A tank with a volume of 8 m3 containing 4 m3 of 20% (by volume) NaOH solution is to be purged by adding pure water at a rate of

3 m3/h. The solution leaves the tank at a rate of 2 m3/h. When the tank is full, the solution leave the tank at the same inlet flow of 3 m3/h. Assume perfect mixing. Specific gravity of pure NaOH is 1.22. Determine the time necessary to purge 95% of the NaOH by mass from the tank.

Answer:

The time necessary to purge 95% of the NaOH is 0.38 h

Explanation:

Given:

vfpure water(i) = 3 m³/h

vNaOH = 4 m³

xNaOH = 0.2

vfpure water(f) = 2 m³/h

pwater = 1000 kg/m³

pNaOH = 1220 kg/m³

The mass flow rate of the water is = 3 * 1000 = 3000 kg/h

The mass of NaOH in the solution is = 0.2 * 4 * 1220 = 976 kg

When the 95% of the NaOH is purged, thus the NaOH in outlet is = 0.95 * 976 = 927.2 kg

The volume of NaOH in outlet after time is = 927.2/1220 = 0.76 m³

The time required to purge the 95% of the NaOH is = 0.76/2 = 0.38 h

1. Consider a city of 10 square kilometers. A macro cellular system design divides the city up into square cells of 1 square kil
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

a) n = 1000\,users, b)\Delta t_{min} = \frac{1}{30}\,h, \Delta t_{max} = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{30}\,h, \Delta t_{mean} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{2} }{60}\,h, c) n = 10000000\,users, \Delta t_{min} = \frac{1}{3000}\,h, \Delta t_{max} = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{3000}\,h, \Delta t_{mean} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{2} }{6000}\,h

Explanation:

a) The total number of users that can be accomodated in the system is:

n = \frac{10\,km^{2}}{1\,\frac{km^{2}}{cell} }\cdot (100\,\frac{users}{cell} )

n = 1000\,users

b) The length of the side of each cell is:

l = \sqrt{1\,km^{2}}

l = 1\,km

Minimum time for traversing a cell is:

\Delta t_{min} = \frac{l}{v}

\Delta t_{min} = \frac{1\,km}{30\,\frac{km}{h} }

\Delta t_{min} = \frac{1}{30}\,h

The maximum time for traversing a cell is:

\Delta t_{max} = \frac{\sqrt{2}\cdot l }{v}

\Delta t_{max} = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{30}\,h

The approximate time is giving by the average of minimum and maximum times:

\Delta t_{mean} = \frac{1+\sqrt{2} }{2}\cdot\frac{l}{v}

\Delta t_{mean} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{2} }{60}\,h

c) The total number of users that can be accomodated in the system is:

n = \frac{10\times 10^{6}\,m^{2}}{100\,m^{2}}\cdot (100\,\frac{users}{cell} )

n = 10000000\,users

The length of each side of the cell is:

l = \sqrt{100\,m^{2}}

l = 10\,m

Minimum time for traversing a cell is:

\Delta t_{min} = \frac{l}{v}

\Delta t_{min} = \frac{0.01\,km}{30\,\frac{km}{h} }

\Delta t_{min} = \frac{1}{3000}\,h

The maximum time for traversing a cell is:

\Delta t_{max} = \frac{\sqrt{2}\cdot l }{v}

\Delta t_{max} = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{3000}\,h

The approximate time is giving by the average of minimum and maximum times:

\Delta t_{mean} = \frac{1+\sqrt{2} }{2}\cdot\frac{l}{v}

\Delta t_{mean} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{2} }{6000}\,h

A 4-stroke Diesel engine with a displacement of Vd = 2.5x10^-3m^3 produces a mean effective pressure of 6.4 bar at the speed of
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The power developed by engine is 167.55 KW

Explanation:

Given that

V_d=2.5\times 10^{-3} m^3

Mean effective pressure = 6.4 bar

Speed = 2000 rpm

We know that power is the work done per second.

So

P=6.4\times 100\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\times \dfrac{2\pi \times2000}{120}

We have to notice one point that we divide by 120 instead of 60, because it is a 4 cylinder engine.

P=167.55 KW

So the power developed by engine is 167.55 KW

Chlorine is one of the important commodity chemicals for the global economy. Before the advent of large scale
artcher [175]

The composition of gas in the feed, the percentage conversion and the

theoretical yield are combined to give the product stream composition.

Response:

The composition of gas in the product stream are;

  • HCl: 0.4 kmol/h, Cl₂: 1.6 kmol/h, H₂O: 1.6 kmol/h, O₂: 0.5 kmol/h

<h3>How can percentage conversion give the contents of the product stream?</h3>

The amount of oxygen used = 30% exceeding the theoretical amount

Number of moles of hydrochloric acid = 4 kmol/h

Percentage conversion = 80%

Required:

The composition of the gas in the product feed.

Solution;

The given reaction is; 4HCl + O₂ \longrightarrow 2Cl₂ + 2H₂O

Percentage \ conversion = \mathbf{ \dfrac{Moles \ of \ limiting \ reactant \ reacted}{Moles \  of \ limiting \ reactant \ supplied \ in \ the \, feed}}

Which gives;

80 \% = \mathbf{ \dfrac{Moles \ of \ limiting \ reactant \ reacted}{4 \, kmol/h}}

Moles of limiting reactant reacted = 4 kmol/h × 0.80 = 3.6 kmol/h

Which gives;

Number of moles of HCl in the stream = 4 kmol/h - 3.6 kmol/h = 0.4 kmol/h

Number of moles of Cl₂ produced = 2 kmol/h × 0.8 = 1.6 kmol/h

Similarly;

Number of moles of H₂O produced = 2 kmol/h × 0.8 = 1.6 kmol/h

Number of moles of O₂ in the product stream = 30% × 1 kmol/h + 20% × 1 kmol/h = 0.5 kmol/h

The composition of the production stream is therefore;

  • <u>HCl: 0.4 kmol/h</u>
  • <u>Cl₂: 1.6 kmol/h</u>
  • <u>H₂O: 1.6 kmol/h</u>
  • <u>O₂: 0.5 kmol/h</u>

An unknown immiscible liquid seeps into the bottom of an open oil tank. Some measurements indicate that the depth of the unknown
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The specific weight of unknown liquid is found to be 15 KN/m³

Explanation:

The total pressure in tank is measured to be 65 KPa in the tank. But, the total pressure will be equal to the sum of pressures due to both oil and unknown liquid.

Total Pressure = Pressure of oil + Pressure of unknown liquid

65 KPa = (Specific Weight of oil)(depth of oil) + (Specific Weight of unknown liquid)(depth of unknown liquid)

65 KN/m² = (8.5 KN/m³)(5 m) + (Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid)(1.5 m)

(Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid)(1.5 m) = 65 KN/m² - 42.5 KN/m²

(Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid) = (22.5 KN/m²)/1.5 m

<u>Specific Weight of Unknown Liquid = 15 KN/m³</u>
