- The creep strain rate of a polymer (in “Hz”) is given by where T is the temperature and Q = 100. kJ/mol is the activation energy. How long t will it take for a rod of this polymer to extend from 10. mm to 15 mm at 100. °C?arrow_forwardCreep compliance J(t) An amorphous polymer has Tg = 100 °C. A creep modulus of 1/J = 1 GPa was measured after t₁ = 1 h at T₁ = 90 °C. Suppose that log 10 a (T) = 17.5(T-Tg) 52+(T-Tg) 1 for this material.

A constant wall heat flux of 28 W is applied. Local density and isobaric heat capacity are obtained through from the Benedict–Webb–Rubin equation of state, with a 3% increase in heat capacity to account for wall sorption. Dynamic viscosity is obtained using the Green-Kubo relation with a given integral value of 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ Pa².s, and thermal conductivity is assumed constant. The local Nusselt number is corrected for thermal development using Nu(x) = 3.66 + (0.065 · Gz(x)^0.7) / (1 + 0.04 · Gz(x)^0.7), where Gz(x) = D · Re(x) · Pr(x) / x.

- A pilot process is being planned to produce antibiotic P. Antibiotic P is a compound secreted by microorganism A during the stationary phase. To produce P, substrate S is required. The growth of microorganism A follows the Monod equation, with a maximum specific growth rate $\mu_m = 1 h^{-1}$ and a half-saturation constant $K_s = 700\ mg/L$.The pilot process uses a chemostat with a working volume of $1000\ L$. In this chemostat, the outflow is processed to separate microorganisms, which are then concentrated tenfold and recycled. A sterile medium containing $15\ g/L$ of substrate is supplied at a flow rate of $100\ L/h$, while the recycled flow (concentrated) contains $5\ g/L$ and is also fed into the chemostat.Microorganism A yields $0.5\ g$ of biomass per $1\ g$ of substrate consumed $(Y^M_{X/S} = 0.5\ g\ A/g\ S)$, and its death rate $(k_d)$ is negligible. Additionally, $1\ g$ of microorganism A produces $0.05\ g$ of antibiotic P per hour $(q_P = 0.05 g\ P/h\cdot g\ A)$, and $1\ g$…arrow_forwardIn the production of ethyl acetate via reactive distillation, the column operates at 5 bar with an equimolar feed (ethanol + acetic acid) at 80°C.

The reflux ratio \( R \) is defined as the ratio of the liquid returned to the column to the distillate flow rate. For the ideal case, where the column operates at maximum efficiency, determine the **minimum reflux ratio** \( R_{\text{min}} \) when the relative volatility \( \alpha = 1.5 \).arrow_forward

Consider the two separate sets of measured data for a silt-loam soil measured by Mualem (1976): (1) suction versus water content, and (2) suction versus relative permeability of unsaturated soil, k/ks. Assume that 0s 0.396, 0res = 0.131, and Ks=5.74×10-7 m/s. a. Using the method of least squares in Excel, compute the best-fit values for αNG (kPa¹) and nvg for the van Genuchten (1980) relationship for data set # 1 (assume m = 1-1/nvG). See the example spreadsheet in the homework folder under the files section of Canvas for help in performing this calculation. b. Repeat part (a) and estimate the λ and ac parameters for the Brooks and Corey (1964) SWRC for data set #1. Note that you may need to include an "if" statement at the air entry suction. c.
