relies on The Equations of State (EOS) for the calculation of Z factors. The equation that we

Progress Report III:
In Module A, the objective was to complete a program to calculate Z factors for a
compositional simulation. The compositionally based calculation of fluid volumetric behavior
relies on The Equations of State (EOS) for the calculation of Z factors. The equation that we
implemented for the completion of Module A was Peng- Robinson Equation of State. That
was used to illustrate this powerful fluid behavior modeling approach.
In Module B, the objective was to build upon Module A and the implementation of the
Rachford-Rice Equation for Binary Mixtures. (The calculation of alpha g and alpha l).We also
applied the Peng Robinson (EOS) to improve (Ki) values, which is simply the volatility ratio.
The easiest the part of the coding was obtaining the values of A, B, and Z parameters
because we already had the code from Module A. That was the only easy task that we
encountered. To be honest, Module B was challenging due the problem we were having with
a writing a code that will do an iteration for all the GUF values to equal to each other
depending the K values.
Now, we are on to Module C which is in laymans terms a more complicated/ bigger
version of what we did in Module C. In this module, we use all the thermodynamic tools
given to use throughout the semester for the prediction of liquid and vapor co-existence in
equilibrium and the composition of the resulting phases. As I mentioned before, this module
is an extension of Module B by expanding the thermodynamic calculations of the previous
module to multi-component mixtures. These calculations will be used in the actual design of
the surface production facility, which will be due in two weeks. Some of the difficulties that
we encountered were finding a reasonable time for all of us to meet, especially this time of
the semester. Also, programming wide, we had difficulties in figuring out how to incorporate
our code to function with Mix 1 due to the large number of components.

When N = 1, possible 0.855 of water removable and we are targeting to remove

0.8857 of water so we need to obtain values of N that a greater than 1.
We use GPSA Fig. 20-70 when N = 1.5
