Answer:

Taking as a basis of calculation 100 mol of gas leaving the conversion reactor, draw andcompletely label a flowchart of this process. Then calculate the moles of fresh methanol feed,formaldehyde product solution, recycled methanol, and absorber off-gas, the kg of steamgenerated in the waste-heat boiler, and the kg of cooling water fed to the heat exchangerbetween the waste-heat boiler and the absorber. Finally, calculate the heat (kJ) that must beremoved in the distillation column overhead condenser, assuming that methanol enters as asaturated vapor at 1 atm and leaves as a saturated liquid at the same pressure.

Air enters a cmpressor at 20 deg C and 80 kPa and exits at 800 kPa and 200 deg C. The power input is 400 kW. Find the heat trans

aksik [14]

Answer:

The heat is transferred is at the rate of 752.33 kW

Solution:

As per the question:

Temperature at inlet, $T_{i} = 20^{\circ}C$ = 273 + 20 = 293 K

Temperature at the outlet, $T_{o} = 200{\circ}C$ = 273 + 200 = 473 K

Pressure at inlet, $P_{i} = 80 kPa = 80\times 10^{3} Pa$

Pressure at outlet, $P_{o} = 800 kPa = 800\times 10^{3} Pa$

Speed at the outlet, $v_{o} = 20 m/s$

Diameter of the tube, $D = 10 cm = 10\times 10^{- 2} m = 0.1 m$

Input power, $P_{i} = 400 kW = 400\times 10^{3} W$

Now,

To calculate the heat transfer, $Q$ , we make use of the steady flow eqn:

$h_{i} + \frac{v_{i}^{2}}{2} + gH + Q = h_{o} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + gH' + p_{s}$

where

$h_{i}$ = specific enthalpy at inlet

$h_{o}$ = specific enthalpy at outlet

$v_{i}$ = air speed at inlet

$p_{s}$ = specific power input

H and H' = Elevation of inlet and outlet

Now, if

$v_{i} = 0$ and H = H'

Then the above eqn reduces to:

$h_{i} + gH + Q = h_{o} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + gH + p_{s}$

$Q = h_{o} - h_{i} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + p_{s}$ (1)

Also,

$p_{s} = \frac{P_{i}}{ mass, m}$

Area of cross-section, A = $\frac{\pi D^{2}}{4} =\frac{\pi 0.1^{2}}{4} = 7.85\times 10^{- 3} m^{2}$

Specific Volume at outlet, $V_{o} = A\times v_{o} = 7.85\times 10^{- 3}\times 20 = 0.157 m^{3}/s$

From the eqn:

$P_{o}V_{o} = mRT_{o}$

$m = \frac{800\times 10^{3}\times 0.157}{287\times 473} = 0.925 kg/s$

Now,

$p_{s} = \frac{400\times 10^{3}}{0.925} = 432.432 kJ/kg$

Also,

$\Delta h = h_{o} - h_{i} = c_{p}\Delta T =c_{p}(T_{o} - T_{i}) = 1.005(200 - 20) = 180.9 kJ/kg$

Now, using these values in eqn (1):

$Q = 180.9 + \frac{20^{2}}{2} + 432.432 = 813.33 kW$

Now, rate of heat transfer, q:

q = mQ = $0.925\times 813.33 = 752.33 kW$

Two identical billiard balls can move freely on a horizontal table. Ball a has a velocity V0 and hits balls B, which is at rest,

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Velocity of ball B after impact is $0.6364v_0$ and ball A is $0.711v_0$

Explanation:

$v_0$ = Initial velocity of ball A

$v_A=v_0\cos45^{\circ}$

$v_B$ = Initial velocity of ball B = 0

$(v_A)_n'$ = Final velocity of ball A

$v_B'$ = Final velocity of ball B

$e$ = Coefficient of restitution = 0.8

From the conservation of momentum along the normal we have

$mv_A+mv_B=m(v_A)_n'+mv_B'\\\Rightarrow v_0\cos45^{\circ}+0=(v_A)_n'+v_B'\\\Rightarrow (v_A)_n'+v_B'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}v_0$

Coefficient of restitution is given by

$e=\dfrac{v_B'-(v_A)_n'}{v_A-v_B}\\\Rightarrow 0.8=\dfrac{v_B'-(v_A)_n'}{v_0\cos45^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow v_B'-(v_A)_n'=\dfrac{0.8}{\sqrt{2}}v_0$

$(v_A)_n'+v_B'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}v_0$

$v_B'-(v_A)_n'=\dfrac{0.8}{\sqrt{2}}v_0$

Adding the above two equations we get

$2v_B'=\dfrac{1.8}{\sqrt{2}}v_0\\\Rightarrow v_B'=\dfrac{0.9}{\sqrt{2}}v_0$

$\boldsymbol{\therefore v_B'=0.6364v_0}$

$(v_A)_n'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}v_0-0.6364v_0\\\Rightarrow (v_A)_n'=0.07071v_0$

From the conservation of momentum along the plane of contact we have

$(v_A)_t'=(v_A)_t=v_0\sin45^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow (v_A)_t'=\dfrac{v_0}{\sqrt{2}}$

$v_A'=\sqrt{(v_A)_t'^2+(v_A)_n'^2}\\\Rightarrow v_A'=\sqrt{(\dfrac{v_0}{\sqrt{2}})^2+(0.07071v_0)^2}\\\Rightarrow \boldsymbol{v_A'=0.711v_0}$

Velocity of ball B after impact is $0.6364v_0$ and ball A is $0.711v_0$ .
