Consider a sheet of Iron which is maintained in an atmosphere filled with nitrogen and is permitted to achieve and steady state diffuseion. The thickness of the sheet is 6.5mm. The diffusion coefficient of nitrogen in iron is 1.9 × 10 -11 m 2 /s at 675 0 C.
A membrane is to be manufactured to the following specifications. At 700°C the leak rate of
hydrogen at steady state is not to exceed 103 mol cm2 hr' when the concentrations of
hydrogen are maintained at Chigh = 7.7 × 1019 atoms cm³ on one side of the membrane and Clow
effectively zero on the other side. Determine the minimum thickness, {, of iron foil that will
meet these requirements. The diffusion coefficient of atomic hydrogen in iron, DH, at 700°C is
3.091x104 cm? s. Express your answer in units of cm.
An old single storey, 500 m home with an air exchange rate of 0.6 ach, uses a gas oven for
cooking. This gas range is the only source of CO for the home and ambient outdoor
concentrations can be considered negligible. Cooking has commenced from 12 noon on
Christmas day using both the oven and four burners for four straight hours. Assuming that
the air is well mixed estimate the concentration in the home at 2 pm, 4 pm and again at 8
pm? Explain how these answers would change citing a relevant model equation if the
ventilation rate were 0.3 ach.

The pellets adsorb 97.0% of the water and none of the other constituents of the air.The column packing was initially dry and had a mass of 3.40 kg. Following 5.0 hours ofoperation, the pellets are reweighed and found to have a mass of 3.54 kg. Calculate the molarflow rate (mol/h) of the feed gas and the mole fraction of water vapor in the product gas.
