    General

    This component works analogously to component 52 (selective splitter, with filter). However, as there are about 100 different possible substances in the case of the universal fluid, here the user will have to specify the name of the respective substance and the respective degree of separation.  The possible number of substances to be separated is limited to 10.

    Note that only the substances can be separated that are available in the inlet stream. As certain libraries integrate substances in a different way, you have to be aware of the properties of the different libraries. This applies to the following substances:

    It is possible to make a conversion between these substances using the components 100/101 (fluid converter/reconverter) and 105 (library selector).

     

    In this component , a mode FM=“phase separation“ has been implemented where a separation between liquid and gaseous fractions is affected. The liquid fractions are output at Outlet 3 and the gaseous fractions at Outlet 2.
    However, the phase separation is only possible when using the REFPROP library. Moreover, only one entry in the universal fluid is allowed.

    The following should be noted with the separator for universal fluid:

    If there is a component 105 (library selector) on an outlet stream, there will be an enthalpy difference due to the different property table that has to be considered in the energy balance. Unfortunately, in the calculation of this table difference the interaction energy was included as well. This was corrected. This results in a change of the outlet temperature, which is correct, however. If it would be possible to perform the separation adiabatic, the elimination of the interaction energy would cause a temperature change. Of course, the resulting temperature must be independent of the selected property libraries. The example file component_109.ebs was extended to illustrate this behaviour.

    The heating values of the outlet streams were simply set to the value of the input stream.

    Currently, the calorific value is calculated from the composition. Any correction will be taken into account on line 2.

    If there is a heating value correction, it is considered on stream 2.

    FM

    Mass flow calculation

    =2: M1 or M3 given
    =3: M1 or M2 given
    =-1: M3 and composition given from outside
    =4: phase separation: M1 given, Pin 2: gaseous fraction, Pin3: liquid fraction

    FSPECH

    Handling of energy balance

    =0: T3=T1, T2 from energy balance
    =1: T1=T2, T3 from energy balance
    =2: T3=T2=T1 without energy balance consideration -  result value DQ will not be zero
    =-1: All tempertures given externally - result value DQ will not be zero
    Note: under normal circumstances outlet temperatures will be equal for all streams. But in case different thermal property sets are used for different outlet streams, or real gas properties are used, an enthalpy change can occur. The energy balance difference caused by the setting that all streams are at equal temperature is reported as result variable DQ.
