Internal Column Balances*
External column balances allow the calculation
of only a few of the process variables (B, D, QC,QR)
Column design, however, requires knowledge of
additional parameters, e.g., number of stages,
optimum feed location (stage), column diameter, etc
Therefore, it becomes necessary to write down and
solve the internal column balances as well
For convenience, we will separate the column intothree sections:
A. The enriching section, which includes the colum
stages above the feed and the condenser.
B. The stripping section, which includes the column
stages below the feed and the reboiler.
C. The feed stage
We will then write the internal balances around
each stage for all three sections* We restrict our discussion to binary mixtures

Enriching Section: Stage 1
(By convention, stage 1 is the topmost stage)
Definitions
V1, L1: vapour and liquid streams leaving stage 1
(They are considered to be at thermo. equilibrium) V2 : vapour stream rising from stage 2
Lo : reflux stream (entering stage 1)
D: distillate
Qc: Heat removed in the condenser

Degrees of freedom analysis
Known design variables:
(These will be given in the design problem, or
will be calculated from the external balances)
Distillate flow rate (D)
Reflux ratio (Lo/D); hence, V1 is also known Mole fraction: xD (=y1=xLo; why?)
Amount of heat removed in the condenser (Qc)
Also, hD, HV1, hLo (not actual design variables!!)
Unknown variables:
L1, V2 Mole fractions: y2, x1(Also unknown: H2, h1)
Total: 6 => We need 6 independent equations

Mass and energy balances
Mass balances:
DLV 12 +=Overall: (1)
Most volatile component: (2)D1122 DxxLyV +=
Equilibrium relationship: x1=x1(y1, P) (4)
Energy balance: D11C22 DhhLQHV +=+ (3)
Finally, the molar enthalpies are calculated from:

Where, is the latent heat of vaporisation for
component i at Tref .

Enriching Section: Stage j
For the general case of stage j the same procedure
must be followed (also notice the symmetry!).

Approach #1: Use of h vs. x,y data
Mass balances:

Most volatile component: (2)Djj1j1j DxxLyV +=++
Equilibrium relationship: xj=xj(yj, P) (4)
Energy balance: DjjC1j1j DhhLQHV +=+++ (3)
The enthalpies are calculated from:

Alternative way: Tj+1 as a direct unknown
Mass balances:
DLV j1j +=+Overall: (1)
Most volatile component: (2)Djj1j1j DxxLyV +=++
Equilibrium relationship: xj=xj(yj, P) (4)
Tj+1= Tj+1(yj+1, P) (4)
Energy balance: DjjC1j1j DhhLQHV +=+++ (3)
Finally, the enthalpies are calculated from:
=
=C
1irefji,PLj,ij )TT(Cxh
=
+++ +=C
1iiref1ji,PV1j,i1j ])TT(C[yH

Where, i is the latent heat of vaporisation
of component i at Tref

Graphical representation
Analytical equations of the type: Tj+1=Tj+1(yj+1, P(e.g., polynomial fit to graphical data)
Indirect relations:
Note that V j+1 is a saturated vapour =>Tj+1 =Tj+1,dp
