RE: Reforming exchangers

Hi Ivan,
I am not sure if I understand your question properly but I would assume you are looking for the vapour fraction within the exchanger.  With the phase transfer, I would try to model this in Aspen to obtain the heat release curve (HCurve) which would be dependant on the composition of the streams and the operating conditions (and duty) of the exchanger.  
I hope this helps.
