Dew Point Calculation

This document discusses the calculation of dew points from gas composition data. It provides formulas using partial pressures of water, sulfur dioxide, and hydrochloric acid to calculate the sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and water dew points respectively. As an example, with 12% water and 0.02% sulfur dioxide, the sulfuric acid dew point is calculated to be ###°C using the Pierce formula. The hydrochloric acid and water dew points are also calculated using the provided formulas and partial pressures.

1. Introduction

Correlations for dew points can be derived from Vapor - Liquid Equilibrium ( VLE ) data.

For engineering purpose, dew points are calculated using practical formulas, which give reasonably accurate results.

3. Calculation

Sulfuric Acid Dew Point * Using formula by Pierce, originally proposed by Verhoff and Banchero

T = 1000 / ( 1.7846 + 0.0267 log10 P1 - 0.1031 log10 P2 + 0.0329 log10 P1 log10 P2 ) - 273.15

= ### ℃

Where, P1 Partial pressure of H2O #VALUE! bar.a


P2 Partial pressure of SO3 #VALUE! bar.a

Where, P2 = SO2 Partial Pressure x Conversion Rate, SO2 - > SO3, % / 100
= #VALUE! x 2 / 100

Hydrochloric Acid Dew Point * Using formula by Kiang and Yen Hsiung

T = 1000 / ( 3.7368 - 0.1591 ln P1 - 0.0326 ln P2 + 0.0027 ln P1 ln P2 ) - 273.15

= ### ℃

Where, P1 Partial pressure of H2O #VALUE! mmHg


P2 Partial pressure of HCl #VALUE! mmHg

Water Dew Point * Saturation temperature correspoding to partial pressure of H2O

T = ### ℃ at #VALUE! kg/cm2.a
