A hot-water stream at 60oC enters a mixing chamber with a mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s where it is mixed with a stream of cold wat

er at 10oC. If it is desired that the mixture leave the chamber at 41oC, determine the mass flow rate of the cold-water stream. Assume all the streams are at a pressure of 250 kPa.

Answer: 0.306 kg/s

Explanation:

If we assume that the specific heat for all stream is constant, we can then say, the mass flow rate of cold water can be calculated by using the energy balance equation.

The energy balance equation basically states that, the heat gained is equal to the heat lost

m'1h1 + m'2h2 = m'3h3

m'1T1 + m'2T2 = (m'1 + m'2) T3

0.5 (60) + m'2(10) = (0.5 + m'2)41

30 + 10m'2 = 20.5 + 41m'2

30 - 20.5 = 41m'2 - 10m'2

9.5 = 31m'2

m'2 = 9.5 / 31

m'2 = 0.306 kg/s

Answer:

the mass flow rate of the cold-water stream = 0.3065 kg/s

Explanation:

To solve this, we will work under the assumption that all the streams have constant specific heats. Thus, using energy balance equation, we can calculate the mass flow rate of the cold water from ;

m'1h1 + m'2h2 = m'3h3

This transforms to;

m'1T1 + m'2T2 = (m'1 + m'2) T3

Where;

m'1 is the flow rate of hot stream water = 0.5 kg/s

T1 is the temperature of the hot stream water = 60°C

T2 is the temperature of the cold water = 10°C

T3 = Temperature at which the mixture leaves the chamber = 41°C

m'2 is mass flow rate of cold stream water.

Let's make m'2 the subject;

m'1T1 + m'2T2 = (m'1 + m'2) T3

m'1T1 + m'2T2 = m'1•T3 + m'2•T3

m'1T1 - m'1•T3 = m'2•T3 - m'2T2

m'2(T3 - T2) = m'1(T1 - T3)

m'2 = (m'1)[(T1 - T3)/(T3 - T2)

Thus, plugging in relevant values to get ;

m'2 = 0.5[(60 - 41)/(41 - 10)

m'2 = 0.5(19/31)

m'2 = 0.3065 kg/s

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Engineer A results will be more accurate

Explanation:

Analytical method is better than numerical method. Engineer A has used analytical method and therefore his results will be more accurate because he used simplified method. Engineer B has used software to solve the problem related to heat transfer his results will be approximate.

Determine the following parameters for the water having quality x=0.7 at 200 kPa:
ra1l [238]

Solution :

Given :

Water have quality x = 0.7 (dryness fraction) at around pressure of 200 kPa

The phase diagram is provided below.

a). The phase is a standard mixture.

b). At pressure, p = 200 kPa, T = $T_{saturated}$

   Temperature = 120.21°C

c). Specific volume

  $v_{f}= 0.001061, \ \ v_g=0.88578 \ m^3/kg$

  $v_x=v_f+x(v_g-v_f)$

       $=0.001061+0.7(0.88578-0.001061)$

       $=0.62036 \ m^3/kg$

d). Specific energy (u_x)

    $u_f=504.5 \ kJ/kg, \ \ u_{fg}=2024.6 \ kJ/kg$

   $u_x=504.5 + 0.7(2024.6)$

         $=1921.72 \ kJ/kg$

e). Specific enthalpy $(h_x)$

   At $h_f = 504.71, \ \ h_{fg} = 2201.6$

   h_x=504.71+(0.7\times 2201.6)

        $= 2045.83 \ kJ/kg$

f). Enthalpy at m = 0.5 kg

  $H=mh_x$

       $= 0.5 \times 2045.83$

       = 1022.91 kJ

natita [175]

Answer:

Complete question is:

write the following decorators and apply them to a single function (applying multiple decorators to a single function):

1. The first decorator is called strong and has an inner function called wrapper. The purpose of this decorator is to add the html tags of <strong> and </strong> to the argument of the decorator. The return value of the wrapper should look like: return “<strong>” + func() + “</strong>”

2. The decorator will return the wrapper per usual.

3. The second decorator is called emphasis and has an inner function called wrapper. The purpose of this decorator is to add the html tags of <em> and </em> to the argument of the decorator similar to step 1. The return value of the wrapper should look like: return “<em>” + func() + “</em>.

4. Use the greetings() function in problem 1 as the decorated function that simply prints “Hello”.

5. Apply both decorators (by @ operator to greetings()).

6. Invoke the greetings() function and capture the result.

Code :

def strong_decorator(func):

def func_wrapper(name):

return "<strong>{0}</strong>".format(func(name))

return func_wrapper

def em_decorator(func):

def func_wrapper(name):

return "<em>{0}</em>".format(func(name))

return func_wrapper

@strong_decorator

@em_decorator

def Greetings(name):

return "{0}".format(name)

print(Greetings("Hello"))
