A pipe of 10 cm inner diameter is used to send crude oil over distance of 400 meters. The entire pipe was laid horizontal. The v

iscosity of the oil is 10 cp. The density of oil is 800 kg/m3 . a. (20 pts) The desired volumetric flow rate is 0.1 m3 /min. What is the Reynolds number of this flow? Is the flow laminar or turbulent? What is the pressure difference needed to generate this flow rate? b. (15 pts) Three month later, the operator found that they had to triple the pressure difference to maintain the flow rate at 0.1 m3 /min. The operator thought that wax deposition from the oil had reduced the inner diameter of the tube. Based on this assumption, can you estimate the reduced inner diameter of the tube? What is the Reynolds number of the flow?

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Looking at Reynolds number, we can go ahead and describe the Reynolds number as a dimensionless value that is used to determine whether the fluid is exhibiting laminar flow (R less than 2300) or turbulent flow (R greater than 4000). Laminar flow is when a fluid moves smoothly and is predictable.

A 4-L pressure cooker has an operating pressure of 175 kPa. Initially, one-half of the volume is filled with liquid and the othe
vodomira [7]

Answer:

the highest rate of heat transfer allowed is 0.9306 kW

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Volume = 4L = 0.004 m³

V_f = V_g = 0.002 m³

Using Table ( saturated water - pressure table);

at pressure p = 175 kPa;

v_f = 0.001057 m³/kg

v_g = 1.0037 m³/kg

u_f = 486.82 kJ/kg

u_g 2524.5 kJ/kg

h_g = 2700.2 kJ/kg

So the initial mass of the water;

m₁ = V_f/v_f + V_g/v_g

we substitute

m₁ = 0.002/0.001057  + 0.002/1.0037

m₁ = 1.89414 kg

Now, the final mass will be;

m₂ = V/v_g

m₂ = 0.004 / 1.0037

m₂ = 0.003985 kg

Now, mass leaving the pressure cooker is;

m_{out = m₁ - m₂

m_{out = 1.89414  - 0.003985

m_{out = 1.890155 kg

so, Initial internal energy will be;

U₁ = m_fu_f + m_gu_g

U₁ = (V_f/v_f)u_f  + (V_g/v_g)u_g

we substitute

U₁ = (0.002/0.001057)(486.82)  + (0.002/1.0037)(2524.5)

U₁ = 921.135288 + 5.030387

U₁ = 926.165675 kJ

Now, using Energy balance;

E_{in -  E_{out = ΔE_{sys

QΔt - m_{outh_{out = m₂u₂ - U₁

QΔt - m_{outh_g = m₂u_g - U₁

given that time = 75 min = 75 × 60s = 4500 sec

so we substitute

Q(4500) - ( 1.890155 × 2700.2 ) = ( 0.003985 × 2524.5 ) - 926.165675

Q(4500) - 5103.7965 = 10.06013 - 926.165675

Q(4500) = 10.06013 - 926.165675 + 5103.7965

Q(4500) = 4187.690955

Q = 4187.690955 / 4500

Q = 0.9306 kW

Therefore, the highest rate of heat transfer allowed is 0.9306 kW

The heat required to raise the temperature of m (kg) of a liquid from T1 to T2 at constant pressure is Z T2CpT dT (1) In high sc
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

(a)

<em>d</em>Q = m<em>d</em>q

<em>d</em>q = C_p<em>d</em>T

q = \int\limits^{T_2}_{T_1} {C_p} \, dT   = C_p (T₂ - T₁)

From the above equations, the underlying assumption is that  C_p remains constant with change in temperature.

(b)

Given;

V = 2L

T₁ = 300 K

Q₁ = 16.73 KJ    ,   Q₂ = 6.14 KJ

ΔT = 3.10 K       ,   ΔT₂ = 3.10 K  for calorimeter

Let C_{cal} be heat constant of calorimeter

Q₂ = C_{cal} ΔT

Heat absorbed by n-C₆H₁₄ = Q₁ - Q₂

Q₁ - Q₂ = m C_p ΔT

number of moles of n-C₆H₁₄, n = m/M

ρ = 650 kg/m³  at 300 K

M = 86.178 g/mol

m = ρv = 650 (2x10⁻³) = 1.3 kg

n = m/M => 1.3 / 0.086178 = 15.085 moles

Q₁ - Q₂ = m C_p' ΔT

C_p = (16.73 - 6.14) / (15.085 x 3.10)

C_p = 0.22646 KJ mol⁻¹ k⁻¹
