- A midsize steam-methane reforming plant is consuming methane at a rate of 125,000 mol/h and converting it into synthesis gas, which is a mixture of H2 and CO. The methane is being fed into the process at an absolute pressure of 233 psi and a temperature of 723 K. a.Estimate the volumetric flow rate of methane entering the steam-methane reforming facility in m3/h. (Do not assume ideal gas). b. If you could assume ideal gas, what would be the percent error between the ideal gas solution for volumetric flow rate and the solution to part a?arrow_forward21. A large containment is filled with steam, air, and nitrogen. The containment also has a pool of water, which is sprayed in the containment atmosphere. Heat is added to the con- tainment at a specified rate. Use the given data to find a) the initial containment pressure and b) the time it takes for the containment pressure to reach the pressure limit of 145 psia (1 MPa). Total mass of water (water in the pool and steam) m,, = 3.42E6 lbm (1.55E6 kg) Water-steam quality x = 0.03 Air mass m, = 0.132E6 lbm (6E4 kg) Nitrogen mass m, = 2200 lbm (998 kg) Containment initial temperature T; = 688 R (109 C) Initial relative humidity ø = 100% Rate of heat addition to containment atmosphere Q = 1.02E8 Btu/h (30 MW) [Ans.: 7.66 h].arrow_forward220arrow_forward
- Pure oxygen (O2) at high pressure is sometimes used in chemical processes instead of air to avoid the high cost of pressurizing all the N2 that inevitably comes with use of air as well as additional cost of capital equipment such as heat exchangers, reactors, etc. through which the (generally unnecessary) nitrogen flows. The decision of which to use (pure O2 or air) is based on the tradeoff between the cost of obtaining the pure O2 (via cryogenic distillation or membrane separation) versus the cost of all the unnecessary N2 running through the process. Your process utilizes O2 at -70°C and 10.2 atm absolute. If the mass flow rate of O2 is 8.0 kg/min, determine the volumetric flow rate of the O2 stream using (a) the ideal gas EOS and (b) the SRK EOS.arrow_forwardCalculate the freezing point of a 2.0m solution of NaCl in water? Remember that NaCl is an electrolyte. The normal freezing point of pure water is 0.00°C. Kf(water) =1.86°C/marrow_forwardNitrogen gas enters a 0.450 m diameter pipe at 30.0 °C, 2.60 atm (absolute), and 6.30 m/s. The pipe rises 24.0 ft and then falls 99.0 ft. The nitrogen gas exits the pipe at 30.0 °C and 1.10 atm (absolute). The ultimate goal is to find AEK and AEp in the process. Assume N₂ behaves ideally. What is V₁, the volumetric flow rate of nitrogen gas into the pipe section? V₁ = 1 What is m, the mass flow rate into the pipe? z, ft T, °C P, atm (absolute) u, m/s z, ft T₂ °C P, atm (absolute) u, m/s m³/sarrow_forward
