 Ponchon-Savarit Method
(Enthalpy-composition diagram)
a) Takes into account latent heats, heats of mixing &
sensible heats.
b) No assumption of molal flow rates.
c) Graphical procedure combining enthalpy & material
balances.
d) Provides information on condenser & reboiler
duties.
The diagram at a given constant pressure is based on
reference states of liquid and temperature such as 273K.
Use enthalpy concentration data:-
The data that require for enthalpy concentration
diagram are:
1-Heat capacity of the liquid, Cp
2-Boiling temperature, Tb
3-Latent heats of vaporization, λ
4-Heat of solution, ∆Hmixing
The saturated liquid line in enthalpy h kJ/kg can be
obtained from the following :-
The saturated vapor line can be obtained from
the following equation below:-

x & y = mol or mass fractions of liquid & vapor.

T= boiling point of temperature
Tr = reference temperature
C p,L & C p,v = liquid & vapor heat capacity
∆Hmix = heat of solution at Tr ( neglected for ideal
system).
Ponchon Savarit method
• The difference in enthalpy between the streams
passing each other is constant, with the enthalpy of
this stream being Q’ = hD + Qc / D , where Q c is the
condenser duty in kJ/h.
