Assignment

A stream of propane at temperature T = 423 K and pressure p(atm) flows at a rate of


100.0 kmol/hr. Use the SRK equation of state to estimate the volumetric flow rate flow
̇
𝑉𝑓𝑙𝑜𝑤 of the stream for p = 0.7 atm, 7 atm, and 70 atm. In each case, calculate the
percentage differences between the predictions of the SRK equation and the ideal gas
equation of state. Data for propane: Tc = 369.9 K, pc = 42.0 atm, and ω = 0.152.

The SRK equation is written in the form


𝑅̅ 𝑇 𝛼𝑎
𝑓(𝑣̅ ) = 𝑝 − 𝑣̅−𝑏 + 𝑣̅(𝑣̅+𝑏)

The problem already solved in your note. You are required to:
1. Show that
𝑅̅ 𝑇 𝛼𝑎(2𝑣̅+𝑏)
𝑓 ′ (𝑣̅ ) = (𝑣̅−𝑏)2 − [𝑣̅(𝑣̅+𝑏]2
2. Show the iteration using Newton’s method.
