Adistillation column with 100 kmol/h feed of 41 mole % a (and the rest b) produces a distillate product with xd = 0.92 and a bottom stream with xbot = 0.05 of the more volatile species a. cmo is valid and the equilibrium data is give by y = ax/[1+(a-1)x], where a = 2.86.

a) if the feed is saturated liquid, determine the minimum reflux ratio.

b) if the feed is saturated vapor, determine the minimum reflux ratio. for question c and d, the reflux ratio is 1.5 and the feed is a saturated mixture with q = 0.45.

c) determine the liquid flow rate lbar in the stripping section of the column.

d) determine the mole fraction of a in the vapor stream entering the top equilibrium stage.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
