A fuel distributor supplies four liquid fuels, each of which has a different ratio of ethanol to gasoline.
Five percent of the demand is for E100 (pure ethanol), 15% for E85 (85.0 volume% ethanol), 40% for E10 (10.0% ethanol), and the remainder for pure gasoline. The distributor blends gasoline and ethanol to produce E85 and E10, and the four products are produced continuously.
- Draw and label a flowchart for the blending operation, letting V represent the combined volumetric flow rate of all four fuels and VGand VE represent the volumetric flow rates of gasoline and ethanol sold as fuels and sent to the blending operation.

- and the viscosity of the water is 1.24 × 104 Nsm 2. Answer: Slug flow 1. Determine the range of mean density of a mixture of air in a 50:50 oil-water liquid phase across a range of gas void fractions. The den- sity of oil is 900 kgm³, water is 1000 kgm³, and gas is 10 kgm³.arrow_forwardA chemical reaction takes place in a container of cross-sectional area 50.0 cm2. As a result of the reaction, a piston is pushed out through 15 cm against an external pressure of 121 kPa. Calculate the work done (in J) by the system.arrow_forwardExample 7.2 Steam is generated in a high pressure boiler containing tubes 2.5 m long and 12.5 mm internal diameter. The wall roughness is 0.005 mm. Water enters the tubes at a pressure of 55.05 bar and a temperature of 270°C, and the water flow rate through each tube is 500 kg/h. Each tube is heated uniformly at a rate of 50 kW. Calle (a) Estimate the pressure drop across each tube (neglecting end effects) using (i) the homogeneous flow model and (ii) the Martinelli-Nelson correlation. (b) How should the calculation be modified if the inlet temperature were 230°C at the same pressure?arrow_forward
