Textbook Question
Chapter 43, Problem 1SA
What is the most probable cause of a low fluid level?
Expert Solution & Answer

To determine
The probable cause of a low fluid level.
Explanation of Solution
Low fluid level can be caused due to the following reasons:
- Low fluid level can be caused by error present in the drivetrain.
- It can be caused by the presence of any cracks in the hydraulic circuit. Presence of any leakage in the gasket.
- If there is any leakage near the seals.
- Oil pan seal leakage can cause low fluid level.
- It can be caused by any leakage around the bolts and mounting.
- If there is any leakage present in extension housing.

Problem 1. For an irreversible liquid phase reaction 2A -> B, the reaction rate is of the 2nd
order with respect to the reactant concentration CA. The concentration-dependent reaction
rate is plotted below. This reaction is performed in a cascade of two identical CSTRS (same
reactor size and temperature). The inlet concentration of A of the 1st CSTR is 2 mol/L. The
outlet concentration of A of the 2nd CSTR is 1 mol/L. The inlet flow rate of the 1st reactor is
100 L/h. Please use the graphical method to determine the outlet concentration of A of the
first CSTR and the size of each CSTR. Please briefly show the procedure for reactor size
calculation.
