Note: Pressure of ingoing LPG has to be more than its vapor pressure (to be liquid), estimated at 8.34 kg/cm2 a =
7.31 kgf/cm2 g. So inlet pressure is assumed 7.3 kgf/cm2 g (not 6.0 kgf/cm2 g), LPG saturated.
Alternatively a temperature lower than 30 oC could be assumed.
(*) Enthalpy data of superheated propane does not exist in 7th edition of Perry.
Enthalpy of saturated propane, Table 3-254, Perry 4th edition, looks consistent with Table 2-297, Perry 7th edition
Comments on used enthalpy values would be welcomed. They will not change present conclusion, but may have an
influence when results are revised and get more precise.
