Chapter 2, Problem 2.40P

A hygrometer, which measures the amount of moisture in a gas stream, is to be calibrated using the apparatus shown here:

Chapter 2, Problem 2.40P, A hygrometer, which measures the amount of moisture in a gas stream, is to be calibrated using the

Steam and dry air are fed at known flow rates and mixed to form a gas stream with a known water content, and the hygrometer reading is recorded; the flow rate of either the water or the air is changed to produce a stream with a different water content and the new reading is recorded, and so on. The following data are taken:

    Mass Fraction of Water, y Hygrometer Reading, R
    0.011 5
    0.044 20
    0.083 40
    0.126 60
    0.170 80

  1. Draw a calibration curse and determine an equation for y(R).
  2. Suppose a sample of a stack gas is inserted in the sample chamber of the hygrometer and a reading of R = 43 is obtained. If the mass flow rate of the stack gas is 1200 kg/h, what is the mass flow rate of water vapor in the gas?

Q2] The reaction AR + S is irreversible and first order. It is conducted in a PFR with 50 tubes, each with 0.5 in diameter and 1.0 m of height. 200 kg/h of reactant A (MW-80 g/gmol) with 30% inert is introduced at a pressure of 50 atm at 500°C. The output conversion is 80%. Calculate the average residence time.
