Partial pressure calculation
Partial pressure calculation
(OP)
Hi!
I a have hydrocarbon gas mixture whose total pressure is Pt(measured by gage)over 40Barg. Is it correct for computing the partial pressure of components by using this formula: Pi(partial pressure of one component), Yi(molar fraction)
Pi= Yi * Pt
Thanks

When applying Dalton's law, use absolute pressures.

Partial pressures for real gases are estimated using compressibility factors as, for example, in:
