TUTORIAL SHEET -2

1. Water at1200C and 3 bar is fed into a pump that has only 10% efficiency.
The flowrate of the water is 100 kgmole/h and its outlet pressure from the
pump is 84 bar. Using Peng-Robinson equation of state as a fluid package,
determine the outlet temperature of the water.

Procedure:
Open a new case by using one of the following:
1. Go to the File menu, select New, followed by Case, or
2. Press Ctrl N, or
3. Click the New icon on the toolbar.
Defining the Simulation Basis
1. Enter the following values in the specified fluid package view:

2. Click the Enter Simulation Environment button when you are ready to
start building the simulation.
Installing a Stream:
There are several ways to create stream:
• Press F11. The Stream property view appears, or
• Double-click the Stream icon in the Object Palette.
Defining Necessary Streams
Add a stream with the following values.

Add a second stream with the following properties.

Adding Unit Operations


1. There are a variety of ways to add unit operations in HYSYS:

2. This will install a pump on the PFD as shown in below Figure.


Connecting Pump with Streams
1. From Figure 3-1, double-click on the Pump P-100 icon to open the pump
window as
shown in below Figure.

2. In the Inlet, scroll down to select Feed and Outlet in the Outlet as shown
in below Figure.

3. From above Figure, the warning red message bar at the bottom of the
window indicating that we need an energy stream. To create an energy
stream for the pump, click to the space in the Energy, and type work.
This will create energy stream name work for thepump as shown in
below Figure.

4. Once a pump has enough information, a green bar appears at the bottom
of the
window indicating that everything is “OK” (See above Figure).

Specifying the Pump Efficiency


Default efficiency for the pump is 75%. To change the efficiency, do the
following:
1. Click on the Design tab of the pump window.
2. Then click on Parameters.
3. In the Adiabatic Efficiency box on the parameters page, enter 10. The
units should be in per cent as shown in below Figure.
4. After the efficiency is entered the streams of the pumps should be
solved. Click on the Worksheet tab to view the results as shown in
below Figure.
Question: What is the outlet temperature of the water?

Saving
1. Go to the File menu.
2. Select Save As.
3. Give the HYSYS file the name Pump then press the OK button.
PROBLEM:
1. If the outlet temperature is 2000C, what is the efficiency of the pump?
2. A mixture of natural gas (C1, C2, C3, i-C4, n-C4, i-C5, n-C5, n-C6, C7+)
at 1000C and 1 bar is fed into a compressor that has only 30% efficiency.
The flow rate of the natural gas is 100 kgmol /h and its outlet pressure from
the compressor is 5 bar. Using Peng-Robinson equation of state as a fluid
package.
a) Determine the outlet temperature of the natural gas.
Name : Compressor, Feed : Natural Gas, Outlet : Comp_Out, Energy : Work
(NOTE: Add C7+ as hypo component, mol.wt=111: boiling pt=110 0C:
Property package-peng Robinson)
b) If the outlet temperature is 4000C, what is the efficiency of the
compressor?

3) A mixture of natural gas(methane, ethane and propane) at 25 0C and 20 bar


is fed into an expander that has only 30% efficiency. The flow rate of the
natural gas is 100 kgmol /h and its outlet pressure from the compressor is 5
bar. Using Peng-Robinson equation of state as a fluid package.
a) Determine the outlet temperature of the natural gas.
Property Package : Peng-Robinson

b) If the outlet temperature is -300C, what is the efficiency of the expander?

4) Hot water at 250°C and 1000 psig is used to heat a cold stream of water in
a shell and tube heat exchanger. The inlet temperature and pressure of the
cold stream is 25°C and 130 psig, respectively. The outlet temperatures of
the cold and hot streams are 150°C and 190°C, respectively. If the flow rate
of the hot stream is 100 kg/h.

a) Determine the flow rate of the cold stream passing through the
exchanger.
The pressure drops for the Tube and Shell sides, will be 0 kPa.
b) If the flow rate of the cold stream is 100 kg/h, determine the flow rate of
the hot stream passing through the exchanger. What is amount of heat
transferred from the hot stream to the cold stream?

5) A stream containing 15% ethane, 20% propane, 60% i-butane and 5% n-


butane at 500F and atmospheric pressure, and a flow rate of 100
lbmole/hr. This stream is to be compressed to 50 psia, and then cooled to
320F. The resulting vapor and liquid are to be separated as the two
product streams.
a) What are the flow rates and compositions of these two streams?
b) Stream: Top Bottom
Flow rate: ____________ _______________
Composition: Ethane: ____________ ________________
Propane: ___________ ________________
i-Butane: ___________ ________________
n-Butane: __________ ________________
