Answer:

1. It is a good practice to fully define a sketch to avoid having erroneous dimensions on the faces of a solid, this avoids that when it is required to make an assembly with the drawn part appear assembly errors.

2. The 2D sketch should always be done on a plane, so solidworks would ask you to select a plane on which you want to make the sketch, on the other hand, if it is a 3D sketch, solidworks allows you to do it without the need for Select any plane.

Methane and oxygen react in the presence of a catalyst to form formaldehyde. In a parallel reaction, methane is oxidized to carb

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

$y_{CH_4}^2=\frac{5mol/s}{100mol/s}=0.05\\y_{O_2}^2=\frac{3mol/s}{100mol/s}=0.03\\y_{H_2O}^2=\frac{47mol/s}{100mol/s}=0.47\\y_{HCHO}^2=\frac{43mol/s}{100mol/s}=0.43\\y_{CO_2}^2=\frac{2mol/s}{100mol/s}=0.02$

Explanation:

Hello,

a. On the attached document, you can see a brief scheme of the process. Thus, to know the degrees of freedom, we state the following unknowns:

- $\xi_1$ and $\xi_2$ : extent of the reactions (2).

- $F_{O_2}^2$ , $F_{CH_4}^2$ , $F_{H_2O}^2$ , $F_{HCHO}^2$ and $F_{CO_2}^2$ : Molar flows at the second stream (5).

On the other hand, we've got the following equations:

- $F_{O_2}^2=50mol/s-\xi_1-2\xi_2$ : oxygen mole balance.

- $F_{CH_4}^2=50mol/s-\xi_1-\xi_2$ : methane mole balance.

- $F_{H_2O}^2=\xi_1+2\xi_2$ : water mole balance.

- $F_{HCHO}^2=\xi_1$ : formaldehyde mole balance.

- $F_{CO_2}^2=\xi_2$ : carbon dioxide mole balance.

Thus, the degrees of freedom are:

$DF=7unknowns-5equations=2$

It means that we need two additional equations or data to solve the problem.

b. Here, the two missing data are given. For the fractional conversion of methane, we define:

$0.900=\frac{\xi_1+\xi_2}{50mol/s}$

And for the fractional yield of formaldehyde we can set it in terms of methane as the reagents are equimolar:

$0.860=\frac{F_{HCHO}^2}{50mol/s}$

In such a way, one realizes that the output formaldehyde's molar flow is:

$F_{HCHO}^2=0.860*50mol/s=43mol/s$

Which is equal to the first reaction extent $\xi_1$ , therefore, one computes the second one from the fractional conversion of methane as:

$\xi_2=0.900*50mol/s-\xi_1\\\xi_2=0.900*50mol/s-43mol/s\\\xi_2=2mol/s$

Now, one computes the rest of the output flows via:

- $F_{O_2}^2=50mol/s-43mol/s-2*2mol/s=3mol/s$

- $F_{CH_4}^2=50mol/s-43mol/s-2mol/s=5mol/s$

- $F_{H_2O}^2=43mol/s+2*2mol/s=47mol/s$

- $F_{HCHO}^2=43mol/s$

- $F_{CO_2}^2=2mol/s$

The total output molar flow is:

$F_{O_2}+F_{CH_4}+F_{H_2O}+F_{HCHO}+F_{CO_2}=100mol/s$

Therefore the output stream composition turns out into:

Best regards.

Water at 15°C is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 18 L/s using two horizontal cast iron pipes connected in series

love history [14]

Answer:

The required pumping head is 1344.55 m and the pumping power is 236.96 kW

Explanation:

The energy equation is equal to:

$\frac{P_{1} }{\gamma } +\frac{V_{1}^{2} }{2g} +z_{1} =\frac{P_{2} }{\gamma } +\frac{V_{2}^{2} }{2g} +z_{2}+h_{i} -h_{pump} , if V_{1} =0,z_{2} =0\\h_{pump} =\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{2} +h_{i}-z_{1}$

For the pipe 1, the flow velocity is:

$V_{1} =\frac{Q}{\frac{\pi D^{2} }{4} }$

Q = 18 L/s = 0.018 m³/s

D = 6 cm = 0.06 m

$V_{1} =\frac{0.018}{\frac{\pi *0.06^{2} }{4} } =6.366m/s$

The Reynold´s number is:

$Re=\frac{\rho *V*D}{u} =\frac{999.1*6.366*0.06}{1.138x10^{-3} } =335339.4$

$\frac{\epsilon }{D} =\frac{0.00026}{0.06} =0.0043$

Using the graph of Moody, I will select the f value at 0.0043 and 335339.4, as 0.02941

The head of pipe 1 is:

$h_{1} =\frac{V_{1}^{2} }{2g} (k_{L}+\frac{fL}{D} )=\frac{6.366^{2} }{2*9.8} *(0.5+\frac{0.0294*20}{0.06} )=21.3m$

For the pipe 2, the flow velocity is:

$V_{2} =\frac{0.018}{\frac{\pi *0.03^{2} }{4} } =25.46m/s$

The Reynold´s number is:

$Re=\frac{\rho *V*D}{u} =\frac{999.1*25.46*0.03}{1.138x10^{-3} } =670573.4$

$\frac{\epsilon }{D} =\frac{0.00026}{0.03} =0.0087$

The head of pipe 1 is:

$h_{2} =\frac{V_{2}^{2} }{2g} (k_{L}+\frac{fL}{D} )=\frac{25.46^{2} }{2*9.8} *(0.5+\frac{0.033*36}{0.03} )=1326.18m$

The total head is:

hi = 1326.18 + 21.3 = 1347.48 m

The required pump head is:

$h_{pump} =\frac{25.46^{2} }{2*9.8} +1347.48-36=1344.55m$

The required pumping power is:

$P=Q\rho *g*h_{pump} =0.018*999.1*9.8*1344.55=236965.16W=236.96kW$

rjkz [21]

Answer:

1200KJ

Explanation:

The heat dissipated in the rotor while coming down from its running speed to zero, is equal to three times its running kinetic energy.

P (rotor-loss) = 3 x K.E

P = 3 x 300 = 900 KJ

After coming to zero, the motor again goes back to running speed of 1175 rpm but in opposite direction. The KE in this case would be;

KE = 300 KJ

Since it is in opposite direction, it will also add up to rotor loss

P ( rotor loss ) = 900 + 300 = 1200 KJ
