CBE 9112, Quiz #2 Name: Student No. Gas –
liquid reactions are more efficient when the gas bubbles are smaller in size. A large cylindrical tank is to be used as a gas- liquid reactor on a continuous fashion. An engineer in charge of the reactor design has decided to use a mixer inside the reactor where the gas enters the reactor right on top of the mixer impeller so that as a result of impeller rotation the gas will be broken to very small/fine bubbles to have an efficient reaction. The product of the reaction is continuously withdrawn as shown in the Figure below using a centrifugal pump. Do you approve the design, why? (20 points) The engineer needs some help to finalize his design. Please comment on the followings. 1)
A variable speed mixer is available, and he wants to know which of the following options is the best (30 points): a.
Low RPM b.
Medium RPM c.
High speed rotation (high RPM) 2)
He does not know which type of the mixer would perform better, Turbine or Propeller type impeller. (30 points) 3)
He can mount the mixer from the top, on the side or at the bottom of the reactor, which one is the most appropriate? Please justify. (20 points) Liquid Gas Centrifugal pump Ground level Side mixer bottom mixer Reactor Baffles mixer

In April 2010, the worst oil spill ever recorded occurred when an explosion and fire on the Deepwater Horizon offshore oil-drilling rig left 11 workers dead and began releasing oil into the Gulf of Mexico. One of the attempts to contain the spill involved pumping drilling mud into the well to balance the pressure of escaping oil against a column of fluid (the mud) having a density significantly higher than those of seawater and oil.In the following problems, you may assume that seawater has a specific gravity of 1.03 and that a hypothetical subsea wellhead is 7167 ft below the surface of the Gulf.

Squeezing a Brass Sphere
A solid brass sphere is initially surrounded by air, and the air pressure exerted on it is 1.00 x 105 N/m2 (normal atmospheric
pressure). The sphere is lowered into the ocean to a depth where the pressure is 2.00 x 10' N/m2. The volume of the sphere in air
is 0.35 m³. By how much does this volume change once the sphere is submerged?
SOLUTION
Conceptualize Think about movies or television shows you have seen in which divers go to great depths in the water in
submersible vessels. These vessels must be very strong to withstand the large pressure under water. This pressure squeezes the
vessel and

5) In class, we showed that the temperature increases when gas is used to fill a tank. In
words a non-scientist and non-engineer family member or friend would understand, explain why
this happens. I encourage you to actually explain this to someone you know!

5. A human being has an average venous blood pressure of 12 mm Hg (Hg = mercury). The density of Hg (mercury) is 13,530 kg/m3. How high does a saline bag have to be raised to just barely
equal to that of the blood in the vein) of saline through a line and needle inserted into a person's vein? The density of saline is 1020

Example: H.W
Example : Pressure in A Decelerating Tank of Liquid
The tank on a trailer truck is filled completely with
gasoline, which has a specific weight of 42 lbf/ft3
(6.60 kN/m³). The truck is decelerating at a rate of
10 ft/s2 (3.05 m/s²).
(a) If the tank on the trailer is 20 ft (6.1 m) long and if the pressure at the top
rear end of the tank is atmospheric, what is the pressure at the top front?
(b) If the tank is 6 ft (1.83 m) high, what is the maximum pressure in the tank?
204
Now if the tank is assumed to be opened
find the following:
If the tank on the trailer is 20 ft (6.1 m) long and 6
ft (1.83 m) high, what is the pressure at the top
front and bottom rear? and what is the maximum
pressure in the tank? The width of truck is 2 m.

XYZ Company Ltd has consulted your firm Zig-Zag Energy over an intention to generate electricity in Ghana. Being the senior project engineer for Zig-Zag Energy, management has asked you to prepare a detailed technical report in respect to the project.
a) Discuss the major factors to take into consideration when consulting on such projects.
A tank containing air is stirred by a paddle wheel.
The work input to the paddle wheels is 2000KJ and the heat transferred to the surrounding from the tank is 6000KJ.
b) Determine the change in the internal energy of the system
There has been a sharp differences between the board of Blue-Blue Energy over which of the energy sources (hydroelectric power plant-HEP and Coal fired plant) is best for power generation. As an energy expert, you were confronted by the debating faction for your opinion. You…
