A particulate sample in an air stream is represented by the following weight percent distribution: 5micrometers, 10%; 10 micrometers, 20%, 40 micrometers, 40%, 70 micrometers, 20%; 100 micrometers, 10 percent. A cyclone seperator is employed on the basis of the following data: inlet width, 12 inches; effective turns, 4; inlet gas velocity, 20ft/s; particle density, 1.6 g/cm3; gas density, 0.074 lb/ft3, gas viscosity, 0.045 lb/ft hr. Estimate the percentage of the total weight removed in the cyclone. b) If the volume flow rate is double, all other parameters remaining the same, estimate the percent total weight removed

Il Consider the capability of a process that puts pressurized grease in an aerosol can. The design specification calls for an average of 50 pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure in each can with an upper tolerance limit of 56psi and a lower tolerance limit of 46psi. A sample is taken from production, and it is found that the cans average 51psi with a standard deviation of 2psi. Find the following unknowns. 1. Capability Index (Cpk) 2. Is the process capable at the 30 level? 3. What is the probability of producing a defect? Hind: use the standard normal table as seen below.

Total suspended particulate matter concentration in ambient air is to be measured using a high- volume sampler. The filter used for this purpose had an initial dry weight of 9.787 g. The filter was mounted in the sampler and the initial air flow rate through the filter was set at 1.5 m³/min. Sampling continued for 24 hours. The airflow after 24 hours was measured to be 1.4 m³/min. The dry weight of the filter paper after 24 hours sampling was 10.283 g. Assuming a linear decline in the air flow rate during sampling, what is the 24 hour average TSP concentration in the ambient air(in 10-6 g/m³?
