What is the differences between stack and queue?

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

A stack is an ordered list of elements where all insertions and deletions are made at the same end, whereas a queue is exactly the opposite of a stack.

For the following conditions determine whether a CMFR or a PFR is more efficient in removing a reactive compound from the waste

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Xₚբᵣ = 0.632

X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5

Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ

Explanation:

From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction

Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is

kτ = (X)/(1 - X)

k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day

τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀

V = volume of reactor = 280 m³

F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day

X = conversion

k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)

0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)

1 = X/(1 - X)

X = 1 - X

2X = 1

X = 1/2 = 0.5

For the PFR

Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by

kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]

The parameters are the same as above,

0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)

1 = In (1/(1-X))

e = 1/(1 - X)

2.718 = 1/(1 - X)

1 - X = 1/2.718

1 - X = 0.3679

X = 1 - 0.3679

X = 0.632

The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

A 600-MW steam power plant, which is cooled by a nearby river, has a thermal efficiency of 54 percent. Determine the rate of hea

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

$\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW$ . Heat transfer can be higher if themal efficiency is lower.

Explanation:

The heat transfer rate to the river water is calculated by this expression:

$\dot Q_{L} = \dot Q_{H} - \dot W$

$\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{\eta_{th}}-1 )\cdot \dot W\\\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{0.54}-1)\cdot (600 MW)\\\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW$

The actual heat transfer can be higher if the steam power plant reports an thermal efficiency lower than expected.

A concentrated load P is applied to the upper end of a 1.47-m-long pipe. The outside diameter of the pipe is D = 112 mm and the

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Pmax = 38251.73 N

Explanation:

Given info

L = 1.47 m

D = 112 mm ⇒ R = D/2 = 112/2 mm = 56 mm

d = 101 mm ⇒ r = D/2 = 101/2 mm = 50.5 mm

a) We can apply the following equation in order to get Q (First Moment of Area):

Q = 2*(A₁*y₁-A₂*y₂)

where

A₁ = π*R² = π*(56 mm)² = 3136 π mm²

y₁ = 4*R/(3*π) = 4*56/(3*π) mm = 224/(3*π) mm

A₂ = π*r² = π*(50.5 mm)² = 2550.25 π mm²

y₂ = 4*r/(3*π) = 4*50.5/(3*π) mm = 202/(3*π) mm

then

Q = 2*(3136 π mm²*224/(3*π) mm-2550.25 π mm²*202/(3*π) mm)

⇒ Q = 62437.833 mm³

b) If τallow = 83 MPa = 83 N/mm²

P = ?

We can use the equation

τ = V*Q / (t*I) ⇒ V = τ*t*I / Q

where

t = D - d = 112 mm - 101 mm = 11 mm

I = (π/64)*(D⁴-d⁴) = (π/64)*((112 mm)⁴-(101 mm)⁴) = 2615942.11 mm⁴

Q = 62437.833 mm³

we could also use this equation in order to get Q:

Q = (4/3)*(R³-r³)

⇒ Q = (4/3)*((56 mm)³-(50.5 mm)³) = 62437.833 mm³

then we have

V = (83 N/mm²)*(11 mm)*(2615942.11 mm⁴) / (62437.833 mm³)

⇒ V = 2942.255 N

Finally Pmax = V = 38251.73 N
