Homework

A. Discussion Problems
A1. In Figure 2-9 the feed plots as a two-phase mixture, whereas it is a liquid before introduction to

the flash chamber. Explain why. Why can’t the feed location be plotted directly from known
values of T and z? In other words, why does h have to be calculated separately from an equation
F
F
such as Eq. (2-9b)?
