You just purchased a 400-L rigid tank for a client who works in the gas industry. The tank is delivered pre-filled with 3 kg of

air at a temperature of 25C. Assuming an atmospheric pressure of 98 kPa, determine the pressure reading if you connected a pressure gage to the tank.

Answer:

the pressure reading when connected a pressure gauge is 543.44 kPa

Explanation:

Given data

tank volume (V) = 400 L i.e 0.4 m³

temperature (T) = 25°C i.e. 25°C + 273 = 298 K

air mass (m) = 3 kg

atmospheric pressure = 98 kPa

To find out

pressure reading

Solution

we have find out pressure reading by gauge pressure

i.e. gauge pressure = absolute pressure - atmospheric pressure

first we find absolute pressure (p) by the ideal gas condition

i.e pV = mRT

p = mRT / V

p = ( 3 × 0.287 × 298 ) / 0.4

p = 641.44 kPa

so

gauge pressure = absolute pressure - atmospheric pressure

gauge pressure = 641.44 - 98

gauge pressure = 543.44 kPa

Hot carbon dioxide exhaust gas at 1 atm is being cooled by flat plates. The gas at 220 °C flows in parallel over the upper and l

sergeinik [125]

The local convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from the leading edge is $0.44 \frac{W}{m^{2} \times K}$ , the average convection heat transfer coefficient over the entire plate is $0.293 \frac{W}{m^{2} \times K}$ and the total heat flux transfer to the plate is $61.6 KJ$ .

Explanation:

It is case of heat and mass transfer in which due to temperature difference between gas and surface. Further temperature boundary layer will developed on flat plate in longitudinal direction.

physical properties

$r= 1.05 \frac{kg}{m^{3}}$

$c_p = 1.02 \frac{kJ}{Kg \times K}$

$m= 231 \times 10^{7} \frac{N \times s }{m^2}$

υ = $21.8 \times 10^{6} \frac{m^2}{s}$

$k = 32.5 \times 10^{3} \frac{W}{m \times K}$

$\alpha = 30.1 \times 10^{6} \frac{m^{2}}{s}$

$Pr = 0.725$

Apart from these other data arr given below,

$v= 3 \frac{m}{s} \\ p= 1 atm \\ L_c = 1.5m \\T_g= 220 C \\ T_s = 80 C$

To find the local convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from the leading edge, we use correlation used for laminar flow over flat plate,

$Nu = \frac{ h \times L }{k} = 0.332 \times (Re^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (Pr^{\frac{1}{3} })$

where h= Average heat transfer coefficient

L= Length of a plate

k= Thermal Conductivity of carbon dioxide

Re = Reynold's Number

Pr = Prandtle Number

(a) Convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from the leading edge

is referred as local convection heat transfer coefficient.

To find convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from leading edge,

$Nu = \frac{ h_local \times L }{k} = 0.332 \times (Re^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (Pr^{\frac{1}{3} })$

Here, first we have to find Re and Pr,

$Re = \frac{r \times v \times L}{m}$

$Re = \frac{1.0594 \times 3 \times 1}{231 \times 10^{7}}$

$Re = 20.63 \times 10^{-10}$

Pr number is take from physical property data and Pr is 0.725.

Putting value of Re and Pr in main equation,

we get

$Nu = \frac{ h_local \times 1 }{32.5 \times 10^{3}} = 0.332 \times ( (20.63 \times 10^{-10})^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (0.725^{\frac{1}{3} })$

$h_local = 32.5 \times 10^{3} \times 0.332 \times ( (20.63 \times 10^{-10})^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (0.725^{\frac{1}{3} })$

$h_local = 0.44 \frac{W}{m^{2} \times K}$

(b) To find average convection heat transfer coefficient,

it can be find out as case (a), only difference is that instead of L=1 m, L=1.5 m would come,

Therefore,

$Nu = \frac{ h \times 1.5 }{32.5 \times 10^{3}} = 0.332 \times ( (20.63 \times 10^{-10})^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (0.725^{\frac{1}{3} })$

Finally,

$h = \frac{0.44}{1.5}$

$h = 0.293 \frac{W}{m^{2} \times K}$

(C) Total heat flux transfer to the plate is found out by,

$Q = h \times (T_g - T_s)$

$Q = 0.293 \times (220-80) \\ Q= 0.293 \times 140 \\ Q= 61.6 KJ$

A seamless pipe 800mm diameter contains a fluid under a pressure of 2N/mm2. If the permissible tensile stress is 100N/mm2, find

Bad White [126]

Answer:

8 mm

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter, D = 800 mm

Pressure, P = 2 N/mm²

Permissible tensile stress, σ = 100 N/mm²

Now,

for the pipes, we have the relation as:

$\sigma=\frac{\textup{PD}}{\textup{2t}}$

where, t is the thickness

on substituting the respective values, we get

$100=\frac{\textup{2\times800}}{\textup{2t}}$

or

t = 8 mm

Hence, the minimum thickness of pipe is 8 mm

// The next line declares the final result of summation of divisors. The variable declared is also

//initialised to 0

int result = 0;

// find all numbers which divide 'num'

for (int i=2; i<=(num/2); i++)

{

// if 'i' is divisor of 'num'

if (num%i==0)
