Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The transfer function H(s)Qi(s) for both the tanks is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

For chemical processes, dynamic models consisting of ordinary differential equations are derived through unsteady-state conservation laws. These laws generally include mass and energy balances.

The process models generally include algebraic relationships which commence from thermodynamics, transport phenomena, chemical kinetics, and physical properties of the processes.

The difference in the actual variable (y) and the original variable (y¯) is known as the deviation variable (y) .It is generally used while modeling a process. Mathematically it is defined as:

y=yy¯

In the steady-state process, the accumulation in the process is taken as zero.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The transient response of h(t) for both the tanks is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

For chemical processes, dynamic models consisting of ordinary differential equations are derived through unsteady-state conservation laws. These laws generally include mass and energy balances.

The process models generally include algebraic relationships which commence from thermodynamics, transport phenomena, chemical kinetics, and physical properties of the processes.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The new steady-state levels for both the systems are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

For chemical processes, dynamic models consisting of ordinary differential equations are derived through unsteady-state conservation laws. These laws generally include mass and energy balances.

The process models generally include algebraic relationships which commence from thermodynamics, transport phenomena, chemical kinetics, and physical properties of the processes.

For a large value of time, the asymptotic value of y(t) can be calculated using Final Value theorem (FVM) as shown below:

limty(t)=lims0[sY(s)]

This theorem is applicable only if lims0[sY(s)] exists for all values of Re(s)0.

Interpretation Introduction

The tank that will overflow first and the time of overflow is to be determined.

A mixture of oil and gas flows through a horizontal pipe with an inside diameter of 150 mm. The respective volumetric flow rates for the oil and gas are 0.015 and 0.29 m³s-1. Determine the gas void frac- tion and the average velocities of the oil and gas. The friction factor may be assumed to be 0.0045. The gas has a density of 2.4 kgm³ and viscosity of 1 x 10-5 Nsm-2. The oil has a density of 810 kgm³ and density of 0.82 Nsm². Answer: 0.79, 20.8 ms-1, 4 ms-1
4. An experimental test rig is used to examine two-phase flow regimes in horizontal pipelines. A particular experiment involved uses air and water at a temperature of 25°C, which flow through a horizontal glass tube with an internal diameter of 25.4 mm and a length of 40 m. Water is admitted at a controlled rate of 0.026 kgs at one end and air at a rate of 5 x 104 kgs in the same direction. The density of water is 1000 kgm³, and the density of air is 1.2 kgm3. Determine the mass flow rate, the mean density, gas void fraction, and the superficial velocities of the air and water. Answer: 0.02605 kgs 1, 61.1 kgm³, 0.94, 0.822 ms-1, 0.051 ms-1
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. 2. Describe, with the use of sketches, the various flow regimes that can exist in a vertical pipe carrying two-phase flow (liquid and gas).
