Equipments - Flow Split

Use the Flow Split to split the inlet stream into two outlet streams. Check First and/or Second Outlet Flow Given. Or specify the total flow to the first outlet stream or the flow of liquor, solids and gas to the first outlet stream.

Method&Equations

If the First Outlet Flow Given is checked (True) the flow in the second outlet is calculated as the difference between the inlet flow and the first outlet flow. The same occurs if the Second Outlet Flow Given is checked.

          Second Outlet Flow=Inlet Flow-First Outlet Flow

          First Outlet Flow=Inlet Flow-Second Outlet Flow

If both the First and Second Outlet Flow Given are checked the model acts as a reverse mixer: the inlet flow is the sum of the first and second outlet flows.

        Inlet Flow=First Outlet Flow + Second outlet Flow

In all cases the outlet's state and composition are set to the inlet state and composition.
