Hello everyone,
As you all know in popular Process simulation software like Hysys, unisim, promax etc by only providing composition, temperature, pressure one can get a lot of information of a stream like vapor fraction,molar enthalpy,entropy,density,heat capacity,Cp/Cv, Z factor,Watson K, heat of vaporization,kinematic viscosity etc accurately with the help of property package.
I want to know if there are any practical references,books are available through which we can calculate those property manually ( like in excel) accurately? I know there are lot of thermodynamic books are available but they good only for academic. I would like to have practical references from which I can calculate or understand how to calculate above mentioned properties accurately for real life conditions. My area of work are hydrocarbon /petrochemical plants, to some extent air separation plant.
Presently I am trying to calculate above mentioned properties with Ping Robinson,SRK equation of state for hydrocarbon streams, for my own interest.
Suggestion for any book, documents or other references(can be premium documents) would be highly appreciable. Please note that I don't have much access to simulation software, because I am from plant operation side,not from design side.
If the similar question was already asked in the forum and I am repeating the same,then for that I am truly sorry.
Note: I may have posted the same topic twice on the forum accidentally and don,t know how to delete the duplicate one. please accept my sincere apology for the inconveniences you may have felt. Please consider this as my original post.
With Regards,
