Question:

Repeat Example 5.4 for the following numbers of equilibrium stages (see Figure):

(a) M = 10, N = 10

(b) M = 15, N = 15

Plot dc3/bc3 as a function of M + N from 10 to 30 stages. In making the calculations, assume that state temperatures and total flow rates do not change from the results of Example 5.4. Discuss the effect of the number of stages on theseparation.
