Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The empirical relationship between ϕ and T should be determined.

Concept introduction:

The temperature of a system is controlled by passing cooling water through a jacket that covers the system. The system temperature (T) and the water flow rate (ϕ) through the cooling jacket is measured.

In addition, it is given that data are taken for T versus ϕ. Plots of T versus ϕ on rectangular and semi-log coordinates are distinctly curved. The possible empirical functions such as T = a ϕ + b and T = a e bϕ (a and b are constants) are not taken into consideration by the author.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Using the derive equation, the cooling water flow rates needed to maintain the process unit temperature at 85°C, 175°C and 290°C should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The temperature of a system is controlled by passing cooling water through a jacket that covers the system. The system temperature (T) and the water flow rate (ϕ) through the cooling jacket are measured and give by,

The relationship T=9677.6ϕ1.19.

Where T = system temperature and ϕ = water flow rate through the cooling jacket

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The most confidence estimate, and least confidence estimate should be explained from the three estimates in part (b).

Concept introduction:

The temperature of a system is controlled by passing cooling water through a jacket that covers the system. The system temperature (T) and the water flow rate (ϕ) through the cooling jacket are measured and give by,

The relationship is T=9677.6ϕ1.19.

Where T = system temperature and ϕ = water flow rate through the cooling jacket

A process for the microbial synthesis of 1,3-propanediol ( 3 8 2 C H O ) uses an anaerobicfermenter with a selected strain of K. pneumoniae to convert glycerol ( 3 8 3 C H O ) to 1,3-propanediol and acetic acid ( 2 4 2 C H O ). All other byproducts are of negligible concentration.The fermentation and cell growth equation can be written:3 8 3 3 4 7 2 3 8 2 2 4 2 2 2 68 3 3 49 15 15 40 C H O NH C H O N C H O C H O CO H O + → + + + +The continuous fermentation process is set up at 37°C and atmospheric pressure.Anaerobic conditions are maintained by sparging the fermentation broth with N2 at aflowrate of 500 litres per minute. The medium, containing ammonia, is fed at 500 kg perhour, and has a composition of 14% (w/w) glycerol. Suppression of the side reactions isachieved by excess glycerol, so the liquid product contains 3% (w/w) unreacted glycerol.2a. Draw a process diagram.

8-4. A pressurized-water reactor generates 70 Mw(t) in the core. The coolant-moderator mass-flow rate is 107 lbm/hr. It enters the core at 490°F. Estimate the effective thermal- neutron fission cross section in the core.
Q/ 8-17 cylindrical reactor core is 4 ft in diameter and 4.8 ft height. The maximum neutron flux is 1013. The extrapolation length are 0.186 ft in the radial direction and 0.3 ft in the axial direction. The fuel is 20% enriched UO2.0= 500 b. Determine (a) The neutron flux at the upper and lower rims, and (b) the maximum heat generated in the fuel in [MeV/s cm³] and [Btu/hr ft³).
