A counter-flow double pipe heat exchanger is heat heat water from 20 degrees Celsius to 80 degrees Celsius at the rate of 1.2 kg

/s. The heating is to be accomplished by geothermal water available at 160 degrees Celsius at a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The inner tube is thin-walled and has a diameter of 1.5 cm. if the overall heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is 649 W/m2K, determine the length of the heat exchanger required to achieve the desired heating.

Answer:

L=107.6m

Explanation:

Cold water in: m_{c}=1.2kg/s, C_{c}=4.18kJ/kg\°C, T_{c,in}=20\°C, T_{c,out}=80\°C

Hot water in: m_{h}=2kg/s, C_{h}=4.18kJ/kg\°C, T_{h,in}=160\°C, T_{h,out}=?\°C

D=1.5cm=0.015m, U=649W/m^{2}K, LMTD=?\°C, A_{s}=?m^{2},L=?m

Step 1: Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger

Q=m_{c}C_{c}(T_{c,out}-T_{c,in})

Q=1.2*4.18*(80-20)

Q=1.2*4.18*(80-20)

Q=300.96kW

Step 2: Determine outlet temperature of hot water

Q=m_{h}C_{h}(T_{h,in}-T_{h,out})

300.96=2*4.18*(160-T_{h,out})

T_{h,out}=124\°C

Step 3: Determine the Logarithmic Mean Temperature Difference (LMTD)

dT_{1}=T_{h,in}-T_{c,out}

dT_{1}=160-80

dT_{1}=80\°C

dT_{2}=T_{h,out}-T_{c,in}

dT_{2}=124-20

dT_{2}=104\°C

LMTD = \frac{dT_{2}-dT_{1}}{ln(\frac{dT_{2}}{dT_{1}})}

LMTD = \frac{104-80}{ln(\frac{104}{80})}

LMTD = \frac{24}{ln(1.3)}

LMTD = 91.48\°C

Step 4: Determine required surface area of heat exchanger

Q=UA_{s}LMTD

300.96*10^{3}=649*A_{s}*91.48

A_{s}=5.07m^{2}

Step 5: Determine length of heat exchanger

A_{s}=piDL

5.07=pi*0.015*L

L=107.57m

Is it acceptable to mix used absorbents.
Lyrx [107]
In order to comply with the used oil rule,a facility must properly manage its oil-contaminated sorbents (I.e. , don’t mix other wastes with these sorbets) and it must either recycle sorbets or send them for disposal at a permitted facility that burn them for energy recovery.

The jib crane is supported by a pin at Cand rod AB. The rod can withstand a maximum tension of 40 kN. If the load has a mass of
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The maximum allowable distance = 5 m

Explanation:

Data:

There will be three forces on the jib. Let the forces be denoted as:

C_{x}, C_{y} and the force on pole AB

To find the angle AB makes with the horizontal beam:

tan^{-1}(\frac{3}{4}) = 36.8699

The load has a mass of 2 000 kg then, the force will be:

F = mg, where g = 9.81 m/s²

  = 2000* 9.81 = 19 620 N

Breaking AB into its x and y coordinates:

AB_{x}=ABcos(36.8699)\\AB_{y} = ABsin(36.8699)

Then,

∑M_{c} = 0

0 = (4)(AB sin (36.8699) + 0.2 (AB cos (36.8699) - (5*19620)\\AB = 38 320. 3 N

∑F_{x} = 0\\C_{x} = AB cos(36.8699)\\C_{x} = 30 656.2 N

∑F_{y} = 0\\C_{y} + AB sin (36.8699) - 19 620 = 0\\C_{y} = - 3 372.18 N

so the components of the forces will be 30 656.2 N and - 3 372.18 N

The direction of rotation of a dc series motor or a universal motor connected to a dc power source A) depends on the polarities
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

<em>A) depends on the polarities of the armature and field currents.</em>

Explanation:

In the DC series motor, or a universal motor, the field and armature winding are connected in series. This means that if the polarity of the input DC voltage is changed, the direction of the field & armature will also change, resulting in the change of direction of rotation of the motor. This means that the direction of rotation of a DC series motor, or a universal motor connected to a DC power source can be reversed by changing the polarity of the field current, or the armature current.

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from
Greeley [361]

Answer:

D) 1.04 Btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.

Explanation:

Given that:

flow rate (m) = 2 lb/s

liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet (h_{1}=40.09 Btu/lb)

liquid specific enthalpy at the exit (h_{2}=40.94 Btu/lb)

initial elevation (z_1=0ft)

final elevation (z_2=100ft)

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 32.174 ft/s²

W_{cv} = 3 Btu/s

The energy balance equation is given as:

Q_{cv}-W{cv}+m[(h_1-h_2)+(\frac{V_1^2-V_2^2}{2})+g(z_1-z_2)]=0

Since  kinetic energy effects are negligible, the equation becomes:

Q_{cv}-W{cv}+m[(h_1-h_2)+g(z_1-z_2)]=0

Substituting values:

Q_{cv}-(-3)+2[(40.09-40.94)+\frac{32.174(0-100)}{778*32.174} ]=0\\Q_{cv}+3+2[-0.85-0.1285 ]=0\\Q_{cv}+3+2(-0.9785)=0\\Q_{cv}+3-1.957=0\\Q_{cv}+1.04=0\\Q_{cv}=-1.04\\

The heat transfer rate is 1.04 Btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.
