Workshop 5
Enter the density, specific heat capacity, viscosity and the thermal
conductivity for the liquid and vapour phases at the given temperature.
As heat load is supplied, ensure that the heat load radio button is active
in the Input of Enthalpy box and enter the corresponding flow rate.
From the curves supplied, the temperatures for the enthalpies, heat

The method for evaluating the VLE for the mixture properties are set at
Ideal, but if required it may be changed to SRK. If you then examine the
startup input item, you will notice that the number of components has
been set to four. Save the dataset and run, then enter the appropriate
information in the table:
