Process mixing enthalpy worksheet calculator

Calculate total mass and outlet total enthalpy with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use total mass and outlet total enthalpy to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Examples

Examples

Try the starting example

Inlet streams [mass kg,specific enthalpy kJ/kg]
[[10,100],[20,50]]
Heat added to mixture (kJ)
100
Total mass (kg)
30
Outlet total enthalpy (kJ)
2100
Outlet specific enthalpy (kJ/kg)
70

Try another scenario

Inlet streams [mass kg,specific enthalpy kJ/kg]
[[10,100],[20,50]]
Heat added to mixture (kJ)
110.00000000000001
Total mass (kg)
30
Outlet total enthalpy (kJ)

Calculation method

Calculation method

Total mass (kg)

Sum inlet masses; no reaction or mass loss.

Outlet total enthalpy (kJ)

Sum inlet mass×specific enthalpy + heat added.

Outlet specific enthalpy (kJ/kg)

Outlet total enthalpy/total mass; no temperature or phase inferred.

Symbols and units
a
Inlet streams [mass kg,specific enthalpy kJ/kg]
b
Heat added to mixture (kJ)

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Stream masses, supplied enthalpies, heat exchange. Returns Energy balance and outlet enthalpy. All coefficients and observations are user supplied; results describe only the stated mathematical model. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification. Heat added to mixture (kJ): minimum None, maximum 1000000000000.0.
