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 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…

Remembering that the weight of each component is the number of moles of that component times its molecular weight (pounds = MW X moles), the…

The molecular weight of the liquid stream is calculated from the weighted average liquid component molecular weight given by: This is calculated in Table 3-3.…

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…

The molecular weight of the stream is calculated from the weighted average gas molecular weight given by: The molecular weight of the gas stream of…
