 Ratio of the density () of the substance to the
density of a reference (ref) substance at a specific
condition:

Flow rate
The rate at which a material is transported through a process line
Can be expressed as :
 (mass/time)
 mass flow rate, m
 volumetric flow rate, V (volume/time)
• The density of a fluid can be used to convert a known volumetric flow rate of a
process stream to the mass flow rate of that stream or vice versa.
  m / V  m / V
The mass flow rates of process streams must be known for many process
calculations, but it is frequently more convenient to measure volumetric flow
rates than mass flow rate.
Therefore, the density is used to convert volume flow rate to mass flow rate.
Flow meter
Device mounted in a process line that provides a
continuous reading of the flow rate in the line.
Two commonly used flow meter:
a) Rotameter
b) Orifice meter
Atomic weight of an element
Molecular weight of compound
Mass of an atom relative to carbon
isotope 12C having a mass of exactly 12
Sum of the atomic weights of atoms that
constitute a molecule of the compound
Moles= Mass / Molecular Weight

M
Unit for moles are g-mole, kmol,lb-mole ( g-mole is same as mol {SI unit} )
• If the molecular weight of a substance is M, then there are M
kg/kmol, M g/mol, and M lbm/lb-mole of this substance.
• The molecular weight may thus be used as a conversion factor
that relates the mass and the number of moles of a quantity
of the substance.

• Process streams consist of mixtures of liquids or gases, or solutions of one
or more solutes in a liquid solvents.
• The following terms may be used to define the composition of a mixture
of substances, including a species A.
• Mass fraction: xA= mass of A / total mass
Unit: kg A/kg total; g A/g total; lbm A/lbm total
UNIT must be the SAME!
• Mole fraction: yA= moles of A/ total moles
Unit: kmol A/kmol total; lb-moles A/lb-mole total
• The mass percent of A is 100xA and the mole percent of A is 100yA
HOW to Convert Mass Fractions to Moles Fractions
1. Assuming as a basis of calculation a mass of
the mixture (e.g. 100 kg or 100 lbm)
2. using the known mass fractions to calculate
the mass of each component in the basis
quantity, and converting these masses to
moles.
3. taking the ratio of the moles of each
component to the total number of moles

• The average molecular weight (or mean molecular weight) of a mixture,
(kg/kmol, lbm/lb-mole, etc.), is the ratio of the mass of a sample of the
mixture (mt) to the number of moles of all species (nt) in the sample.

• A pressure is the ratio of a force to the area on which the force acts (P= F/A).
• Pressure units: dynes/cm2, lbf/in2 or psi, (N/m2 is called a Pascal (Pa)
SI unit)
• The fluid pressure may be defined as the ratio F/A, where F is the minimum
force that would have to be exerted on a frictionless plug in the hole to keep
the fluid from emerging.

• Hydrostatic pressure of the fluid- the pressure P of the fluid at the base of
the column
P = Po + ρgh
• Head pressure- the height of a hypothetical column of the fluid that would
exert the given pressure at its base if the pressure at the top were zero.
• The equivalence between a pressure P (force/area) and the corresponding
head Ph (height of a fluid) is given by:
P (force/area) = ρ fluid g Ph (head of fluid)
•
Relationship between absolute pressure and gauge pressure is:
Pabsolute = Pgauge + Patmosphere
•
The atmosphere pressure can be thought of as the pressure at the base of a
column of fluid (air) located at the point measurement (e.g. at sea level)
•
A typical value of the atmospheric pressure at sea level, 760.0 mm Hg, has been
designated as a standard pressure of 1 atmosphere.
•
The fluid pressure referred to so far are all absolute pressures, in that a pressure of
zero corresponds to a perfect vacuum.
•
Many pressure-measuring devices give the gauge pressure of a fluid, or the
pressure relative to atmospheric pressure.
Pressure below the surface of a fluid
What is the pressure 30.0 m below the surface of a lake? Atmospheric
pressure (the pressure at the surface) is 10.4 m H20, and the density of
water is 1000.0 kg/m3. Assume that g is 9.807 m/s2.
Solution:
Ph = Po + ρgh

Temperature of a substance in a particular state of aggregation (solid, liquid, or
gas) is a measure of the average kinetic energy possessed by the substance
molecules.
Some temperature measuring devices based on substance properties include
electrical resistance of a conductor (resistance thermometer), voltage at the
junction of two similar metals (thermocouple), spectra of emitted radiation
(pyrometer), and volume of a fixed mass of fluid (thermometer).
The following relationship may be used to convert a temperature expressed in one
defined scale unit to its equivalent in another;
