According to Table A1 in the appendix, the typical steady state operating conditions are:

Composition

  • Top: 96 wt% methanol
  • Bottoms: 0.5 wt % methanol
  • Feed: 46.5 wt % methanol

Flow Rates

  • Top product: 1.18 lb/min
  • Top reflux: 1.95 lb/min
  • Bottoms: 1.27 lb/min
  • Steam: 1.71 lb/min
  • Feed: 2.45 lb/min

Note: The paper mentions the transfer functions for feed as a disturbance on page 1714:

  • $G_{BF}$ - transfer function, relating bottoms composition to feed flow rate
  • $G_{DF}$ - transfer function, relating overhead composition to feed flow rate

But I don't see the actual transfer functions in the paper? Other papers citing this paper has the TFs but where did they get them?
