Expander Plant: Flowsheet Description • Flowsheet description: • A single stage expansion of a light hydrocarbon stream • First, feed stream is cooled through a feed chiller (X-1) & any liquid is removed with a vertical separator (F-2). • The vapor is expanded (E-4) & liquids separated using a second vertical separator (F-3).
Expander Plant: Feed stream & Basic Thermodynamics Specifications • Feed stream specification: • Thermodynamics methods used: • K-Value = API Soave • Enthalpy = API Soave • Density = Yen Woods (STD)
Working Session Before we proceed further, let’s look through a process simulation diagram (PSD) practice.
Working Session Remember, as always practice make perfect!
