A liquid phase reaction, A → B, is to be carried out in an isothermal, well mixed batch reactor with a volume of 1L. Initially t

here are 6 moles of A. The rate of destruction of A is given by –rA =k1CA/ (1+k2CA), where k1=4, k2 =5. The unit of time in the rate constants is hours. Calculate the time, in hours, that the reaction must proceed in the reactor in order to result in 3 moles of A remaining in the reactor.

Refrigerant-134a at 400 psia has a specific volume of 0.1144 ft3/lbm. Determine the temperature of the refrigerant based on (a)
vekshin1

Answer:

a) Using Ideal gas Equation, T = 434.98°R = 435°R

b) Using Van Der Waal's Equation, T = 637.32°R = 637°R

c) T obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is T = 559.67°R = 560°R

Explanation:

a) Ideal gas Equation

PV = mRT

T = PV/mR

P = pressure = 400 psia

V/m = specific volume = 0.1144 ft³/lbm

R = gas constant = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T = 400 × 0.1144/0.1052 = 434.98 °R

b) Van Der Waal's Equation

T = (1/R) (P + (a/v²)) (v - b)

a = Van Der Waal's constant = (27R²(T꜀ᵣ)²)/(64P꜀ᵣ)

R = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T꜀ᵣ = critical temperature for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 673.6°R

P꜀ᵣ = critical pressure for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 588.7 psia

a = (27 × 0.1052² × 673.6²)/(64 × 588.7)

a = 3.596 ft⁶.psia/lbm²

b = (RT꜀ᵣ)/8P꜀ᵣ

b = (0.1052 × 673.6)/(8 × 588.7) = 0.01504 ft³/lbm

T = (1/0.1052) (400 + (3.596/0.1144²) (0.1144 - 0.01504) = 637.32°R

c) The temperature for the refrigerant-134a as obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is

T = 100°F = 559.67°R

How to draw the output voltage waveform rectifier
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Half-wave rectifier converts an AC signal into a DC signal. It's called a half-wave because it only rectify the positive part of an AC signal.

AC Signal = An electrical signal that alternates between positive and negative voltage.

DC Signal = An electrical signal that only has positive voltage.

Rectify = A fancy word for converting something.

Adding a capacitor helps the positive part of the signal stay on longer. This work because the capacitor stores energy kinda like a battery. During the negative part of the AC signal, the energy stored in the capacitor will be drained and used, then the cycle repeats.

The load resistor is just there to prevent a short circuit from happening.

Which of these cars traveled faster during time interval <br> please show solution
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

I think D is correct

Explanation:

C is decreasing function, probably worst

A is arctan -> in radian, the rate of increasing is very slow-> second worst

B(14) = ln(9*14) = 4.8

D(14) = sqrt(8+14^2)=14.2

inna [77]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The heat transferred in the process is -274.645 kJ

Explanation:

To solve the question, we list out the variables thus

R-134a = Tetrafluoroethane

Intitial Temperaturte t₁ = 100 °C

Initial pressure = 3.5 bar = 350 kPa

For closed system we have m₁ = m₂ = m

ΔU = m×(u₂ - u₁) = ₁Q₂ -₁W₂

For constant pressure process we have

Work done = W = \int\limits^a_b P \, dV  = P×ΔV = P × (V₂ - V₁) = P×m×(v₂ - v₁)

From the tables we have

State 1 we have h₁ = (490.48 +489.52)/2 = 490 kJ/kg

State 2 gives h₂ = 206.75 + 0.75 × 194.57= 352.6775 kJ/kg

Therefore Q₁₂ = m×(u₂ - u₁) + W₁₂ = m × (u₂ - u₁) + P×m×(v₂ - v₁)

= m×(h₂ - h₁) = 2.0 kg × (352.6775 kJ/kg - 490 kJ/kg) =-274.645 kJ
