A constant-head permeability test gives the following information: - Water flows horizontally through the soil sample. - The hei
ght of the reservoir supply source is 2 m above the elevation of the outlet reservoir. - The soil sample length in the direction of flow is 200 mm. - The cross-sectional area of the soil sample is 1,950 mm2. - The measured volume of flow at steady state is 500 ml in 10 minutes. a) Sketch the arrangement of the set up for this type of measurement. b) Calculate the hydraulic conductivity. c) Which is the probable tested soil

Explanation:
A clear details for the question is also attached.
(b) The P,V and T for state 1,2 and 3
P =1 bar Ti = 300 K and Vi from ideal gas Vi=
10
24.9x10 m
=
P-5 bar
Due to step 12 is isothermal: T1 = T2= 300 K and
VVi24.9 x 10x-4.9 x 10-3 *
The values at 3 calclated by Uing step 3l Adiabatic process
B-P ()
Since step 23 is Isochoric: Va =Vs= 4.99 m* and 7=
14
Ps-1x(4.99 x 103
P-1x(29x 10)
9.49 barr
And Ts =Ta E)- 300(
569.5 K

(c) For step 12: Isothermal, Since AT = 0 then AH12 = AU12 = 0 and
Work done for Isotermal process define as
8.314 x 300 In =4014.26
Wi2= RTi ln
mol
And fromn first law of thermodynamic
AU12= W12 +Q12
Q12-W12 = -4014.26
Mol
F'or step 23 Isochoric: AV = 0 Since volume change is zero W23= 0 and
Alls = Cp(L3-12)=5 x 8.311 (569.5 - 300) = 7812.18-
AU23= C (13-72) =5 x 8.314 (569.3 - 300) = 5601.53
Inol
Now from first law of thermodynamic the Q23
AU2s = Q23= 5601.55
Mol
For step 3-1 Adiabatic: Since in this process no heat transfer occur Q31= 0
and
AH
C,(T -Ts)=x 8.314 (300- 569.5)= -7842.18
mol
AU=C, (T¡-T)= x 8.314 (300
-5601.55
569.5)
mol
Now from first law of thermodynamie the Ws1

AUs¡ = Ws¡ = -5601.55
