In a falling-film evaporator, Air at 40℃ and 50 kPa flows through a wetted-wall column with 100 mm diameter at a velocity of 5 m/s. What is the mass-transfer coefficient for the humidification of this stream by evaporation from the wet walls? If the air in this situation is 50 % saturated, and the saturation particle pressure of water vapour at 40℃ is 7375 Pa, what is the local evaporation flux in a unit of kg/m²s?
A manufacturing plant produces an efluent as a waste product. As part of a waste heat
recovery system, they want to use this for internal heating and cooling. The effluent is
flown through a system where its temperature remains at 303.15 K. A 0.06-m diameter
pipe carrying hot water and 0.04-m diameter pipe carrying cold air is passed through
this effluent chamber. It can be assumed that the surface temperature of these air and
water pipes are same as the effluent temperature. Water comes in at 328.15 K and exits
at 308.15 K. The air comes in at 268.15 K and exits at 298.15 K. The mass flow rate of
water and air is respectively, 1 kg/s and 0.01 kg/s. Determine the length of the water and
air pipes in the system. Convert all calculations to C.
Air at 25°C and atmospheric pressure flows with a velocity of 3 m/s inside a 10mm diameter tube of 1 m length. The inside surface of the tube contains a deposit of naphthalene. Determine the average mass transfer coefficient for the transfer of naphthalene from the pipe surface into the air.

- A forced-draft countercurrent water-cooling tower is to cool water from 43.3 to 26.7 degC. The air enters at the bottom of the tower at 23.9 degC with a wet bulb temperature of 21.1 degC. The value of Hg for the flow conditions is Hg=0.533 m. The heat-transfer resistance in the liquid phase will be neglected.(a) What is the effectiveness of the tower?(b) Calculate the minimum air rate that can be used.(c) Calculate the tower height if 1.5 times the minimum air rate is used.arrow_forwardRequired information The components of an electronic system dissipating 150 W are located in a 5-ft-long horizontal duct whose cross section is 6 in x 6 in. The components in the duct are cooled by forced air, which enters at 85°F at a rate of 22 cfm and leaves at 100°F. The surfaces of the sheet metal duct are not painted, and thus radiation heat transfer from the outer surfaces is negligible. The ambient air temperature is 80°F. Use the property tables to calculate the properties of air at the film temperature. Assume the fan fails and thus all heat generated inside the duct must be rejected to the ambient air by natural convection through the outer surfaces of the duct. Evaluate air properties at a film temperature of 120°F and 1 atm pressure. k = 0.01576 Btu/h-ft-°F v= 0.1923 x 10-3 ft²/s Pr = 0.723 NOTE: This is a multi-part question.

As energy is extracted from the water, it begins to freeze, creating an ice/water bath at 0°C, which may be used for air conditioning during the summer. Consider summer cooling conditions for which air is passed through an array of copper tubes, each of inside diameter D = 50 mm, submerged in the bath. (a) If air enters each tube at a mean temperature of Tm,i = 25°C and a flow rate of m·=0.01 kg/s, what tube length L is needed to provide an exit temperature of Tm,o = 14°C?
