Marie and James are bubbling dry pure nitrogen (N2) through a tank of liquid water (H2O) containing ethane (C2H6). The vapor str

eam enters at 25oC, and 14000 mmHg. The tank operates at steady state, and the liquid flow rate enters at 15000 mol/min with a mole fraction of water of 0.999995. The separation of ethane is isothermal and isobaric, and 91% of the ethane is separated into the exiting vapor. Henry's law applies for ethane entering in the liquid and exiting in the vapor. Determine the following three unknowns.
1. Mole fraction of exiting ethane in the vapor phase = Ex: 0.021
2. Flow rate of ethane exiting in the liquid phase = Ex: 15 mol/day
3. Flow rate of entering nitrogen = Ex: 4.3 mol/min

Two balanced Y-connected loads in parallel, one drawing 15kW at 0.6 power factor lagging and the other drawing 10kVA at 0.8 powe

NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) attached below

(b) $pf_{C}=0.85$ $lagging$

(c) $I_{C} =32.37 A$

(d) $X_{C} =49.37$ Ω

(e) $I_{cap} =9.72 A$ and $I_{line} =27.66 A$

Explanation:

Given data:

$P_{1}=15 kW$

$S_{2} =10 kVA$

$pf_{1} =0.6$ $lagging$

$pf_{2}=0.8$ $leading$

$V=480$ $Volts$

(a) Draw the power triangle for each load and for the combined load.

$\alpha_{1}=cos^{-1} (0.6)=53.13$ °

$\alpha_{2}=cos^{-1} (0.8)=36.86$ °

$S_{1}=P_{1} /pf_{1} =15/0.6=25 kVA$

$Q_{1}=P_{1} tan(\alpha_{1} )=15*tan(53.13)=19.99$ ≅ $20kVAR$

$P_{2} =S_{2}*pf_{2} =10*0.8=8 kW$

$Q_{2} =P_{2} tan(\alpha_{2} )=8*tan(-36.86)=-5.99$ ≅ $-6 kVAR$

The negative sign means that the load 2 is providing reactive power rather than consuming

Then the combined load will be

$P_{c} =P_{1} +P_{2} =15+8=23 kW$

$Q_{c} =Q_{1} +Q_{2} =20-6=14 kVAR$

(b) Determine the power factor of the combined load and state whether lagging or leading.

$S_{c} =P_{c} +jQ_{c} =23+14j$

or in the polar form

$S_{c} =26.92$ °

$pf_{C}=cos(31.32) =0.85$ $lagging$

The relationship between Apparent power S and Current I is

$S=VI^{*}$

Since there is conjugate of current I therefore, the angle will become negative and hence power factor will be lagging.

(c) Determine the magnitude of the line current from the source.

Current of the combined load can be found by

$I_{C} =S_{C}/\sqrt{3}*V$

$I_{C} =26.92*10^3/\sqrt{3}*480=32.37 A$

(d) Δ-connected capacitors are now installed in parallel with the combined load. What value of capacitive reactance is needed in each leg of the A to make the source power factor unity?Give your answer in Ω

$Q_{C} =3*V^2/X_{C}$

$X_{C} =3*V^2/Q_{C}$

$X_{C} =3*(480)^2/14*10^3$ Ω

(e) Compute the magnitude of the current in each capacitor and the line current from the source.

Current flowing in the capacitor is

$I_{cap} =V/X_{C} =480/49.37=9.72 A$

Line current flowing from the source is

$I_{line} =P_{C} /3*V=23*10^3/3*480=27.66 A$

Which statement about tensile stress is true? A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a t

svp [43]

Answer:

A. Forces that act perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart exert a tensile stress on the object.

Explanation:

Tensile stress is referred as a deforming force, in which force acts perpendicular to the surface and pull an object apart, attempting to elongate it.

The tensile stress is a type of normal stress, in which a perpendicular force creates the stress to an object’s surface.

Hence, the correct option is "A."
