Consider an ideal Hampson-Linde cycle in which no heat is lost to the environment. Use the data in attached Table to calculate the fraction of nitrogen liquefied on each pass through a Hampson-Linde cycle operating between 1 bar and 100 bars, with an input temperature of 300 K. Assume that the heat exchanger works perfectly, so the temperature of the low pressure gas coming out of it is the same as the temperature of the high-pressure gas going in. Repeat the calculation for an input temperature of 200 K.

A stream of CO2 at pressure 1 bar, flowing at 10 mol/s, from 150°C to 300°C is to be heated ina counter current heat exchanger. To do this task a stream of high-pressure steam available at 40bar and 400°C is used, as shown in the following figure. The entire system is well insulated, asshown. It is undesirable for the steam to condense in the heat exchanger tubes. Assume thepressure of each stream stays constant as it flows through the heat exchangeWhat is the minimum volumetric flow rate, in m3 /s, required of the inlet steam to keep it from condensing at the exit?
