A large well-mixed tank of unknown volume, open to the atmosphere initially, contains pure water. The initial height of the solu

tion in the tank is unknown. At the start of the experiment a potassium chloride solution in water starts flowing into the tank from two separate inlets. The first inlet has a diameter of 1 cm and delivers a solution with a specific gravity of 1.07 and a velocity of 0.2 m/s. The second inlet with a diameter of 2 cm delivers a solution with a velocity of 0.01 m/s and a density of 1053 kg/m3. The single outflow from this tank has a diameter of 3cm. A colleague helps you by taking samples of the tank and outflow in your absence. He samples the tank and determines that the tank contains 19.7 kg of potassium chloride. At the same moment he measures the flow rate at the outlet to be 0.5 L/s, and the concentration of potassium chloride to be 13 g/L. Show that your colleague took the samples after 25 minutes. The tank and all the inlet solutions are maintained at a constant temperature of 80 °C. Calculate the exact time when the sample were taken.

Answer:

The exact time when the sample was taken is = 0.4167337 hr

Explanation:

The diagram of a sketch of the tank is shown on the first uploaded image

Let A denote the  first inlet

Let B denote the second inlet

Let C denote the single outflow from the tank

From the question we are given that the diameter of A is = 1 cm = 0.01 m

                              Area of  A is  = \frac{\pi}{4}(0.01)^{2} m^{2}

                                                    = 7.85 *10^{-5}m^{2}

Velocity of liquid through A = 0.2 m/s

  The rate at which the liquid would flow through the first inlet in terms of volume  = \frac{Volume of Inlet }{time} = Velocity * Area i.e is m^{2} * \frac{m}{s}   = \frac{m^{3}}{s}

             = 0.2 *7.85*10^{-5} \frac{m^{3}}{s}

  The rate at which the liquid would flow through the first inlet in terms of mass of the liquid = mass of liquid × the rate of flow in terms of volume

                              =  1039.8 * 0.2 * 7.85 *10^{-5} Kg/s

                              = 0.016324 \frac{Kg}{s}

From the question the diameter of B = 2 cm = 0.02 m

                                           Area of B = \frac{\pi}{4} * (0.02)^{2} m^{2} = 3.14 * 10^{-4}m^{2}

                                     Velocity of liquid through B = 0.01 m/s

The rate at which the liquid would flow through the first inlet in terms of volume  = \frac{Volume of Inlet }{time} = Velocity * Area i.e is m^{2} * \frac{m}{s}   = \frac{m^{3}}{s}

             = 3.14*10^{-4} *0.01 \frac{m^{3}}{s}

The rate at which the liquid would flow through the second inlet in terms of mass of the liquid = mass of liquid × the rate of flow in terms of volume

                              = 1053 * 3.14*10^{-6} \frac{Kg}{s}

                              = 0.00330642 \frac{Kg}{s}

From the question The flow rate in term of volume of the outflow at the time of measurement is given as  = 0.5 L/s

And also from the question the mass of  potassium chloride  at the time of measurement is given as 13 g/L

So The rate at which the liquid would flow through the outflow in terms of mass of the liquid = mass of liquid × the rate of flow in terms of volume

                              = 13\frac{g}{L} * 0.5 \frac{L}{s}

                              =  \frac{6.5}{1000}\frac{Kg}{s}       Note (1 Kg = 1000 g)

                              = 0.0065 kg/s

Considering potassium chloride

         Let denote the  rate at which liquid flows in terms of mass as   as \frac{dm}{dt} i.e change in mass with respect to time hence

           Input(in terms of mass flow ) - output(in terms of mass flow ) = Accumulation in the Tank(in terms of mass flow )

         

      (0.016324 + 0.00330642) - 0.0065 = \frac{dm}{dt}

          \int\limits {\frac{dm}{dt} } \, dx  =\int\limits {0.01313122} \, dx

      => 0.01313122 t = (m - m_{o})

  From the question  (m - m_{o})  is given as = 19.7 Kg

Hence the time when the sample was taken is given as

               0.01313122 t = 19.7 Kg

      =>  t = 1500.2414 sec

            t = .4167337 hours (1 hour = 3600 seconds)

Vikki [24]

Given acceleration a = 5-3t, and its velocity is 7 at time t = 2, the value of s2 - s1 = 7

<h3>How to solve for the value of s2 - s1</h3>

We have

= \frac{dv}{dt} =v't = 5-3t\\\\\int\limits^a_b {v'(t)} \, dt

= \int\limits^a_b {(5-3t)} \, dt

5t - \frac{3t^2}{2} +c

v2 = 5x2 -  3x2 + c

= 10-6+c

= 4+c

s(t) = \frac{5t^2}{2} -\frac{t^3}{2} +3t + c

S2 - S1

=(5*\frac{4}{2} -\frac{8}{2} +3*2*c)-(\frac{5}{2} *1^2-\frac{1^2}{2} +3*1*c)

= 6 + 6+c - 2+3+c

12+c-5+c = 0

7 = c

11–17 A long, thin-walled double-pipe heat exchanger with tube and shell diameters of 1.0 cm and 2.5 cm, respectively, is used t
lana [24]

Answer:

the overall heat transfer coefficient of this heat exchanger is 1855.8923 W/m²°C

Explanation:

Given:

d₁ = diameter of the tube = 1 cm = 0.01 m

d₂ = diameter of the shell = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Refrigerant-134a

20°C is the temperature of water

h₁ = convection heat transfer coefficient = 4100 W/m² K

Water flows at a rate of 0.3 kg/s

Question: Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient of this heat exchanger, Q = ?

First at all, you need to get the properties of water at 20°C in tables:

k = 0.598 W/m°C

v = 1.004x10⁻⁶m²/s

Pr = 7.01

ρ = 998 kg/m³

Now, you need to calculate the velocity of the water that flows through the shell:

v_{w} =\frac{m}{\rho \pi (\frac{d_{2}^{2}-d_{1}^{2}  }{4} )} =\frac{0.3}{998*\pi (\frac{0.025^{2}-0.01^{2}  }{4}) } =0.729m/s

It is necessary to get the Reynold's number:

Re=\frac{v_{w}(d_{2}-d_{1}) }{v} =\frac{0.729*(0.025-0.01)}{1.004x10^{-6} } =10891.4343

Like the Reynold's number is greater than 10000, the regime is turbulent. Now, the Nusselt's number:

Nu=0.023Re^{0.8} Pr^{0.4} =0.023*(10891.4343)^{0.8} *(7.01)^{0.4} =85.0517

The overall heat transfer coefficient:

Q=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{h_{1} }+\frac{1}{h_{2} }  }

Here

h_{2} =\frac{kNu}{d_{2}-d_{1}} =\frac{0.598*85.0517}{0.025-0.01} =3390.7278W/m^{2}C

Substituting values:

Q=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4100}+\frac{1}{3390.7278}  } =1855.8923W/m^{2} C

Briefly discuss if it would be better to operate with pumps in parallel or series and how your answer would change as the steepn
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

1) In series, the combined head will move from point 1 to point 2 in theory. However, practically speaking, the combined head and flow rate will move along the system curve to point 3.

2) In parallel, the combined head and volume flow will move along the system curve from point 1 to point 3.

Explanation:

1) Pump in series:

When two or more pumps are connected in series, their resulting pump performance curve will be obtained by adding their respective heads at the same flow rate as shown in the first diagram attached.

In the first diagram, we have 3 curves namely:

- system curve

- single pump curve

- 2 pump in series curve

Also, we have points labeled 1, 2 and 3.

- Point 1 represents the point that the system operates with one pump running.

- Point 2 represents the point where the head of two identical pumps connected in series is twice the head of a single pump flowing at the same rate.

- Point 3 is the point where the system is operating when both pumps are running.

Now, since the flowrate is constant, the combined head will move from point 1 to point 2 in theory. However, practically speaking, the combined head and flow rate will move along the system curve to point 3.

2) Pump in parallel:

When two or more pumps are connected in parallel, their resulting pump performance curve will be obtained by adding their respective flow rates at same head as shown in the second diagram attached.

In the second diagram, we have 3 curves namely:

- system curve

- single pump curve

- 2 pump in series curve

Also, we have points labeled 1, 2 and 3

- Point 1 represents the point that the system operates with one pump running.

- Point 2 represents the point where the flow rate of two identical pumps connected in series is twice the flow rate of a single pump.

- Point 3 is the point where the system is operating when both pumps are running.

In this case, the combined head and volume flow will move along the system curve from point 1 to point 3.

The Energy Losses Associated with Valves and Fittings: a)- are generally associated with a K factor b)- are generally associated
madam [21]

Answer:

a)Are generally associated with factor.

Explanation:

We know that losses are two types

1.Major loss  :Due to friction of pipe surface

2.Minor loss  :Due to change in the direction of flow

As we know that when any hindrance is produced during the flow of fluid then it leads to generate the energy losses.If flow is along uniform diameter pipe then there will not be any loss but if any valve and fitting placed is the path of fluid flow due to this direction of fluid flow changes and  it produce losses in the energy.

Lot' of experimental data tell us that loss in the energy due to valve and fitting are generally associated with K factor.These losses are given as

Losses=K\dfrac{V^2}{2g}
