Before entering the engine of a BMW320D, air drawn in at 20°C and atmospheric pressure enters the compressor of a turbocharger at a rate of 120 litres per minute. The inlet pipe to the compressor has an internal diameter of 18 mm, the outlet pipe of the compressor has an internal diameter of 26 mm and is axially aligned with the inlet pipe. The compressor raises the pressure and temperature of the exiting air to 4 bar (absolute) and 161°C.

Two streams of air and oxygen flowing at 3.5 m³/s and 2 m³/s respectively are fed into a pipe that expands suddenly. The pipe's internal diameter is 20 cm at both gases' inlets and 50 cm at the outlet. The density of the air entering is 1.5 kg/m³ and that of oxygen at the inlet is 1.2 kg/m³. The exit stream has a temperature of 60°C and 100 kPa. Assume steady-state operations and air and oxygen behaving as ideal gases. Calculate the velocity inlet for both air and oxygen streams and the velocity outlet of the pipe. Assume: R= 0.287 J/g.K

The compressed air requirements of a textile factory are met by a large compressor that draws in 0.6 m/s air at atmospheric conditions of 20°C and 1 bar (100 kPa) and consumes 300 kW electric power when operating. Air is compressed to a gage pressure of 8 bar (absolute pressure of 900 kPa), and compressed air is transported to the production area through a 30-cm- internal-diameter, 83-m-long, galvanized steel pipe with a surface roughness of 0.15 mm. The average temperature of compressed air in the pipe is 60°C. The compressed air line has 8 elbows with a loss coefficient of 0.6 each. If the compressor efficiency is 76 percent, determine the power wasted in the transportation line. The roughness of a galvanized steel pipe is given to be ɛ = 0.00015 m. The dynamic viscosity of air at 60°C is u= 2.008 x 10° kg/m-s, and it is independent of pressure. The density of air listed in that table is for 1 atm.
