Been struggling with this for last 2 hours. Need help, please.

For better thermal control it is common to make catalytic reactors that have many tubes packed with catalysts inside a larger sh

Paul [167]

Answer:

the pressure drop is 0.21159 atm

Explanation:

Given that:

length of the reactor L = 2.5 m

inside diameter of the reactor d= 0.025 m

diameter of alumina sphere $dp$ = 0.003 m

particle density = 1300 kg/m³

the bed void fraction $\in =$ 0.38

superficial mass flux m = 4684 kg/m²hr

The Feed is methane with pressure P = 5 bar and temperature T = 400 K

Density of the methane gas $\rho$ = 0.15 mol/dm ⁻³

viscosity of methane gas $\mu$ = 1.429 x 10⁻⁵ Pas

The objective is to determine the pressure drop.

Let first convert the Density of the methane gas from 0.15 mol/dm ⁻³ to kg/m³

SO; we have :

Density = 0.15 mol/dm ⁻³

Molar mass of methane gas (CH₄) = (12 + (1×4) ) = 16 mol

Density = $0.1 5 *\dfrac{16}{0.1^3}$

Density = 2400

Density $\rho_f$ = 2.4 kg/m³

Density = mass /volume

Thus;

Volume = mass/density

Volume of the methane gas = 4684 kg/m²hr / 2.4 kg/m³

Volume of the methane gas = 1951.666 m/hr

To m/sec; we have :

Volume of the methane gas = 1951.666 * 1/3600 m/sec = 0.542130 m/sec

$Re = \dfrac{dV \rho}{\mu}$

$Re = \dfrac{0.025*0.5421430*2.4}{1.429*10^5}$

$Re=2276.317705$

For Re > 1000

$\dfrac{\Delta P}{L}=\dfrac{1.75 \rho_f(1- \in)v_o}{\phi_sdp \in^3}$

$\dfrac{\Delta P}{2.5}=\dfrac{(1.75 *2.4)(1- 0.38)*0.542130}{1*0.003 (0.38)^3}$

$\Delta P=8575.755212*2.5$

$\Delta = 21439.38803 \ Pa$

To atm ; we have

$\Delta P = \dfrac{21439.38803 }{101325}$

$\Delta P =0.2115903087 \ atm$

ΔP ≅ 0.21159 atm

Thus; the pressure drop is 0.21159 atm

Question #7

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The option that identifies why the bicycle cannot yet be created as a model in the scenario is;

Suzanne forgot to include the exact units of measurement that should be used

Explanation:

The design sketch turned over to the team that will work on the prototype by Suzanne should present all aspects of the design that will enable others working on the design and that make use of the sketch to have a clear understanding of what is required of them

Given that Suzanne has included the numbers that explain the relationship between the sketch and the real world object, the scale that shows the ratios and proportions of the sketch and the actual bicycle has been provided, however, given that the the machinist still need more information, the units of the measurement indicated in the drawing was not included, therefore, the actual dimensions and size that gives the length of the parts of the sketch and of the prototype to be made cannot be determined.
