Nitrogen gas flows through a long, constant-diameter adiabatic pipe. It enters at 100 psia and 120°F and leaves at 50 psia and 7

0°F. Calculate the velocity of the nitrogen at the pipe’s inlet and outlet. The specific heat of nitrogen at the room temperature is cP = 0.248 Btu/lbm·R.

Answer:

Velocity at inlet (V1) = 515.12 ft/s

Velocity at outlet (V2) = 941.43 ft/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Cp = 0.248 Btu/lbm·R.

T1 = 120 °F = 120 + 460 Rankine

= 580 °R

T2 = 70 °F = 70 + 460 R = 530 °R

P1 = 100 psia

P2 = 50 psia

From energy balance equation;

E_in - E_out = ΔEsyst

ΔEsyst = 0.

Thus, E_in = E_out

So,

M'[h1 + V1²/2] = M'[h2 + V2²/2]

M' will cancel out and we have;

[h1 + V1²/2] = [h2 + V2²/2]

V1²/2 - V2²/2 = h2 - h1 - - - - - (eq 1)

Now, h2 - h1 can be expressed as Cp(T2 - T1)

So, V1²/2 - V2²/2 = Cp(T2 - T1)

Also, in ideal gas, we know that;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Making V the subject to obtain;

(P1•V1•T2)/(P2•T1) = V2

Putting this for V2 in eq (1), we obtain;

V1²/2 - [(P1•V1•T2)/(P2•T1)]²/2 = Cp(T2 - T1)

Multiply through by 2;

V1² - [(P1•V1•T2)/(P2•T1)]² = 2Cp(T2 - T1)

Lets make V1 the subject;

V1² - V1²[(P1•T2)/(P2•T1)]² = 2Cp(T2 - T1)

V1²[1 - [(P1•T2)/(P2•T1)]²] = 2Cp(T2 - T1)

V1² = 2Cp(T2 - T1)/[1 - [(P1•T2)/(P2•T1)]²]

V1 = √[2•0.248(70 - 120)/[1 - [(100•530)/(50•580)]²]•(25037ft²/lb²/Btu/lbm·R)]

I used the °F for the numerator temperature while I used °R for the denominator temperature so as for the units to cancel out properly.

V1 = √[-24.8)/[1 - 3.34)]•25037]

V1 = √[-24.8)/-2.34)]•25037]

V1 = √[(24.8/2.34)•25037]

V1 =√265349.4017094017

V1 = 515.12 ft/s

Now, to find V2, we recall that,

(P1•V1•T2)/(P2•T1) = V2

We will use the rankine value of temperature.

Thus;

V2 = (100•515.12•530)/(50•580)

= 27301360/29000 = 941.43 ft/s

Answer:

V_{1} =515feet/seconds

V_{2} =941.21feet/seconds

Explanation:

We can use balance energy expression.

E_{in} -E_{out} =ΔE_{system}

we have to combine ideal gas and mass balance, so that m_{1} and m_{2} are equal.

m_{1} =m_{2}

therefore

\frac{A_{1} V_{1} }{v_{1} }  =\frac{A_{2} V_{2} }{v_{2} }

make V_{2} the subject of the formula

V_{2} =\frac{A_{1} v_{2} }{A_{2}v_{1}  } (V_{1} )

substitute V_{2} into the energy balance equation

V_{1} =[\frac{2c_{p}(T_{2}-T_{1} )  }{1-(\frac{T_{2}P_{1}  }{T_{1}P_{2}  } )^{2} } ]^{\frac{1}{2} }

now we can substitute the values

V_{1} =[\frac{2*0.248(70-120)}{1-(\frac{530*100}{580*50} )^{2} } ]^{\frac{1}{2} }

V_{1} =515ft/s

Now to find Velocity:

V_{2} =\frac{T_{2} P_{1} }{T_{1}P_{2}  } (V_{1} )

substitute the values

V_{2} =\frac{530*100}{580*50} (515)\\V_{2} =\frac{53000}{29000} (515)\\V_{2} =941.21feet/seconds

egoroff_w [7]

If both the ram air input and drain hole of the pitot system become blocked, the indicated airspeed will: a) increase during a climb.

<h3>What is a ram air input?</h3>

A ram air input can be defined as an air intake system which is designed and developed to use the dynamic air pressure that is created due to vehicular motion, or ram pressure, in order to increase the static air pressure within the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine of an automobile.

This ultimately implies that, a ram air input allows a greater mass-flow of air through the engine of an automobile, thereby, increasing the engine's power.

In conclusion, indicated airspeed will increase during a climb when both the ram air input and drain hole of the pitot system become blocked.
