Abstract:

In this paper, the heating time and temperature distribution in the cyclohexane-ethanol vapor-liquid equilibrium system are investigated, and the influence of a thermal insulation cover has also been investigated. The experimental results show that the thermal insulation cover can shorten the heating time for the system to reach the vapor-liquid equilibrium, and reduce the temperature distribution gradient and the fractionation effect of the vapor phase in the distillation flask, thus, a more accurate phase diagram can be obtained.
