A 400-m^3 storage tank is being constructed to hold LNG, liquefied natural gas, which may be assumed to be essentially pure meth

ane. If the tank is to contain 90% liquid and 10% vapor, by volume, at 150 K, what mass of LNG (kg) will the tank hold? What is the quality in the tank?

Answer:

mass of LNG: 129501.3388 kg

quality: 0.005048662

Explanation:

Volume occupied by liquid:

400 m^3*0.9 = 360 m^3

Volume occupied by vapor

400 m^3*0.1 = 40 m^3  

A figured with thermodynamic properties of saturated methane is attached. Notice that a liquid-gas mixture is present

For liquid phase specific volume (vf) at 150 K is 0.002794 m^3/kg and for vapor phase specific volume (vg) is 0.06118 m^3/kg

From specific volume definition:

vf = liquid volume/liquid mass

liquid mass = liquid volume/vf

liquid mass = 360 m^3/0.002794 m^3/kg

liquid mass = 128847.5304 kg

vg = vapor volume/vapor mass

vapor mass = liquid volume/vg

vapor mass = 40 m^3/0.06118 m^3/kg

vapor mass = 653.8084341 kg

total mass = 128847.5304 kg + 653.8084341 kg = 129501.3388 kg

Quality is defined as the ratio between vapor mass and total mass

quality =  653.8084341 kg/129501.3388 kg = 0.005048662

allsm [11]

Answer:

The difference of head in the level of reservoir is 0.23 m.

Explanation:

For pipe 1

d_1=50 mm,f_1=0.0048

For pipe 2

d_2=75 mm,f_2=0.0058

Q=2.8 l/s

Q=2.8\times 10^{-3]

We know that Q=AV

Q=A_1V_1=A_2V_2

A_1=1.95\times 10^{-3}m^2

A_2=4.38\times 10^{-3} m^2

So V_2=0.63 m/s,V_1=1.43 m/s

head loss (h)

h=\dfrac{f_1L_1V_1^2}{2gd_1}+\dfrac{f_2L_2V_2^2}{2gd_2}+0.5\dfrac{V_1^2}{2g}

Now putting the all values

h=\dfrac{0.0048\times 15\times 1.43^2}{2\times 9.81\times 0.05}+\dfrac{0.0058\times 24\times 0.63^2}{2\times 9.81\times 0.075}+0.5\dfrac{1.43^2}{2\times 9.81}

So h=0.23 m

So the difference of head in the level of reservoir is 0.23 m.

An L2 steel strap having a thickness of 0.125 in. and a width of 2 in. is bent into a circular arc of radius 600 in. Determine t
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

the maximum bending stress in the strap is 3.02 ksi

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

steel strap thickness = 0.125 in

width = 2 in

circular arc radius = 600 in

we know that, standard value of modulus of elasticity of L2 steel is; E = 29 × 10³ ksi;

Now, using simple theory of bending

1/p = M/EI

solve for M

Mp = EI

M = EI / p ----- let this be equation 1

The maximum bending stress in the strap is;

σ = Mc / I -------let this be equation 2

substitute equation 1 into 2

σ = ( EI / p)c / I

σ = ( c/p )E

so we substitute in our values

σ = ( (0.125/2) / 600 )29 × 10³

σ = 0.00010416666 × 29 × 10³

σ = 3.02 ksi

Therefore, the maximum bending stress in the strap is 3.02 ksi
