Chapter 11, Problem 25EP
To reduce the drag coefficient and thus to improve the fuel efficiency, the frontal area of a car is to be reduced. Determine the amount of fuel and money saved per year as a result of reducing the frontal area from 20 to 13 ft2. Assume the car is driven 12.000 mi a year at an average speed of 55 mi/h. Take the density and price of gasoline to be 50 Ibm/ft3 and $3.10/gal, respectively; the density of air to be 0.075 Ibm ft3, the heating value of gasoline to be 20.000 Btu/Ibm: and the overall efficiency of the drive train to be 30 percent.

- 2. Consider a polymeric membrane within a 6 cm diameter stirred ultrafiltration cell. The membrane is 30 μm thick. The membrane has pores equivalent in size to a spherical molecule with a molecular weight of 100,000, a porosity of 80%, and a tortuosity of 2.5. On the feed side of the membrane, we have a solution containing a protein at a concentration of 8 g L-1 with these properties: a = 3 nm and DAB = 6.0 × 10-7 cm² s¹. The solution viscosity is 1 cP. The hydrodynamic pressure on the protein side of the membrane is 20 pounds per square inch (psi) higher than on the filtrate side of the membrane. Assume that the hydrodynamic pressure difference is much larger than the osmotic pressure difference (advection >> diffusion). Determine the convective flow rate of the solution across the membrane.arrow_forward1. Calculate the filtration flow rate (cm³ s¹) of a pure fluid across a 100 cm² membrane.

The pores run straight through the membrane and these pores have a radius of 0.225 μm. The pressure drop applied across the membrane is 75 psi.

Tong and Anderson (1996) obtained for BSA the following data in a polyacrylamide gel for the partition coefficient (K) as a function of the gel volume fraction (4).
