A fuel distributor supplies four liquid fuels, each of which has a different ratio of ethanol to gasoline.
Five percent of the demand is for E100 (pure ethanol), 15% for E85 (85.0 volume% ethanol), 40% for E10 (10.0% ethanol), and the remainder for pure gasoline. The distributor blends gasoline and ethanol to produce E85 and E10, and the four products are produced continuously.
- Draw and label a flowchart for the blending operation, letting V represent the combined volumetric flow rate of all four fuels and VGand VE represent the volumetric flow rates of gasoline and ethanol sold as fuels and sent to the blending operation.
