The kinetic energy correction factor depends on the (shape — volume - mass) of the cross section Of the pipe and the (velocity —

pressure — temperature distribution.

Answer:

The kinetic energy correction factor the depends on the shape of the cross section of the pipe and the velocity distribution.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy correction factor take into account that the velocity distribution over the pipe cross section is not uniform. In that case, neither the pressure nor the temperature are involving and as we can notice, the velocity distribution depends only on the shape of the cross section.

Steam at 1400 kPa and 350°C [state 1] enters a turbine through a pipe that is 8 cm in diameter, at a mass flow rate of 0.1 kg⋅s−

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Power output, $P_{out} = 178.56 kW$

Given:

Pressure of steam, P = 1400 kPa

Temperature of steam, $T = 350^{\circ}C$

Diameter of pipe, d = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Mass flow rate, $\dot{m} = 0.1 kg.s^{- 1}$

Diameter of exhaust pipe, $d_{h} = 15 cm = 0.15 m$

Pressure at exhaust, P' = 50 kPa

temperature, T' = $100^{\circ}C$

Solution:

Now, calculation of the velocity of fluid at state 1 inlet:

$\dot{m} = \frac{Av_{i}}{V_{1}}$

$0.1 = \frac{\frac{\pi d^{2}}{4}v_{i}}{0.2004}$

$0.1 = \frac{\frac{\pi 0.08^{2}}{4}v_{i}}{0.2004}$

$v_{i} = 3.986 m/s$

Now, eqn for compressible fluid:

$\rho_{1}v_{i}A_{1} = \rho_{2}v_{e}A_{2}$

Now,

$\frac{A_{1}v_{i}}{V_{1}} = \frac{A_{2}v_{e}}{V_{2}}$

$\frac{\frac{\pi d_{i}^{2}}{4}v_{i}}{V_{1}} = \frac{\frac{\pi d_{e}^{2}}{4}v_{e}}{V_{2}}$

$\frac{\frac{\pi \times 0.08^{2}}{4}\times 3.986}{0.2004} = \frac{\frac{\pi 0.15^{2}}{4}v_{e}}{3.418}$

$v_{e} = 19.33 m/s$

Now, the power output can be calculated from the energy balance eqn:

$P_{out} = -\dot{m}W_{s}$

$P_{out} = -\dot{m}(H_{2} - H_{1}) + \frac{v_{e}^{2} - v_{i}^{2}}{2}$

$P_{out} = - 0.1(3.4181 - 0.2004) + \frac{19.33^{2} - 3.986^{2}}{2} = 178.56 kW$

Conditions of special concern: i. Suggest two reasons each why distillation columns are run a.) above or b.) below ambient press

lutik1710 [3]

Solution :

Methods for selling pressure of a distillation column :

a). Set, $\text{based on the pressure required to condensed}$ the overhead stream using cooling water.

(minimum of approximate 45°C condenser temperature)

b). Set, $\text{based on highest temperature}$ of bottom product that avoids decomposition or reaction.

c). Set, $\text{based on available highest }$ not utility for reboiler.

Running the distillation column above the ambient pressure because :

The components to be distilled have very high vapor pressures and the temperature at which they can be condensed at or below the ambient pressure.

Run the reactor at an evaluated temperature because :

a). The rate of reaction is taster. This results in a small reactor or high phase conversion.

b). The reaction is endothermic and equilibrium limited increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right.

Run the reaction at an evaluated pressure because :

The reaction is gas phase and the concentration and hence the rate is increased as the pressure is increased. This results in a smaller reactor and /or higher reactor conversion.

The reaction is equilibrium limited and there are few products moles than react moles. As increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium to the right.

What is the effect of connecting

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: A capacitor connected across the output allows the AC signal to pass through it and blocks the DC signal, thus acting as a high pass filter. The output across the capacitor is thus an unregulated filtered DC signal. This output can be used to drive electrical components like relays, motors, etc.

What type of test can show a chemical engineer if a material remains in a system and accumulates or if it moves right through?

UkoKoshka [18]

A chemical engineer can clearly see from this kind of test if a substance stays in a system and builds up or if it just passes through.

<h3>What is a chemical engineer?</h3>

Processes for manufacturing chemicals are created and designed by chemical engineers.
To solve issues involving the manufacture or usage of chemicals, fuel, medications, food, and many other goods, chemical engineers use the concepts of chemistry, biology, physics, and math.
A wide range of sectors, including petrochemicals and energy in general, polymers, sophisticated materials, microelectronics, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, foods, paper, dyes, and fertilizers, have a significant demand for chemical engineers.
Chemical engineering is undoubtedly difficult because it requires a lot of physics and math, as well as a significant number of exams at the degree level.
