Azeotropic Systems
(1)
Azeotropes are formed by liquid mixtures exhibiting maximum or minimum boiling points, which represent, respectively, negative or positive deviations from Raoults’ law. If there is only one liquid phase, the mixture forms a homogeneous azeotrope; if more than one liquid phase are present, the azeotrope is heterogeneous.
Degrees of Freedom
The variables to describe the physical equilibrium of a system are classified as intensive variables, which are independent of the size of the system, and extensive variables, which depend on system size. Only a few of the variables are independent to determine the state of system. The number of the independent variables is called the degrees of freedom.
(1)
For a system with feed streams and extensive variables, the phase rule should be extended by an general analysis of degrees of freedom as follows in which V is the number of variables, E the number of independent equations. It should be pointed out that V does not count the thermodynamic functions which can be calculated from the intensive variables.

Flash Calculation
Introduction
The separation process by single equilibrium stage is one in which two phase in contact are brought to physical equilibrium and followed by phase separation. The calculations of single stage separation are made by combining material balance and energy balance with phase equilibria relations.

Azeotropic Systems
Heterogeneous azeotrope are always minimum boiling mixtures. The activity coefficients must be much greater than 1 to cause liquid phase split.
Isothermal Flash & Adiabatic Flash
In an isothermal flash, heating or cooling are necessary to keep TV at the specified value. In an adiabatic flash, the pressure is reduced adiabatically that TV will also reduce to provide the heat of vaporization.

Flash Calculations
Flash is a single-equilibrium-stage separation process with partial vaporization or condensation of a feed stream. A real flash process is always accompanied by temperature and pressure change and heat exchange. The isothermal and adiabatic flashes are two idealized situations discussed most commonly.

For a single equilibrium stage shown in the right figure, there are (CP +2) intensive variables to determine the phase equilibrium, and (C +P +4) additional variables (zi, TF, PF, F, Q, V, L) to describe the process state. And there should be independent equations for P molar normalizations, C(P -1) K-values, C component material balances and 1 energy balance.
