Concept explainers
Each person in a room is assumed to be producing carbon dioxide at the average rate of 0.0107 cfm (5.0 ml/s) and air with a CO2 concentration of 280 ppm is being supplied to the room at the rate of 6000 cfm (2.8 m3/s). It is desired to keep the concentration level of CO2 in the space below 1000 ppm. Assuming complete mixing, determine how many persons could occupy the room and not exceed the desired CO2 level.

- Identify the state of the fluid: Ammonia at 120kPa, with a specific enthalpy of 35 kJ/kgarrow_forwardA two compartment vessel contains fluids in each sectio. For the first compartment the fluid density is 1235.4 kg/m3 and for the second 592.4 kg/m3 . The partition is removed allowing the fluids to mix. Determine the specific gravity of the mixture if the fluid masses are equalarrow_forwardThe equipment room housing the compressor and condenser of a refrigerant ammonia system has dimensions 5 by 4 by 3 m at 1 bar room pressure. Calculate the maximum volume of the refrigerant in m3 which would have to escape into the space to cause a toxic concentration for a 1/2-h exposure.arrow_forward
- In a steam boiler with a volume of 2 m3, there is a mixture of saturated liquid steam and water at 200 kPa pressure. Since 20% of the boiler volume is liquid and 80% is steam, calculate a- Temperature b- Total mass c- Degree of dryness d- Specific volume e- Enthalpy of the mixture.arrow_forward150 grams of water are mixed with 150 grams of another fluid (800 kg/m3). What is the specific volume of the resulting mixture? Assume that volumes are additive and the mixture is homogenous.arrow_forwardIf the temperature of the air is 30ºC and the substance cools from 100ºC to 60ºC in 25 minutes, identify the time when the temperature will be 40ºC.arrow_forward
- In a paint manufacturing process, two different colored paints are being mixed in an infinitelylarge drum.Paint A, with a concentration of 30% pigment, is pumped into the drum at a rate of 10 liters perminute.Paint B, with a concentration of 17% pigment, is pumped into the drum at a rate of 17 liters perminute.Both paints have the same density of 1.0 kg/liter.If the mixture is continuously stirrred and drained from the drum at a rate of 22 liters perminute, what is the concentration of pigment in the resulting mixture as a percentage?arrow_forwardharrow_forwardCarbon dioxide and oxygen is placed each inside a 1 m^3 tank separated by an isolation valve. Initially, carbon dioxide has the following properties: P=20 kPag & T=25 degrees celsius and that oxygen has the following properties: P=30 kPag & T=75 degrees celsius. If heat is being prevented to escape in the outside surroundings, determine the resulting temperature of the mixture if it is found that after opening the isolation valve, the resulting presure on both tank if 25 kPag.arrow_forward
- Calculate the specific volume of an air vapor mixture in cubic meter per kilogram of dry air when the following condition prevail: t=31.9 degree celsius, SH=0.15kg/kg, and Pt=92.5Kpa.arrow_forward1. If you place 10.0 L of methanol (CH4O) in a sealed room that is 4.75 m long, 2.5 m wide, and 2.5 m high, will all the methanol evaporate? If some liquid remains, how much will there be? The vapor pressure of methanol is 127 torr at 25 °C, and the density of the liquid at this temperature is 0.791 g/mL. Treat the room dimensions as exact numbers.arrow_forwardProblem 4: A supply line contains a two-phase mixture of steam and water at 240 °C. To determine the quality of the mixture a device called a throttling calorimeter is used. In this device a small sample of the two-phase mixture is bled off the line and expanded through a throttling valve to atmospheric pressure (100 kPa). The temperature of the steam sample, T2, is measured on the downstream side of the valve. Find the quality of the mixture in the supply line for the following two cases: a. T2 = 125 °C. b. T2 = 150 °C. (Note that the two samples are superheated vapor because at the given temperatures, the temperature is above the boiling temperature for water at 100 kPa.) Steam - Water T, = 240 C Calorimeter P= 100 kPa Supply Line Flowarrow_forward
