Chapter 3, Problem 3.56P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The observed manometer reading is to be calculated, if the manometer fluid is (i) mercury, (ii) water and the preferred manometer fluid is to be identified with an explanation.

Concept introduction:

For manometer fluid as mercury the net equation for pressure is written as,

ρtg(500h+Rm)=ρmgRm

For water the above equation is written as,

ρtg(500h+Rw)=ρwgRw

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

An explanation for the working of system if toluene is used as manometer fluid is to be stated and several advantages of mercury fluid over toluene is to be stated

Concept introduction:

Manometer is a device used to measure pressure of gas or vapor at low levels. It is helpful in differentiating static and dynamic pressures. Its shape may be U-tube, inverted or a single tube.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The purpose of nitrogen blanket to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Manometer is a device used to measure pressure of gas or vapor at low levels. It is helpful in differentiating static and dynamic pressures. Its shape may be U-tube, inverted or a single tube.

A steel cylinder containing compressed air is stored in a fermentation laboratory ready to provide aeration gas to a small-scale bioreactor. The capacity of the cylinder is 48 litres, the absolute pressure is 0.35 MPa and the temperature is 22°C. One day in mid-summer when the air conditioning breaks down, the temperature in the laboratory rises to 33°C and the valve at the top of the cylinder is accidentally left open. Estimate the proportion of air that will be lost. What assumptions will you make? 2 24 C.

A mixture of 80% CO2, and 20% CH4, (mass basis) is maintained at 310 K. 85 bar at which the specific volume has been measured as 0.00675 m^3 /kg. Calculate the percent deviation if the specific volume had been calculated by: a) Kay's rule; b) Compressibility factors and Amagat's law; c) What are the tables and charts you used for calculations? Assume the mixture's gas constant: Rm =mfi* Ri
