Step 1
Given:
The molar flow rate of the feed (propylene and propane) is given to us. We require the volume flow rate (in L/h) of the feed.
To calculate the volumetric flow rate, we need two quantities, the mass flow rate and the density of the substance, since the volume flow rate is given as follows:
So, we need to calculate the density and the mass flow rate for both components first.

The inner core of the cylinder is filled with a porous material. The flow in this porous region is slow and assumed to be a plug-type flow such that the velocity is constant and everywhere the same inside the porous region. Denote this velocity by Uo. The flow in the open (non-porous) region is steady, Newtonian, incompressible and axisymmetric. It will be assumed that only the axial (x) component of the velocity is non-zero.
