A mass of 1.9 kg of air at 120 kPa and 24°C is contained in a gas-tight, frictionless piston–cylinder device. The air is now com

pressed to a final pressure of 600 kPa. During the process, heat is transferred from the air such that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. Calculate the work input during this process. Take the gas constant of air as R = 0.287 kJ/kg·K.

Answer:

W=-260.66 kJ (negative answer means, that the work was done on the gas)

Explanation:

1) Convert temperature from C to K- T=24+273=297K- all temperature in the gas problems should be used in Kelvins;

2) We need to analyse type of the process- it is given, that the temperature is constant, so it is an Isothermal process, which means, that the equation of the process is: pV=const (constant);

3) Work, done on the system, should be calculated using the following equation: W=\int\limits^{Vb}_{Va} {p} \, dV

4) To calculate initical and final volumes (Va and Vb), we can use the following equation: pV=mRT, so V=mRT/p. Note, that the pressure is changing, thus we can calculate volumes for the both cases- initial and final, using initial (120kPa) and final (600kPa) pressures, in addition, we can find equation for the pressure, as function of the volume, which we need to use for the integration in step 3: p=mRT/V;

5) Now we can calculate the integral, given in the step 3: W=mRT ln(\frac{Vb}{Va}). As we have pressure as a known values, we can re-write the equation, using pressures: W=mRT ln(\frac{pa}{pb})=1.9*0.287*279*ln(\frac{120}{160})=-260.66 kJ

Note, that natural logarithm (ln) yields negative answer, which supports the question, that the work was done on the gas, not by the gas.

Give five general principles involved in the process of sewage filtration?​
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Some general principles are given below in the explanation segment.

Explanation:

Sewage treatment seems to be a method to extract pollutants from untreated sewage, consisting primarily of domestic sewage including some solid wastes.

<u>The principles are given below:</u>

  • Unless the components throughout the flow stream become greater than the ports or even the gaps throughout the filter layer, those holes would be filled as either a result of economic detection.
  • The much more common element of filtration would be the use of gravity to extract a combination.
  • Broadcast interception or interference.  
  • Inertial influence.
  • Sieving seems to be an excellent method to distinguish particulates.

Water vapor at 5 bar, 320°C enters a turbine operating at steady state with a volumetric flow rate of 0.65 m3/s and expands adia
harina [27]

Answer:

Power = 371.28 kW

Explanation:

Initial pressure, P1 = 5 bar

Final pressure, P2 = 1 bar

Initial temperature, T1 = 320°C

Final temperature, T2 = 160°C

Volume flow rate, V = 0.65m³/s

From steam tables at state 1,

h1 = 3105.6 kJ/kg, s1 = 7.5308 kJ/kgK

v1 = 0.5416 m³/kg

Mass flow rate, m = V/v1

m = 1.2 kg/s

From steam tables, at state 2

h2 = 2796.2 kJ/kg, s2 = 7.6597 kJ/kgK

Power developed, P = m(h1 - h2)

P = 1.2(3105.6-2796.2)

P = 371.28 kW

The purification of hydrogen gas is possible by diffusion through a thin palladium sheet. Calculate the number of kilograms of h
diamong [38]

Answer:

M=0.0411 kg/h or 4.1*10^{-2} kg/h

Explanation:

We have to combine the following formula to find the mass yield:

M=JAt

M=-DAt(ΔC/Δx)

The diffusion coefficient : D=6.0*10^{-8} m/s^{2}

The area : A=0.25 m^{2}

Time : t=3600 s/h

ΔC: (0.64-3.0)kg/m^{3}

Δx: 3.1*10^{-3}m

Now substitute the  values

M=-DAt(ΔC/Δx)

M=-(6.0*10^{-8} m/s^{2})(0.25 m^{2})(3600 s/h)[(0.64-3.0kg/m^{3})(3.1*10^{-3}m)]

M=0.0411 kg/h or 4.1*10^{-2} kg/h
