Consider the diffusion of water vapor through a polypropylene (PP) sheet 1 mm thick. The pressures of H2O at the two faces are 3

kPa and 9 kPa, which are maintained constant. Assuming conditions of steady state, what is the diffusion flux, in [(cm3 STP)/cm2-s], at 298 K

Answer:

\boxed{0.000000266 \frac {cm^{3}.STP}{cm^{2}.s}}

Explanation:

Diffusion flux of a gas, J is given by

J=P_m\frac {\triangle P}{\triangle x} where P_m is permeability coefficient, \triangle P is pressure difference and x is thickness of membrane.

The pressure difference will be 10,000 Pa- 3000 Pa= 7000 Pa

At 298 K, the permeability coefficient of water vapour through polypropylene sheet is 38\times 10^{-13}(cm^{3}. STP)(cm)/(cm^{2}.s.Pa)

Since the thickness of sheet is given as 1mm= 0.1 cm then

J=38\times 10^{-13}(cm^{3}. STP)(cm)/(cm^{2}.s.Pa)\times \frac {7000 pa}{0.1cm}=0.000000266 \frac {cm^{3}.STP}{cm^{2}.s}

Therefore, the diffusion flux is \boxed{0.000000266 \frac {cm^{3}.STP}{cm^{2}.s}}

A cylindrical insulation for a steam pipe has an inside radius rt = 6 cm, outside radius r0 = 8 cm, and a thermal conductivity k
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation is 4368.145 W

Explanation:

given data

inside radius r1 = 6 cm

outside radius r2 = 8 cm

thermal conductivity k = 0.5 W/m°C

inside temperature t1 = 430°C

outside temperature t2 = 30°C

to find out

Determine the heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation

solution

we know thermal resistance formula for cylinder that is express as

Rth = \frac{ln\frac{r2}{r1}}{2 \pi *k * L}   .................1

here r1 is inside radius and r2 is outside radius L is length and k is thermal conductivity

so

heat loss is change in temperature divide thermal resistance

Q = \frac{t1- t2}{\frac{ln\frac{r2}{r1}}{2 \pi *k * L}}

Q = \frac{(430-30)*(2 \pi * 0.5 * 1}{ln\frac{8}{6} }

Q = 4368.145 W

so heat loss per 1-m length of this insulation is 4368.145 W

What issues does society try to forget in order to not have to deal with them ?
velikii [3]

Answer: Homelessness, Drug addiction, Mental Illness, Climate change.

Explanation:

Society would rather be ignorant to/ ignore all of these realities so they do not have to stop specific behaviors or actually acknowledge other people and help. Sometimes people are so stressed out about their own lives, they can not bare another persons issues. People are ignorant to climate change because correcting it requires massive changes and society is selfish and unwilling to change.
