Hello Bobby,
I apologize if I have asked somewhat of a broad question. I'm already familiar with most of the design calculations. I've used the McCabe-Thiele's method to find the number of stages (trays) required, the diameter of the column using the input flowrate of steam from the reboiler and i'm in the stage of slightly modifying the valve tray design to fit this system setting.
For me to run a simulation of ChemCAD, I need to know certain parameters such as the operating pressures of the input feed and inside the column (top and bottom), the flowrates (feed and downcomer) and the reflux ratio. It would be a great deal of help if someone could provide me an idea about this and if there are more necessary calculations to be made.
Thank you,
Jay.
