Problem Description:
A crude unit is designed to process 21,000 tons per day of 50%
Arabian heavy crude and 50% Arabian light crude. The desired
products are shown in the next slide, with specifications in Table 1.
250oC steam (assumed to be saturated) is available for stripping.
The condenser is to operate at 123oC and 0.97 Kg/cm2G.
An initial simulation model was constructed as shown in the above
slide. ASTM D86 95% temperatures were used for HSR, Kerosene
and LGO. The overflash (0.03) was set as a specification. A partial
condenser was used to meet the desired temperature of 123oC.
