PHASE EQUILIBRIA

Ternary Systems

• Types: (Liquid –Vapor) ternary systems (Liquid – Solid ) ternary systems

Section 12

Today’s Topic :• The Three component system , L-V type– Degree of freedom analysis– How to determine compositions ?– The phase diagram– Isothermal section– Dew and bubble point calculations

Ternary Systems

• Applications of ternary systems:1. Steel Industry2. Refractories3. Ceramics4. Distillation5. Liquid - Liquid Extraction6. Leaching7. Tea !!!

Ternary Systems

• Degree of Freedom Analysis:• F = C – P + 2 – r• = 3 – P + 2 -1 [ Isobaric diagrams]• F = 4 - P

Ternary Systems

• Degree of Freedom Analysis:• Fmax = 3

• These 3 independent variables are : T , x1 , x2

Three component system

• Method of representation :• Use the Composition triangle

Three component system

Three component system

1 – Any vertex represent a one component system.

Three component system

2 – Any side represent a two component system

Three component system

3 – Any point inside the triangle represent a ternary system

4 – Any parallel line to a side of the triangle , represents a locus of constant percentage of the third component

In this figure:• We have a line parallel to the side BC• Then , it contains a fixed percentage of A ( 30% ) • This line is a locus for all of the mixtures containing 30 % A

In this figure:• We have a line parallel to the side AB• Then , it contains a fixed percentage of C ( 30% ) • This line is a locus for all of the mixtures containing 30 % C

Three component system

5 – Any point inside the triangle can be located knowing two compositions only.

Locate the mixture of the following composition : 30% A & 50 % B

Locate the mixture of the following composition : 30% A & 50 % B

Locate the mixture of the following composition : 30% A & 50 % B
