Top distillation column rate

Input(s)

G: Gas Mass Velocity (lb/ft2 s)\left(\mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft}^{2} \mathrm{~s}\right)

F: Packing Factor (dimensionless)

μ1\mu_{1}: Liquid Viscosity (cP)(\mathrm{cP})

ρg\rho_{\mathrm{g}}: Gas Density (lbm/ft3)\left(\mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)

ρ1\rho_{1}: Liquid Density (lbm/ft3)\left(\mathrm{lbm} / \mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)

Output(s)

Y: Top Distillation Column Rate (dimensionless)

Formula(s)

Y=(G2) F(μl0.1)ρg(ρlρg)\mathrm{Y}=\frac{\left(\mathrm{G}^{2}\right) * \mathrm{~F} *\left(\mu_{\mathrm{l}}^{0.1}\right)}{\rho_{\mathrm{g}} *\left(\rho_{\mathrm{l}}-\rho_{\mathrm{g}}\right)}
