Thank you for your previous help.
Part 1
Is this equation correct?
Flash Ratio =
HL(into tank) - HL(of tank)
___________________________
HV(of tank) - HL(of tank)
HL = Enthalpy of sat.liquid
HV = Enthalpy of sat.vapor
into tank = flow of Oxygen liquid into tank
of tank = conditions of liquid oxygen already in tank.
Finding this ratio would give me the flash per hour if I times by the flow rate?
Part 2
We have a pump @ 85 KW and 21500 Sm3/hr flow rate.
I can find the enthalpy of the liquid before pump.
To find enthalpy of liquid after pump do I just do the following?
Convert power into Kal/hr = 73100 Kcal/hr
and then divide by enthalpy of liquid before pump (45 Kcal/Sm3) to get about 3.4 Kcal/Sm3
and finally add this number (3.4) to the "enthalpy of liquid before pump". to get enthalpy of liquid after pump? (48.5 Kcal/Sm3).
After this I can plug in the numbers using the ratio above to calculate % flash?
I was wondering I have missed anything
Have I confused everyone?
Your response would be appreciated
