Faculty of Chemical Engineering CPE 633 - Process Engineering II Tutorial

The document provides three questions related to calculating minimum hot and cold utility requirements and the location of the pinch point for different process streams. Question 1 provides stream data and asks to calculate these values given a ΔTmin of 0°C. Question 2 provides a flowsheet of a low-temperature distillation process and asks to calculate the same values assuming ΔTmin of 5°C and 10°C, and discuss the results. Question 3 provides another set of stream data and asks to calculate the values using the problem table algorithm with a ΔTmin of 13°C.
