Chapter 3, Problem 3.37P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The annual release of all three species of gases due to biomass combustion and the average molecular weight of gases should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The total gas released will be equal to the sum of amount of gases released. The amount of gas can be calculated in terms of number of moles as follows:

n=mM

For mass the above equation can be rearranged as follows:

m=n×M

Here, n is number of moles, m is mass and M is molar mass.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The environmental hazards associated with CO and CO2 release and other environmental associated with biomass combustion should be listed.

Concept introduction:

Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are dangerous to inhale thus, they are considered as air pollutants. They contribute to global warming as they are greenhouse gases.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The percentage change in total CO2 emission since 1990 should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The total gas released will be equal to the sum of amount of gases released. The amount of gas can be calculated in terms of number of moles as follows:

n=mM

For mass the above equation can be rearranged as follows:

m=n×M

Here, n is number of moles, m is mass and M is molar mass.

Consider the two separate sets of measured data for a silt-loam soil measured by Mualem (1976): (1) suction versus water content, and (2) suction versus relative permeability of unsaturated soil, k/ks. Assume that 0s 0.396, 0res = 0.131, and Ks=5.74×10-7 m/s. a. Using the method of least squares in Excel, compute the best-fit values for αNG (kPa¹) and nvg for the van Genuchten (1980) relationship for data set # 1 (assume m = 1-1/nvG). See the example spreadsheet in the homework folder under the files section of Canvas for help in performing this calculation. b. Repeat part (a) and estimate the λ and ac parameters for the Brooks and Corey (1964) SWRC for data set #1. Note that you may need to include an "if" statement at the air entry suction. c. Plot the data for the SWRC versus the fitted van Genuchten (1980) and Brooks and Corey (1964) curves. Which relationship matches the capillary pressure data better (BC or VG)? Explain…
