Transcribed Image Text:# Dew Point Temperature (P and yi are Known)
1. **Estimate T.**
*Note: When Raoult’s law is applicable, select a temperature between \( (T_i^{\text{sat}})_{\text{min}} \) and \( (T_i^{\text{sat}})_{\text{max}} \).*
2. **Rewrite Equation 11 \( \left( P = \frac{1}{\sum_i \frac{y_i}{P_i^{\text{vap}}}} \right) \) as a function of T using Antoine Equations and calculate \( P_{\text{calc}} \).**
3. **Compare \( P_{\text{calc}} \) with the specified P.** If \( P_{\text{calc}} > P \), assume T is too high; if \( P_{\text{calc}} < P \), assume T is too low. When the calculated pressure matches the specified pressure, determine vapor pressures of pure components from Antoine equations.
4. **Mole fractions in the liquid phase are calculated from Equation 5 \( (y_i P = x_i P_i^{\text{vap}}) \).**
## Example 4:
Estimate the dew point temperature of a gas mixture consisting of 50% n-pentane (1), 45% n-hexane (2), and 5% n-heptane (3) at 0.8 bar. Also, calculate the composition of the first drop of liquid.
