A piston-cylinder assembly contains 0.5 lb of water. The water expands from an initial state where p1 = 40 lbf/in.2 and T1 = 300

o F to a final state where p2 = 14.7 lbf/in.2 During the process, the pressure and specific volume are related by the polytropic process pv 1.2 = constant. Determine the energy transfer by work, in Btu.

Answer:

W = 31.393 Btu

Explanation:

given data

piston-cylinder assembly contains water = 0.5 lb

p1 = 40 lbf/in² = 40 × 144 lbf/ft²

T1 = 300° F

p2 = 14.7 lbf/in² = 14.7  × 144 lbf/ft²

pv 1.2 = constant.

solution

we use here superheated table A 4E  to get value for p1 = 40 and t = 300

v1 = 11.04 ft³/lbm

so we know

P_2 \times V_2^{1.2} = P_1 \times V_1^{1.2}    ,...............1

14.7 \times V_2^{1.2} = 40 \times (11.04)^{1.2}

solve it we get

v2 = 25.425 ft³/lbm

and here

W = (\frac{P_1V_1 - P_2V_2}{n-1}) m   ...............2

put here value we get

W = (\frac{40\times 144\times (11.04) -14.7 \times 144\times (25.425) }{1.2-1})0.5  

solve it we get

W = 31.393 Btu

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

<em>Cout = 11mg/L</em>

Explanation:

Assume Steady State and CSTR, this means Qin = Qout

Given: Qin = 4 000m3/day

Cin = 25mg/L

V = 20 000m3

k = 0.25/day

Find: Cout = ?

outStarting from the mass balance equation for steady state 0 = QCin - QCout - kCoutV

manipulate the equation to get:

\(Cout=Cin(Q/Q+kV)\)  

<em>Then simple plug in your givens: </em>

<em>Cout = (25mg/L)((4000m3/day)/(4000m3/day + 0.25/day(20000m3)) </em>

<em>Cout = 11mg/L</em>
