Figure 15-3 indicates the situation as it would be measured experimentally. The nonphysical loop ebfcein Figure 15-2A has been replaced
with the tie-line ee. Figure 15-3B shows the elimination of the
corresponding loop ebfce. If an equation of state could be devised that
would exactly reproduce isotherm aeed on Figure 15-3A, the calculated
chemical potentials of all states along tie-Iine ee would be identical.
Toe point e to the left on Figure l5-3A is the position of the bubble
point at the temperature of the isotherm, and the point e to the right is the
position of the dew point. If the above analysis were performed at
various temperatures below the critica} temperature, the phase envelope
would be defined. Figure 15-4 shows the position of the phase envelope
along with three isotherms.

Remember that chemical potential for the liquid must equal chemical
potential for the gas at equilibrium. For a pure substance this means that
at any point along the vapor pressure line, the chemical potential of the
liquid must equal the chemical potential of the gas. Thus Equation 15-3
shows that the fugacity of the liquid must equal the fugacity of the gas at

That is, as pressure approaches zero the fluid approaches ideal behavior
and the fugacity of a component approaches the parta! pressure of that
component.
Remember that the chemical potential, Gj, for a component of a
mixture at equilibrium must be the same in both the gas and the liquid.
Thus Equation 15-18 shows that at equilibrium the fugacities of a
component must be equal in both the gas and the liquid. So gas-Iiqud
equilibra can be calculated under the condition that

for ali components j. This is analogous to the development of the
equations for ideal solutions, early in Chapter 12, in which the partial
pressure of the Iiquid (Dalton's equation) was set equal to the partial
pressure of the gas (Raoult's equation).

Equations 15-26 through 15-28 are written twice: once far values of z,
b, and aT of the gas and again for va1ues of z, b, and ay of the liquid.
Toe procedure far calculating gas-liquid equilibria at given temperature and pressure is as follows.
Values of aTj and bj for each component of the mixture are obtained
with Equations 15-9 through 15-12 from a knowledge of the critica}
properties and acentric factors of the pure components.
A first trial set of K-factors is obtained. For instance, the K-factor
equation given in Appendix B can be applied to get the first trial set of Kfactors. These are used in a gas-Iiquid equilibria calculation, as described
in Chapter 12, to determine the compositions of the gas and liquid. Toe
remaining equations are solved twice, once for the liquid and once far the
gas.
Values of aT and b are calculated from Equations 4-38 and 4-40 with
the compositions determined above. When the composition of the liquid
is used, the values are aTL and bL. When the composition of the gas is
used, tbe values are aTg and bg. Values of binary interaction coefficients,
6ij, can be included in Equation 4-40 if they are known. If unknown, the
values of 6ij can be set equal to zero. Values of A and B far the Iiquid, AL
and BL, are calculated with Equations 15-15 and 15-16 using aTL and
bL. Wben aTg and bg are used in Equations 15-15 and 15-16, Ag and B8
result.
Also, B\ and A'i must be calculated for each componentj. B'jL results
when bi. is used in Equation 15-27, and B 'jg results when b8 is used. A'iL
and A'jg result similarly from Equation 15-28.
The smallest root of Equation 15-14 is zL when AL and BL are used.
The largest root of Equation 15-14 is Zg when Ag and Bg are used.
Equation 15-26 is solved for the fugacity coefficients of the components of the liquid, <!>Lj, using values of AL, BL, zL, A'jL, and B'jL
Values of q>g result when the corresponding gas coefficients and z-factor
are used in Equation 15-26.

Equilibrium is obtained and the calculation is complete when ali
(15-20)
There are as many Equations 15-20 as there are components. All
these equations cannot be satisfied simultaneously. Thus sorne sort of
error function based on Equation 15-20 must be devised, One approach
is4
(15-29)
where a solution is obtained when the Euclidean norrn of the Ei
(15-30)
is less than sorne selected tolerance.
Another error function used in converging on a correct solution by a
rnethod of successive substitution involves K-factors. Toe Ki for the
mixture are determined frorn the fugacity coefficients with Equation
15-23. Toen
(15-31)
where K{ are the K-factors just calculated and the K/ are the trial values
of K-factors.
Convergence on a correct solution is obtained when the sum of the
error functions is less than sorne selected tolerance. If the sum of the
error functions is greater than the tolerance, the K{ are used as new trial
values of Ki, and the process is repeated.
