Describe the "Bauschinger Effect" on the stress strain behaviour of steel
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The Bauschinger effect is the directionally determined change in the elasticity limit of a metal or alloy after primary plastic deformation. If you first deform a metal in one direction so that it is plastically deformed and then deform it in the opposite direction, the elastic limit in the opposite direction is lower.

From the point of view of the dislocation mechanism of plastic deformation, the Bauschinger effect indicates that during repeated deformation, it is easier for dislocations blocked in front of obstacles to move in the direction opposite to their movement during preliminary plastic deformation.

Refrigerant-134a is throttled from the saturated liquid state at 800 kPa to a pressure of 140 kPa. Determine the temperature dro
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The temperature drop is 61.1 °C

The final specific volume of the refrigerant is 1.236 m^3/kg

Explanation:

Initial pressure of refrigerant = 800 kPa = 800/100 = 8 bar

Final pressure of refrigerant = 140 kPa = 140/100 = 1.4 bar

From steam table

At 8 bar, initial saturated temperature is 170.4 °C

At 1.4 bar, final saturated temperature is 109.3 °C

Temperature drop = initial saturated temperature - final saturated temperature = 170.4 - 109.3 = 61.1 °C

Also, from steam table

At 1.4 bar, specific volume is 1.236 m^3/kg

Final specific volume of the refrigerant is 1.236 m^3/kg

A steam reformer operating at 650C and 1 atm uses propane as fuel for hydrogen production. At the given operating conditions, th
dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) for shifting reactions,

Kps =  ph2 pco2/pcoph20

=[h2] [co2]/[co] [h2o]

h2 + co2 + h2O + co + c3H8 = 1

it implies that

H2 + 0.09 + H2O + 0.08 + 0.05 = 1

solving the system of equation yields

H2 = 0.5308,

H2O = 0.2942

B)  according to Le chatelain's principle for a slightly exothermic reaction, an increase in temperature favors the reverse reaction producing less hydrogen. As a result, concentration of hydrogen in the reformation decreases with an increasing temperature.

c) to calculate the maximum hydrogen yield , both reaction must be complete

C3H8 + 3H2O ⇒ 3CO + 7H2( REFORMING)

CO + H2O ⇒ CO2 + H2 ( SHIFTING)

C3H8 + 6H2O ⇒ 3CO2 + 10 H2 ( OVER ALL)

SO,

Maximum hydrogen yield

= 10mol h2/3 molco2 + 10molh2

= 0.77

⇒ 77%
