A packed tower is to be used to remove 90% of the ammonia from an air stream containing of 5% of ammonia by volume. The feed gas rate is 100 lb mol/hr at 20 °C and 1 atm. Water at 90 lb mol/hr containing no ammonia is used as a solvent and the packing is 1-inch Raschig rings. Assume the tower is isothermal at 20 °C. It is to operate a 60% of flooding. In addition, for this system m...
L 2. Steady statemass balance: Water is flowing at steady state in a 0.1 meter-diameter pipe with a maximum velocity (turbulent profile) of 0.3 meters/sec. The pipe then goes through an expansion, to where it is then flowing in a 0.5 meter-diameter pipe, and the flow regime has changed from turbulent to laminar. In the second section of pipe, calculate the velocity as (a) block flow profile (Vavg), and (b) maximum velocity in laminar flow profile? HINT: you will need...
8-31 Water at 10°C (p = 999.7 kg/m3 and μ = 1.307 × 10-3 kg/m.s) is flowing steadily in a 0.20-cm-diameter, 15-m-long pipe at an average velocity of 1.2 m/s. Determine (a) the pressure drop, (b) the head loss, and (c) the pumping power requirement to overcome this pressure drop. Answers: (a) 188 kPa, (b) 19.2 m, (c) 0.71 W 8-32 Water at 15°C (p = 999.1 kg/m3 and μ = 1.138 × 10-3 kg/m . s) is flowing steadily in a 30-m-long...
Problem 1 A duct with diameter D, surface roughness e, and length L = 1500 feet transports air with specific weight Yair = 0.0752 lbs/ft at volume flow rate of Q = 9000 ft/min. A pressure gradient of Ap/L is measured in inch of water per 1500 feet of duct. Use either a graphical method (preferred) or a numerical iteration method to fill out the table below. Show all steps. If you choose to use a graphical method, show a...

2 A paint sprayer pumps air through a constriction in a 0.025- m diameter pipe, as shown in the figure. The flow causes the pressure in the constricted area to drop and paint rises up the feed tube and enters the air stream. The speed of the air stream in the 0.025-m diameter sections is 5.00 m/s. The density of the air is 1.29 kg/m3, and the density of the paint is 1200 kg/m3. We can treat the...
1. 1.08x106 grams/h of a superheated fluid flows through a pipe in a power plant. The pipe is 1000 cm long, has an inner diameter of 0.05m and a wall thickness of 0.6 cm. The pipe has a thermal conductivity of 0.0017 kW/mK, and the inner pipe surface is at a uniform temperature of 393K. The temperature drop between the inlet and exit of the pipe is 7K, and the constant pressure specific heat of vapor is 2190 J/kgK. If...
