where the enthalpies have units <strong>of</strong> energy per mole.<br />

Phase equilibrium (NC per tray):<br />

- ~‘,H,-L,h,-S;4h,-S,YH” (3.99)<br />

Y,*j = Lj, Pm. T-1 (3.100)<br />

An appropriate vapor-liquid equilibrium relationship, as discussed in Sec. 2.2.6,<br />

must be used to find y~j. Then Eq. (3.96) can be used to calculate the ynj <strong>for</strong> the<br />

inefficient tray. The y,‘_ r, i would be calculated from the two vapors entering the<br />

tray: FL-, and V,-,.<br />

Additional equations include physical property relationships to get densities<br />

and enthalpies, a vapor hydraulic equation to calculate vapor flow rates from<br />

known tray pressure drops, and a liquid hydraulic relationship to get liquid flow<br />
