Chapter 7, Problem 7.49P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The temperature of the superheated steam is to be calculated immediately after the rapid adiabatic expansion.

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 particular species, energy or momentum) is balanced and can be written as:

input+generation-output-consumpumtion=accumulation

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 equation for energy balance is:

ΔH˙+ΔE˙k+ΔE˙p=Q˙W˙s   ....... (1)

Here, ΔH˙ is the rate of change in the enthalpy of the system, ΔE˙k is the rate of kinetic energy change of the system, ΔE˙p is the rate of potential energy change of the system, Q˙ is the net rate at which energy is transferred to a system and W˙s is the rate at which energy is transferred as shaft work.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The observation about the formation of the white plume and the estimated temperature at this point is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Saturated steam is the steam vaporized with little heat at its boiling point. Above this saturation temperature, the steam becomes superheated.

When steam at higher temperature is cooled rapidly in contact with a surface then the formation of tiny water droplets takes place on that surface which is called mist.

Ex. HW. A vertical glass tube, 2cm ID & 5m long in heated uniformly over its length. The water enter at (200-204 C) & 68.9 bar calculated the pressure drop if the flowrate 0.15 Kg/s & the power applied as a heat to the fluid is 100KW using the homogeneous model. Given that enthalpy at inlet temp.=0.87MJ/Kg, enthalpy saturation temp (285C)=1.26 MJ/Kg and μl=0.972*10-4 Ns/m2, μG=2.89*10-5 Ns/m2, UG=2.515*10-2m3/Kg and the change in UG over range of pressure=-4.45*10-4m3/Kg/bar.
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 kgm. 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
