A well-insulated tank in a vapor power plant operates at steady state. Saturated liquid water enters at inlet 1 at a rate of 125

lbm/s at 14.7 psia. Make-up water to replenish steam losses from the plant enters at inlet 2 at a rate of 10 lbm/s at 14.7 psia and 60o F. Water exits the tank at 14.7 psia. Neglect kinetic and potential energy effects, determine for the water exiting the the tank (a) the mass flow rate, in lb/s. (b) the specific enthalpy, in Btu/lb (c) the temperature, in F

Answer:

a) \dot m_{3} = 135\,\frac{lbm}{s}, b) h_{3}=168.965\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}, c) T = 200.829\,^{\textdegree}F

Explanation:

a) The tank can be modelled by the Principle of Mass Conservation:

\dot m_{1} + \dot m_{2} - \dot m_{3} = 0

The mass flow rate exiting the tank is:

\dot m_{3} = \dot m_{1} + \dot m_{2}

\dot m_{3} = 125\,\frac{lbm}{s} + 10\,\frac{lbm}{s}

\dot m_{3} = 135\,\frac{lbm}{s}

b) An expression for the specific enthalpy at outlet is derived from the First Law of Thermodynamics:

\dot m_{1}\cdot h_{1} + \dot m_{2} \cdot h_{2} - \dot m_{3}\cdot h_{3} = 0

h_{3} = \frac{\dot m_{1}\cdot h_{1}+\dot m_{2}\cdot h_{2}}{\dot m_{3}}

Properties of water are obtained from tables:

h_{1}=180.16\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}

h_{2}=28.08\,\frac{BTU}{lbm} + \left(0.01604\,\frac{ft^{3}}{lbm}\right)\cdot (14.7\,psia-0.25638\,psia)

h_{2}=29.032\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}

The specific enthalpy at outlet is:

h_{3}=\frac{(125\,\frac{lbm}{s} )\cdot (180.16\,\frac{BTU}{lbm} )+(10\,\frac{lbm}{s} )\cdot (29.032\,\frac{BTU}{lbm} )}{135\,\frac{lbm}{s} }

h_{3}=168.965\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}

c) After a quick interpolation from data availables on water tables, the final temperature is:

T = 200.829\,^{\textdegree}F

Paint can shaker mechanisms are common in paint and hardware stores. While they do a good job of mixing the paint, they are also
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

A good design for a portable device to mix paint minimizing the shaking forces and vibrations while still effectively mixing the paint. Is:

The best design is one with centripetal movement. Instead of vertical or horizontal movement. With a container and system of holding structures made of materials that could absorb the vibration effectively.

Explanation:

First of all centripetal movement would be friendlier to our objective as it would not shake the can or the machine itself with disruptive vibrations. Also, we would have to use materials with a good grade of force absorption to eradicate the transmission of the movement to the rest of the structure. Allowing the reduction of the shaking forces while maintaining it effective in the process of mixing.

A 4-L pressure cooker has an operating pressure of 175 kPa. Initially, one-half of the volume is filled with liquid and the othe
vodomira [7]

Answer:

the highest rate of heat transfer allowed is 0.9306 kW

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Volume = 4L = 0.004 m³

V_f = V_g = 0.002 m³

Using Table ( saturated water - pressure table);

at pressure p = 175 kPa;

v_f = 0.001057 m³/kg

v_g = 1.0037 m³/kg

u_f = 486.82 kJ/kg

u_g 2524.5 kJ/kg

h_g = 2700.2 kJ/kg

So the initial mass of the water;

m₁ = V_f/v_f + V_g/v_g

we substitute

m₁ = 0.002/0.001057  + 0.002/1.0037

m₁ = 1.89414 kg

Now, the final mass will be;

m₂ = V/v_g

m₂ = 0.004 / 1.0037

m₂ = 0.003985 kg

Now, mass leaving the pressure cooker is;

m_{out = m₁ - m₂

m_{out = 1.89414  - 0.003985

m_{out = 1.890155 kg

so, Initial internal energy will be;

U₁ = m_fu_f + m_gu_g

U₁ = (V_f/v_f)u_f  + (V_g/v_g)u_g

we substitute

U₁ = (0.002/0.001057)(486.82)  + (0.002/1.0037)(2524.5)

U₁ = 921.135288 + 5.030387

U₁ = 926.165675 kJ

Now, using Energy balance;

E_{in -  E_{out = ΔE_{sys

QΔt - m_{outh_{out = m₂u₂ - U₁

QΔt - m_{outh_g = m₂u_g - U₁

given that time = 75 min = 75 × 60s = 4500 sec

so we substitute

Q(4500) - ( 1.890155 × 2700.2 ) = ( 0.003985 × 2524.5 ) - 926.165675

Q(4500) - 5103.7965 = 10.06013 - 926.165675

Q(4500) = 10.06013 - 926.165675 + 5103.7965

Q(4500) = 4187.690955

Q = 4187.690955 / 4500

Q = 0.9306 kW

Therefore, the highest rate of heat transfer allowed is 0.9306 kW

jekas [21]

Complete Question

Complete Question is attached below.

Answer:

V'=5m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Diameter d=0.10m

Power P=4.0kW

Head loss \mu=10m

 \frac{P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_1^2}{2g}+Z_1+H_m=\frac{P_2}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2}{2g}+Z_2+\mu

 \frac{300*10^3}{\rho g}+35+Hm=\frac{500*10^3}{\rho g}+15+10

 H_m=(\frac{200*10^3}{1000*9.8}-10)

 H_m=10.39m

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

 P=\rho gQH_m

Therefore

 Q=\frac{P}{\rho g H_m}

 Q=\frac{4*10^4}{1000*9.81*10.9}

 Q=0.03935m^3/sec

Since

 Q=AV'

Where

 A=\pi r^2\\A=3.142 (0.05)^2

 A=7.85*10^{-3}

Therefore

 V'=\frac{0.03935m^3/sec}{7.85*10^{-3}}

 V'=5m/s
