Chapter 34, Problem 1RQ

A rich air-fuel ratio causes HC emissions to ________.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The appropriate word to fill in the blank in the statement “ A rich air-fuel causes HC emissions to _______”.

Answer to Problem 1RQ

A rich air-fuel ratio causes higher HC emissions.

Explanation of Solution

Unburned hydrocarbons are usually, vapors of gasoline that have not been burned during combustion. HC emissions illustrate that the combustion of fuel is not completed in the engine cylinder. The amount of HC depends on certain engine conditions, one of which is a rich air-fuel ratio. Whenever the mixture of air-fuel is extremely rich it causes higher HC and CO emissions.

Q2. Determine the safety factors for the bracket rod shown in Figure 2 based on both the distortion-energy theory and the maximum shear theory and compare them. Given: The material is 2024-T4 aluminum with a yield strength of 47 000 psi. The rod length /= 6 in. and arm a = 8 in. The rod outside diameter od 1.5 in., id = 1 in, h=2 in., t=0.5 in., Load F= 1000 lb. Assumptions: The load is static and the assembly is at room temperature. Consider shear due to transverse loading as well as other stresses. (Note: solve in SI units) wall tube Figure 2 arm
The question has been set up with all the cuts needed to accurately derive expressions for V(x) and M(x). Using the cuts free body diagrams set up below, derive expressions for V(x) and M(x). If you use the method of cuts then validate your answers using calculus or vice versa.
It is required to treat 130 kmol/hr of chloroform-air feed gas mixture that contains 12% chloroform. It is required to remove 93% of chloroform using 150 kmol/hr of solvent that contains 99.6% water and 0.4% chloroform. The cross sectional area of the column is 0.8 m². Calculate the column height using the following data; kx'.a = 1.35 (kmol/m³.s (Ax)), and ky'.a = 0.06 (kmol/m³.s (Ay)), kx/ky = 1.35, and the equilibrium data are: X 0 0.0133 0.033 y 0 0.01 0.0266 0.049 0.064 0.0747 0.0933 0.1053 0.0433 0.06 0.0733 0.111 0.1 0.12 0.14
