I'm looking at designing emergency venting for two different tanks, one for asphalt/bitumen storage and one for used motor oil storage. In order to design the venting I need the Latent Heat of Vaporization and Molecular Mass of Vapor for both liquids.
I scoured the internet and haven't come up with anything definitive. I did come across the Vetere Model for the Latent Heat of Vaporization of Pure Hydrocarbons = 4.1868*T *(9.08+4.36*log(T)+0.0068*T/M+(0.0009*T^2)/M) T = Boiling Point in Kelvin M = Molecular Mass of Liquid Not sure if this is accurate since asphalt and used motor oil are composed of innumerous types of hydrocarbons with great variation in boiling points and molecular weights.
I don't need exact numbers, just need to be reasonably accurate and conservative. Is there some kind of database or equation?
P.S., I have no access to any software that would do this analysis.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you
