DePriester Chart for Hydrocarbons

​
methane
propane
n-decane
pressure (psia)
30
temperature (°F)
140
This Demonstration applies a DePriester chart, a set of nomograms to find the vapor-liquid equilibrium ratio (the gas phase mole fraction divided by the liquid phase mole fraction, known as the
K
-value) for a series of hydrocarbons. Select one of three hydrocarbons: methane, propane or
n
-decane. Use sliders to change the pressure and temperature; a green line connects these two points. The green circle indicates where to read the
K
-value on the chart, which is also displayed above the chart. The
K
-values for other hydrocarbons can also be read from the chart.
