The fouling on the heat exchanger surfaces causes additional thermal resistance, thus decreases the heat transfer rate. a)- True

b)-False
Engineering

makvit [3.9K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

First, it must be known that heat transfer is equal to the temperature difference divided in the thermal resistance, so the fouling that is a layer of dirt that accumulates on the surface of the heat exchanger over time this layer ends up becoming an additional thermal resistance, increasing the total thermal resistance, giving a drop in the rate which the heat is transferred, so in this case the statement would be true.

Steam enters an adiabatic condenser (heat exchanger) at a mass flow rate of 5.55 kg/s where it condensed to saturated liquid wat
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The minimum mass flow rate will be "330 kg/s".

Explanation:

Given:

For steam,

m_{s}=5.55 \ kg/s

\Delta h=2491 \ kg/kj

For water,

\Delta T=10^{\circ}C

(Cp)_{w}=4.184 \ kJ/kg^{\circ}C

They add energy efficiency as condenser becomes adiabatic, with total mass flow rate of minimal vapor,

⇒  m_{s}\times (\Delta h)=M_{w}\times(Cp)_{w}\times \Delta T

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒  5.55\times 2491=M_{w}\times 4.184\times 10\\

⇒  13825.05=M_{w}\times 41.84

⇒  M_{w}=330 \ kg/s

slega [8]

Answer:

Option A

Chemical engineering

Explanation:

Chemical engineering mainly encompass the study of behavior of different particles such as petroleum, water, drugs and other products. When Anne is involved in a study with engineers who study flow of particles, the flow, viscosity and other properties are among the behavior that chemical engineers are involved in.

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130 lb and
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A.) 0.3088

B.) 0.0017

C.) part A

Explanation:

A.)

z1= \frac{\left(150-137\right)}{27.7}=0.4693

z2=\frac{\left(201-137\right)}{27.7}=2.3105

P(0.4693

B.)

z1=\frac{150-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}} =2.9309\\z2=\frac{201-137}{27.7/ \sqrt{39}}=14.4289

\\P(2.9309

C.) Since the seat performance for an individual pilot is more important than 39 different pilots.
