    Vertical Separator Sizing

    Uploaded by

    Syed Waqas Haider
    This document provides inputs and calculations for sizing a vertical separator. It lists input parameters like gas and liquid flow rates, densities, temperature, and pressure. It then calculates the separator diameter, seam-to-seam length, slenderness ratio, height, and liquid and gas capacities based on these inputs using formulas from a reference book. The drag coefficient is also iteratively calculated.
