Refrigerant-134a at 700 kPa, 70°C, and 7.2 kg/min is cooled by water in a condenser until it exists as a saturated liquid at the

same pressure. The cooling water enters the condenser at 300 kPa and 15°C and leaves at 25°C at the same pressure. Determine the mass flow rate of the cooling water required to cool the refrigerant. The enthalpies of R-134a at the inlet and exit states are 308.34 kJ/kg and 88.82 kJ/kg. The enthalpies of compressed water at both states are 62.98 kJ/kg and 104.83 kJ/kg.

Answer:

The mass flow rate of cooling water required to cool the refrigerant is 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}.

Explanation:

A condenser is a heat exchanger used to cool working fluid (Refrigerant 134a) at the expense of cooling fluid (water), which works usually at steady state. Let suppose that there is no heat interactions between condenser and surroundings.The condenser is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics, which states:

\dot Q_{ref} - \dot Q_{w} = 0

\dot Q_{ref} = \dot Q_{w}

\dot m_{ref}\cdot (h_{ref, in} - h_{ref,out}) = \dot m_{w}\cdot (h_{w, out} - h_{w,in})

The mass flow rate of the cooling water is now cleared:

\dot m_{w} = \dot m_{ref }\cdot \frac{h_{ref,in}-h_{ref,out}}{h_{w,out}-h_{w,in}}

Given that h_{ref,in} = 808.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}, h_{ref, out} = 88.82\,\frac{kJ}{kg}, h_{w,out} = 104.83\,\frac{kJ}{kg} and h_{w,in} = 62.98\,\frac{kJ}{kg}, the mass flow of the cooling water is:

\dot m_{w} = \left(7.2\,\frac{kg}{min} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{808.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-88.82\,\frac{kJ}{kg} }{104.83\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-62.98\,\frac{kJ}{kg} } \right)

\dot m_{w} = 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}

The mass flow rate of cooling water required to cool the refrigerant is 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}.

Wastewater flows into a _________ once it is released into a floor drain.
rodikova [14]

Answer:

A) Sump pit

Explanation:

A wastewater typically refers to a body of water that has contaminated through human use in homes, offices, schools, businesses etc. Wastewater are meant to be disposed in accordance with the local regulations and standards because they are unhygienic for human consumption or use.

Generally, many homes use a floor drain in their bathrooms and toilets to remove wastewater in order to mitigate stagnation and to improve hygiene. A floor drain can be defined as a material installed on floors for the continuous removal of any stagnant wastewater in buildings. Wastewater flows into a sump pit once it is released into a floor drain through the use of a pipe such as a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe, which directly connects the floor drain to the sump pit. The wastewater can the be removed from the sump pit when it is filled up through the use of a pump.

Small droplets of carbon tetrachloride at 68 °F are formed with a spray nozzle. If the average diameter of the droplets is 200 u
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

the difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the droplets is 538 Pa

Explanation:

given data

temperature = 68 °F

average diameter = 200 µm

to find out

what is the difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the droplets

solution

we know here surface tension of carbon tetra chloride at 68 °F is get from table 1.6 physical properties of liquid that is

σ = 2.69 × 10^{-2} N/m

so average radius = \frac{diameter}{2} =  100 µm = 100 ×10^{-6} m

now here we know relation between pressure difference and surface tension

so we can derive difference pressure as

2π×σ×r = Δp×π×r²    .....................1

here r is radius and  Δp pressure difference and σ surface tension

Δp = \frac{2 \sigma }{r}    

put here value

Δp = \frac{2*2.69*10^{-2}}{100*10^{-6}}  

Δp = 538

so the difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the droplets is 538 Pa

Gold forms a substitutional solid solution with silver. Compute the number of gold atoms per cubic centimeter for a silver-gold
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Compute the number of gold atoms per cubic centimeter = 9.052 x 10^21 atoms/cm3

Explanation:

The step by step and appropriate substitution is as shown in the attachment.

From number of moles = Concentration x volume

number of moles = number of particles/ Avogadro's number

Volume = mass/density, the appropriate derivation to get the number of moles of atoms
