Modified Murphree plate efficiency

This presentation is limited to two models, the Murphree plate efficiency and the modified Murphree plate efficiency, and their applications to columns in the service of separating both binary and multicomponent mixtures. For convenience of application, these efficiencies are restated in terms of the vaporization plate efficiency. Definitions of the vaporization point and plate efficiency follow immediately and the Murphree plate efficiencies are defined in a subsequent section as they arise in the development of the perfectly mixed liquid phase model. [Pg.454]

In the Murphree and modified Murphree plate efficiencies, it is supposed that the vapor and liquid leaving each plate are in thermal equilibrium Tj = Tjf = Tj. Since the sum of the y s over all components is equal to unity, it is evident from Eq. (13-39) that... [Pg.456]

First the equations for the modified Murphree plate efficiency are developed and then the corresponding equations for the Murphree plate efficiency are developed. Expressions for the vaporization efficiencies for each of these efficiencies are then presented. The section is concluded by the presentation of numerical examples for binary mixtures which demonstrate that essentially the same compositions of the vapor leaving a plate are predicted by vaporization efficiencies corresponding to the modified Murphree efficiency model as are predicted by the Murphree plate efficiencies. This result suggests that the correlations for the film coefficients developed by others4 for use with Murphree efficiencies may be used in the prediction of vaporization efficiencies for multi-component systems. [Pg.457]

The modified Murphree plate efficiency model consists of the following set of assumptions. [Pg.457]

Then, it follows from Eqs. (13-46) and (13-48) that one should be able to predict the modified Murphree plate efficiency on the basis of the total number of overall transfer units, namely,... [Pg.458]

The assumptions for the Murphree plate efficiency model are the same as those for the modified Murphree plate efficiency model except for the additional assumption that the liquid leaving each stage is at its bubble-point temperature. The beginning equation for the development of the expression for the Murphree plate efficiency is obtained by replacing Rt in Eq. (13-23) by the expression given by Eq. (13-29) to give... [Pg.460]

In this case an assumption in addition to those stated for the modified Murphree plate efficiency model is made. This assumption is that the liquid is perfectly mixed vertically but not horizontally, and that the liquid is at its bubble-point temperature at each point on the plate. Thus, along any one vertical line, the bubble-point temperature is the same, but it varies from point to point in the horizontal direction W. [Pg.460]

The following calculational procedure was used to compute the vaporization plate efficiencies (corresponding to the modified Murphree plate efficiency model) ... [Pg.462]

Comparison of the Murphree Plate Efficiencies and the Vaporization Efficiencies Corresponding to the Modified Murphree Efficiency Model... [Pg.461]

The vaporization plate efficiency (based on the modified Murphree efficiency model) and the Murphree plate efficiency have two points [(xji,yj+i, i) and (xfl9 yfji)] in common as may be seen from Fig. 13-3. The expression for the line connecting these two points is... [Pg.461]

After the interface point has been reached, the paths for the two models differ. In the case of the vaporization plate efficiency (based on the modified Murphree efficiency model), a projection is made from the point (xjf, yj,) to the point (xji, yji) with the slope Kjt that satisfies Eq. (13-40). In the case of the Murphree plate efficiency, a projection is made from the point (xjf, yj,) to the point (x i, yft) along the tangent line, yf = mjXj + blm Since the equilibrium curve is seldom straight, an appropriate value of mi lying between the values at (xf, y ) and (xjj, yft) is selected. The values of yjt predicted by use of vaporization efficiencies are calculated by use of Eqs. (13-40), (13-47), and (13-51). [Pg.462]

Examples 13-1 and 13-2 demonstrate that for the same set of film coefficients (w L, riG) and compositions xjU yj+ approximately the same values of yn are obtained by use of vaporization plate efficiencies (based on the modified Murphree model) as are obtained by use of Murphree plate efficiencies for binary mixtures. This result suggests that the existing correlations for riL and riG given in the Bubble-Tray Design Manual4 may be used to estimate the Ej-s for the modified Murphree model for multicomponent mixtures. This statement arises from the fact that the formulas for the vaporization plate efficiencies which were used in the computations for binary mixtures are precisely the same ones that... [Pg.463]

The Kremser equation and its various modified forms consider only the number of theoretical plates, sot the number of actual plates in absorbers and strippers. For cases where the Murphree stage efficiency is known and relatively constant over the length of the tower, a correlation proposed by Nguyen can be used to estimate the total required number of actual plates NT as follows ... [Pg.361]

If desired, (15-54) can be modified to permit real rather than theoretical stages to be computed. Values of the Murphree vapor-phase plate efficiency must then be specified. These values are related to phase compositions by the definition... [Pg.692]
