Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium (VLE) Data Summary View: Ternary Mixtures

Purposes & Features:

Summarize VLE Data in one table: VLE data are reported in a variety of forms ( PTxy, PTx, Txy). All VLE data types are shown in a single table accessed through this node (See Figure).

Identify PTx'x"y'y" Data Sets: PTx'x"y'y" data are highlighted in the table for easy identification (See Below). After evaluation for the pure components, data sets at conditions that are supercritical for any component are highlighted in yellow.

Plotting: The data can be plotted as a ternary diagram. Liquid-gas tie lines are shown in green.

VLE data summary view screen for example ternary mixture methane + ethane + nitrogen, accessed through end node Experimental and predicted data\VLE data summary view, showing blue and yellow highlights for PTx'x''y'y'' and supercritical sets, respectively. Also present is a ternary phase diagram (accessed from the VLE data summary view screen with the Plot button) with binodal and tie line data displayed.
