Description

template<class Scalar, class FluidSystem>
class Dumux::CompositionalFlash< Scalar, FluidSystem >

Flash calculation routines for compositional sequential models.

Routines for isothermal and isobaric 2p2c and 1p2c flash, assuming an ideal mixture. The flash assumes that the fugacities of a component \( \kappa \) in each phase are the same. The fugacity is defined as:

\( f^\kappa = \Phi^\kappa_\alpha(T_\alpha, p_\alpha) p_\alpha x^\kappa_\alpha\; \),

where \( Phi^\kappa_\alpha \) is a fixed fugacity coefficient independent of the phase's composition (ideal mixture), \( T_\alpha \) is a fixed temperature, and \( p_\alpha \) a fixed phase pressure. From the equality of fugacities, the mole (and mass) fractions \( x^\kappa_\alpha \) in equilibrium are calculated.

Concentration flash for a given feed fraction

2p2c Flash for constant p & T if concentration (feed mass fraction) is given.

This flash uses the Rachford-Rice equation: Rachford Jr, H. H., & Rice, J. D. (1952). Procedure for use of electronic digital computers in calculating flash vaporization hydrocarbon equilibrium. Journal of Petroleum Technology, 4(10), 19-3.

Routine goes as follows:

  • determination of the equilibrium constants from the fluid system
  • determination of maximum solubilities (mole fractions) according to phase pressures
  • comparison with phase mass fraction Nu (from Rachford-Rice equation) to determine phase presence => actual mole and mass fractions
  • complete fluid state
    Parameters
    fluidStateThe sequential fluid State
    Z0Feed mass fraction: Mass of first component per total mass \(\mathrm{[-]}\)
    phasePressureVector holding the pressure \(\mathrm{[Pa]}\)
    temperatureTemperature \(\mathrm{[K]}\)

Saturation flash for a given saturation (e.g. at boundary)

2p2c flash for constant p & T if the saturation instead of concentration (feed mass fraction) is known.

Routine goes as follows:

  • determination of the equilibrium constants from the fluid system
  • determination of maximum solubilities (mole fractions) according to phase pressures
  • complete fluid state
    Parameters
    fluidStateThe sequential fluid state
    saturationSaturation of phase 1 \(\mathrm{[-]}\)
    phasePressureVector holding the pressure \(\mathrm{[Pa]}\)
    temperatureTemperature \(\mathrm{[K]}\)
