Input Note: autocalculation features have been turned off. To view updated results, press F9
hLa 14.83458 <= liquid film heat transfer coefficent at tower bottom conditions (set to zero if overall mass transfer coefficient is used)
ky_a 0.01223 <= gas film mass transfer coefficent for very dilute mixtures at tower bottom conditions.
TL1 29.4 degree C
TL2 43.3 degree C
GTH1 2 <= Indicator for the combinations (TG1 and Tas1) will follow [-1 for (TG1, HR1), 0 for (TG1, Y1), 1 for (TG1, pA1), 2 for (TG1, Tas1)]
TG1 29.4 degree C
TW1 23.9 degree C The above three quantities should be input as a single array for GTH1
L 1.356 <= may use a negative number (-X) to indicate that L needs to be determined as X times the minimum or the maximum / X.
G 1.356 <= Either L or G or both must be specified. Input format is the same as L.
Pt 1 <= Operating pressure, atm
Tol 2.00E-06 <= acceptable error in solution
beta 0.65 <= the exponent in ky'a = f(T,P)*vG^beta*L^gamma.
gamma 0.40
eta 0.70 <=the exponent in hLa = constant*L^eta*viscosity^(1-eta)/Pr^0.5 All the above four can be ignored.
