A pressure gage at the inlet to a gas compressor indicates that the gage pressure is 40.0 kPa. Atmospheric pressure is 1.01 bar.

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Given

inlet Pga =40kpa = 40000pa

Patm=1.01bar = 1.01 x 100000pa =101000pa

exit Pab= 6.5 (inlet Pab)

But generally, Pab = Patm + Pga

1. the absolute pressure of the gas at the inlet, inlet Pab?

inlet Pab = Patm + inlet Pga

= 101000pa + 40000pa = 141kpa

the absolute pressure of the gas at the inlet, inlet Pab = 141kpa

2. the gage pressure of the gas at the exit? exit Pga?

exit Pab = Patm + exit Pga

exit Pga = exit Pab - Patm

= (6.5 x 141kpa) - 101kpa

= 815.5kpa

the gage pressure of the gas at the exit exit Pga=815.5kpa

A block of ice weighing 20 lb is taken from the freezer where it was stored at -15"F. How many Btu of heat will be required to c

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Heat required =7126.58 Btu.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass m=20 lb

We know that

1 lb =0.45 kg

So 20 lb=9 kg

m=9 kg

Ice at -15° F and we have to covert it at 200° F.

First ice will take sensible heat at up to 32 F then it will take latent heat at constant temperature and temperature will remain 32 F.After that it will convert in water and water will take sensible heat and reach at 200 F.

We know that

Specific heat for ice $C_p=2.03\ KJ/kg.K$
