Interpretation:
The flowrate of the given process is to be drawn and labelled. Also, the given expressions are to be derived.
Concept introduction:
A flowchart is the complete representation of a process through boxes or other shapes which represents process units and arrows that represents the input and output of the process. The flowchart must be fully labelled to infer important data about the process involved.
In a system, a conserved quantity (total mass, mass of a species, energy or momentum) is balanced and can be written as
Here, ‘input’ is the stream which enters the system. ‘generation’ is the term used for the quantity that is produced within the system. ‘output’ is the stream which leaves the system. ‘consumption’ is the term used for the quantity that is consumed within the system. ‘accumulation’ is used for the quantity which is builds up within the system.
All the equations which are formed are then solved simultaneously to calculate the values of the unknown variables.
The formula for the fractional conversion
Dew-point temperature is the temperature at which the first drop of liquid appears when a vapor is cooled slowly at the constant pressure. At this point the condensation starts.
Solvent vapor recovery from a gas stream is done by condensation of the solvent vapor. This can be achieved by cooling the gas mixture, compressing it, or the combination of these two operations. More is the compression of the gas; less is the cooling requirement.
For a system containing one condensable gas, the applicable Raoult’s law equation is

Concept introduction:
When a space, substance, or system is cooled below its ambient temperature and the excess heat removed from it is rejected to a high-temperature reservoir, then the process is known as Refrigeration.
Compression is the process in which the pressure of a gas is increased, and its volume is decreased. This leads to the phase change of the gas from vapor to liquid.

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. Plot the data for the SWRC versus the fitted van Genuchten (1980) and Brooks and Corey (1964) curves. Which relationship matches the capillary pressure data better (BC or VG)?

- 1. (20 points) Steam (6000 kg/h, 10 bar, 400°C) is passed through an adiabatic turbine that drives a shaft to generate power. The steam leaving the turbine is at 0.5 bar and passes to a chiller where heat is removed at the rate of 1.25 x 107 kJ/h. Saturated liquid leaves the chiller at 0.5 bar. (a) How much work (kW) is produced in the turbine? (b) What is the quality of steam leaving the turbine? Sometimes, steam produced is 'wet' in nature, and is composed of saturated water vapor and entrained water droplets. In such cases, quality is defined as the fraction of steam that is vapor.arrow_forwardWLV2 | Online teaching and × + w.com/ilrn/takeAssignment/takeCovalentActivity.do?locator-assignment-take A १ eq eq eq [Review Topics] [Referen Draw the structure of 3,3-dimethylbutanal in the window below. • In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. 985 + / $ Sn [ ] ChemDoodle ? req Submit Answer Retry Entire Group 8 more group attempts remaining req req Cengage Learning Cengage Technical Supportarrow_forwardA flat-sheet membrane of thickness, L, and surface area, S, separates two fluids (see figure).
