An air stream enters a variable area channel at a velocity of 30 m/s with a pressure of 120 kPa and a temperature of 10°C. At a

certain point in the channel, the velocity is found to be 250 m/s. Using Bernoulli’s equation (i.e., p + rhoV2 /2 = constant), which assumes incompressible flow, find the pressure at this point. In this calculation, use the density evaluated at the inlet conditions. If the temperature of the air is assumed to remain constant, evaluate the air density at the point in the flow where the velocity is 250 m/s. Compare this density with the density at the inlet to the channel. Based on this comparison, do you think that the use of Bernoulli’s equation is justified

Answer:

P₂= 74 kPa under constant density and ρ₂ = 1.06 kg/m³ (-38.6% of error compared with incompresible assumption) . Thus Bernoulli’s equation should not be applied

Explanation:

Assuming ideal gas behaviour of air , then

P*V= n*R*T = m / M * R *T

since

ρ= m/V = P*M /( R *T)

where

n= moles , V= volume , m= mass

ρ= density

P= pressure = 120 kPa= 120000 Pa

M= molecular weight of air = 0.21*32+0.79*28= 28.24 gr/mol = 0.02824 kg/mol

T= absolute temperature = 10°C + 273 = 283 K

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

solving for ρ

ρ=  P*M /( R *T) = 120000 Pa*0.02824 kg/mol/(8.314 J/mol K*283 K) = 1.47 kg/m³

then from Bernoulli's equation

P₁ + ρ*v₁²/2 = P₂ + ρ*v₂²/2

where 1 denotes inlet and 2 denotes other point , p = pressure and v= velocity . Then solving for p₂

P₁ + ρ*v₁²/2 = P₂ +ρ*P₂²/2

P₂=  P₁ +ρ*v₁²/2 - ρ*v₂²/2  = P₁ +ρ/2*(v₁² - v₂²)

replacing values

P₂= P₁ +ρ/2*(v₁² - v₂²) = 120000 Pa + 1.47 kg/m³/2*[(30 m/s)²-(250 m/s)²] = 74724 Pa = 74 kPa

P₂= 74 kPa

then if the temperature remains constant

ρ₁= P₁*M /( R *T) and ρ₂= P₂*M /( R *T)

dividing both equations

ρ₂/ρ₁ = P₂/ P₁

ρ₂ = (P₂/ P₁)*ρ₁

then from Bernoulli's equation

P₁ + ρ₁*v₁²/2 = P₂ + ρ₂*v₂²/2

P₂ = P₁ + ρ₁*v₁²/2 - ρ₂*v₂²/2

therefore

ρ₂ = (P₂/ P₁)*ρ₁ = (P₁ + ρ₁*v₁²/2 - ρ₂*v₂²/2 ) /P₁ *ρ₁

P₁ * ρ₂  = P₁ *ρ₁  + ρ₁²*v₁²/2 - ρ₂*ρ₁ * v₂²/2

P₁ * ρ₂ + ρ₂*ρ₁ * v₂²/2  = P₁ *ρ₁  + ρ₁²*v₁²/2

ρ₂* (P₁ + ρ₁ * v₂²/2) = P₁ *ρ₁  + ρ₁²*v₁²/2

ρ₂ = (P₁ *ρ₁  + ρ₁²*v₁²/2)/(P₁ + ρ₁ * v₂²/2) =  (P₁ + ρ₁*v₁²/2)/(P₁/ρ₁ + v₂²/2)

replacing values

ρ₂ = ( 120000 Pa + 1.47 kg/m³/2*(30 m/s)²)/(120000 Pa/1.47 kg/m³+1/2*(250 m/s)²)

ρ₂ = 1.06 kg/m³

the error of assuming constant ρ would be

e = (ρ₂ - ρ)/ρ₂=  1- ρ/ρ₂= 1- 1.47 kg/m³/1.06 kg/m³ = -0.386 (-38.6%)

thus Bernoulli’s equation should not be applied

Given

6.00 g of a certain compound X

The molecular molar mass of 180. g/mol

CO₂=8.8 g

H₂O=3.6 g

Required

The molecular formula

Solution

mass C in CO₂ :

= 1.12/44 x 8.8

= 2.4 g

mass H in H₂O :

= 2.1/18 x 3.6

= 0.4 g

Mass O in compound :

= 6-(2.4+0.4)

= 3.2 g

Mol ratio C : H : O

= 2.4/12 : 0.4/1 : 3.2/16

= 0.2 : 0.4 : 0.2

= 1 : 2 : 1

The empirical formula : CH₂O

(CH₂O)n=180 g/mol

(12+2+16)n=180

(30)n=180

n=6

(CH₂O)₆=C₆H₁₂O₆

The new volume of the bag : 747.43 ml

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Charles's Law  

When the gas pressure is kept constant, the gas volume is proportional to the temperature  

\tt \dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

V₁=250 ml

T₁=19+273=292 K

T₂=600+273=873 K

\tt V_2=\dfrac{V_1.T_2}{T_1}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{250\times 873}{292}\\\\V_2=747.43~ml
