Chapter 10, Problem 10.2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The change in entropy should be determined for the mixture of nitrogen and argon gases kept in separate vessels, when the partition is removed. The gases should be assumed to be ideal and they mix adiabatically and completely.

Concept introduction:

The given systems mix adiabatically which means that there will be no change in heat of the system. Hence, if q1 is heat of vessel 1 and q2is heat of vessel 2 then,

q1+q2=0

It means that,

Heat lost by the argon system= Heat gained by the nitrogen system.

Now, total change in entropy is identified by the addition of all changes in entropy for all paths.

Water at 60° F is being pumped from a stream to a reservoir whose surface is 210 ft above the pump. The pipe from the pump to the reservoir is an 8-in Schedule 40 steel pipe 2500 ft long. The pressure at the pump inlet is - 2,36 psig. If 4.00 ft³/s is being pumped,   a). Compute the pressure at the outlet of the pump. Answer: 0,997 MPa   b). Compute the power delivered by the pump to the water. Answer: 151 hp   Consider the friction loss in the discharged line, but neglect other losses
1. Consider a mixture of 2.5.0% ethane, 2.0% butane, and 1.7% n-pentane by volume.a. Estimate the LFL and UFL of the mixture. Is it flammable?b. Estimate the LOC for this mixture.
Estimate the LFL and UFL for propylene using Equations 6-10 and 6-11 in the textbook,and compare these to the experimental values given in the table in Appendix B.
