW X moles), the specific gravity of the liquid is given by:



Column 5 lists a specific gravity for each component in the liquid phase at standard conditions except as noted. It would be more [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If the flow rate of the inlet stream is known in moles per day then the number of moles per day of gas flow can be determined from:


where V = gas flow rate, moles/day
F = total stream flow rate, moles/day
L = liquid flow rate, moles/day
Derivation of Equation 3-13


Once the mole flow rate of gas is [...]]]></description>
