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). The concentration on the upstream side is maintained at C_A0 while that on the downstream side is maintained at zero. The membrane is loaded with an immobilized enzyme that converts substrate A to product B according to a zero order reaction mechanism given by:R_A=-k_0"' (d) What is the flux, N_A, at the downstream surface (z=L)? (e) Under what condition will the flux at z=L be equal to zero? (f) At the condition in (e), what can you say about the diffusion time relative to the reaction time?arrow_forward
