Lab scale tests performed on a cell broth with a viscosity of 5cP gave a specific cake resistance of 1 x1011 cm/g and a negligib

le medium resistance. The cake solids (dry basis) per volume of filtrate was 20 g/liter. It is desired to operate a larger rotary vacuum filter (diameter 8 m and length 12 m) at a vacuum pressure of 80 kPA with a cake formation time of 20 s and a cycle time of 60 s. Determine the filtration rate in volumes/hr expected for the rotary vacuum filter.

Answer:

5.118 m^3/hr

Explanation:

Given data:

viscosity of cell broth = 5cP

cake resistance = 1*1011 cm/g

dry basis per volume of filtrate = 20 g/liter

Diameter = 8m ,  Length = 12m

vacuum pressure = 80 kpa

cake formation time = 20 s

cycle time = 60 s

<u>Determine the filtration rate in volumes/hr  expected fir the rotary vacuum filter</u>

attached below is a detailed solution of the question

Hence The filtration rate in volumes/hr expected for the rotary vacuum filter

V' = ( \frac{60}{20} ) * 1706.0670

   = 5118.201 liters  ≈ 5.118 m^3/hr

An experiment to determine the convection coefficient associated with airflow over the surface of a thick stainless steel castin
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

h = 375 KW/m^2K

Explanation:

Given:

Thermo-couple distances: L_1 = 10 mm , L_2 = 20 mm

steel thermal conductivity k = 15 W / mK

Thermo-couple temperature measurements: T_1 = 50 C , T_2 = 40 C

Air Temp T_∞ = 100 C

Assuming there are no other energy sources, energy balance equation is:

                                               E_in = E_out

                                        q"_cond = q"_conv

Since, its a case 1-D steady state conduction, the total heat transfer rate can be found from Fourier's Law for surfaces 1 and 2

q"_cond = k * (T_1 - T_2) / (L_2 - L_1) = 15 * (50 - 40) / (0.02 - 0.01)

=15KW/m^2

Assuming SS is solid, temperature at the surface exposed to air will be 60 C since its gradient is linear in the case of conduction, and there are two temperatures given in the problem. Convection coefficient can be found from Newton's Law of cooling:

q"_conv = h * ( T_∞  - T_s ) ----> h = q"_conv / ( T_∞  - T_s )

                                                   h = 15000 W / (100 - 60 ) C = 375 KW/m^2K

3. A 4-m × 5-m × 7-m room is heated by the radiator of a steam-heating system. The steam radiator transfers heat at a rate of 10
Natali [406]

Answer:

14.52 minutes

<u>OR</u>

14 minutes and 31 seconds

Explanation:

Let's first start by mentioning the specific heat of air at constant volume. We consider constant volume and NOT constant pressure because the volume of the room remains constant while pressure may vary.

Specific heat at constant volume at 27°C = 0.718 kJ/kg*K

Initial temperature of room (in kelvin) = 283.15 K

Final temperature (required) of room = 293.15 K

Mass of air in room= volume * density= (4 * 5 * 7) * (1.204 kg/m3) = 168.56kg

Heat required at constant volume: 0.718 * (change in temp) * (mass of air)

Heat required = 0.718 * (293.15 - 283.15) * (168.56) = 1,210.26 kJ

Time taken for temperature rise: heat required / (rate of heat change)

Where rate of heat change = 10000 - 5000 = 5000 kJ/hr

Time taken = 1210.26 / 5000 = 0.24205 hours

Converted to minutes = 0.24205 * 60 = 14.52 minutes

Nata [24]

<u>Explanation</u>:

For series

\Delta V=V_{1}+V_{2}+\ldots+V_{n}=I R_{1}+I R_{2}+\ldots+I R_{n}(\text {voltages add to the batter } y)

\(I=I_{1}=I_{2}=I_{n}\) (current is the same)

V=I R(\text {voltage is directly proportional to } R)

R_{e q}=R_{1}+R_{2}+\ldots+R_{n} \quad \text { (resistance increase) }

For parallel

\Delta V=\Delta V_{1}=\Delta V_{2}=\Delta V_{n} \quad(\text { same voltage })

I=I_{1}+I_{2}+\ldots+I_{n}(\text {current adds})

\(I=\frac{\Delta V}{R_{e q}} \quad(R \text { inversal } y \text { proportional to } I)\)

\frac{1}{R_{e q}}=\frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}+\ldots+\frac{1}{R_{n}}
