Close to 16 billion pounds of ethylene glycol (EG) were produced in 2013. It previously ranked as the twenty-sixth most produced

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

a) 0.684

b) 0.90

Explanation:

Catalyst

EO + W → EG

a) calculate the conversion exiting the first reactor

CAo = 16.1 / 2 mol/dm^3

Given that there are two stream one contains 16.1 mol/dm^3 while the other contains 0.9 wt% catalyst

Vo = 7.24 dm^3/s

Vm = 800 gal = 3028 dm^3

hence Im = Vin/ Vo = (3028 dm^3) / (7.24dm^3/s) = 418.232 secs = 6.97 mins

next determine the value of conversion exiting the reactor ( Xai ) using the relation below

KIm = $\frac{Xai}{1-Xai}$ ------ ( 1 )

make Xai subject of the relation

Xai = KIm / 1 + KIm --- ( 2 )

where : K = 0.311 , Im = 6.97 ( input values into equation 2 )

Xai = 0.684

B) calculate the conversion exiting the second reactor

CA1 = CA0 ( 1 - Xai )

therefore CA1 = 2.5438 mol/dm^3

Vo = 7.24 dm^3/s

To determine the value of the conversion exiting the second reactor ( Xa2 ) we will use the relation below

XA2 = ( Xai + Im K ) / ( Im K + 1 ) ----- ( 3 )

where : Xai = 0.684 , Im = 6.97, and K = 0.311 ( input values into equation 3 )

XA2 = 0.90

Which type of boot authentication is more secure?

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The type of boot authentication that is more secure is Unified Extensible Firmware Interface

Unified Extensible Firmware Interface help to provide a computer booting that is more secured.

Unified Extensible Firmware Interface is a computer software program that work hand in hand with an operating system, it main function is to stop a computer system from boot with an operating system that is not secured.

For a computer system to boot successfully it means that the Operating system support the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface because it secured.

Inconclusion The type of boot authentication that is more secure is Unified Extensible Firmware Interface

Refrigerant-134a at 400 psia has a specific volume of 0.1144 ft3/lbm. Determine the temperature of the refrigerant based on (a)

vekshin1

Answer:

a) Using Ideal gas Equation, T = 434.98°R = 435°R

b) Using Van Der Waal's Equation, T = 637.32°R = 637°R

c) T obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is T = 559.67°R = 560°R

Explanation:

a) Ideal gas Equation

PV = mRT

T = PV/mR

P = pressure = 400 psia

V/m = specific volume = 0.1144 ft³/lbm

R = gas constant = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T = 400 × 0.1144/0.1052 = 434.98 °R

b) Van Der Waal's Equation

T = (1/R) (P + (a/v²)) (v - b)

a = Van Der Waal's constant = (27R²(T꜀ᵣ)²)/(64P꜀ᵣ)

R = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T꜀ᵣ = critical temperature for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 673.6°R

P꜀ᵣ = critical pressure for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 588.7 psia

a = (27 × 0.1052² × 673.6²)/(64 × 588.7)

a = 3.596 ft⁶.psia/lbm²

b = (RT꜀ᵣ)/8P꜀ᵣ

b = (0.1052 × 673.6)/(8 × 588.7) = 0.01504 ft³/lbm

T = (1/0.1052) (400 + (3.596/0.1144²) (0.1144 - 0.01504) = 637.32°R

c) The temperature for the refrigerant-134a as obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is

T = 100°F = 559.67°R

Applying the Entropy Balance: Closed Systems Five kg of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas undergoes a process in a well-insulated piston–

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a) the amount of energy produced in kJ/K is 0.73145 kJ/K

b) the amount of energy produced in kJ/K is 0.68975 kJ/K

The value for entropy production obtained using constant specific heats is approximately 6% higher than the value obtained when accounting explicitly for the variation in specific heats.

Explanation:

Draw the T-s diagram.

a)

$C_p$ = 0.939 kJ/kg.K , m = 5 kg , T₂ = 520 K , T₁ = 280

R = [8.314 kJ / 44.01 kg.K] , P₂ = 20 bar , P₁ = 2 bar

Δs = $m[c_p ln(\frac{T_2}{T_1}) - Rln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})]$

Substitute all parameters in the equation

Δs = $5[(0.939) ln(\frac{520}{280}) - (\frac{8.314}{44.01})ln(\frac{20}{2})]$

Δs = 5 kg × 0.14629 kJ/kg.K

= 0.73145 kJ/K

b)

Δs = $m[\frac{s^0(T_2) - s^0(T_1)}{M} - Rln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})]$

Where T₁ = 280 K , s°(T₁) = 211.376 kJ/kmol.K

T₂ = 520 K , s°(T₂) = 236.575 kJ/kmol.K

R = [8.314 kJ / 44.01 kg.K] , M = 44.01 kg.K , P₂ = 20 bar , P₁ = 2 bar

Δs = $5[\frac{236.575 - 211.376}{44.01} - (\frac{8.314}{44.01})ln(\frac{20}{2})]$

= 5 kg (0.13795 kJ/kg.K)

= 0.68975 kJ/K

The value for entropy production obtained using constant specific heats is approximately 6% higher than the value obtained when accounting explicitly for the variation in specific heats.

A hydrauliic jack is rated at 5000 pound capacity. The area of the large piston on the jack is 4.45 Square inches. Calculate the

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

1123.6 pounds/ square inch.

Explanation:

Fluid pressure is the ratio of force or weight applied by the fluid per unit area.

i.e Fluid pressure = $\frac{weight}{area}$

The maximum load of the jack is obtained at its maximum capacity = 5000 pounds

Area of the large piston on the jack = 4.45 square inches

Thus,

Fluid pressure = $\frac{5000}{4.45}$

= 1123.5955

Fluid pressure = 1123.6 pounds/ square inch

Thu, the fluid pressure in the jack at maximum load is 1123.6 pounds/ square inch.
