Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Pressure, P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa
Area of the square surface, A = 10² = 100 m²
We need to find the mass of vertical column of air. We know that, pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. So,
So, the required mass of the vertical column of air is 
.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
Steam Mass rate, ms = 1.5 kg/min
= 1.5 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec
= 0.025 kg/s
Air Mass rate, ma = 100 kg/min
= 100 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec
= 1.67 kg/s
A.
Extracting the specific enthalpy and temperature values from property table of “Saturated water – Pressure table” which corresponds to temperature at 0.07 MPa.
xf, quality = 0.9.
Tsat = 89.9°C
hf = 376.57 kJ/kg
hfg = 2283.38 kJ/kg
Using the equation for specific enthalpy,
hi = hf + (hfg × xf)
= 376.57 + (2283.38 × 0.9)
= 2431.552 kJ/kg
The specific enthalpy of the outlet, h2 = hf
= 376.57 kJ/kg
B.
Rate of enthalpy (heat exchange), Q = mass rate, ms × change in specific enthalpy
= ms × (hi - h2)
= 0.025 × (2431.552 - 376.57)
= 0.025 × 2055.042
= 51.37455 kW
= 51.38 kW.
