Hi All,
I am required to calculate the reduction in volume of liquid hydrocarbons upon mixing.
The detail of the problem is as follows: I have three stream: naphtha, distillate and gas oil.These ssreams can be routed to different tanks.I did a quick simulation in HYSYS and found that there is actually some loss in volume upon mixing these streams. My problem is how do I know how much volume reduction will take place upon mixing of these streams, assuming all other conditions such as pressure and temperature remain same.Is there any database/procedure for the same??(In addition to doing some thermodynamic calculcation involving excess property which is volume in this case or using a simulator like HYSYS.)
Thanks,
Sav
