Question
A sample stream of dry gas is being withdrawn from a stack. The stack gases are at 200oC and 730 mm Hg. The stream flows through a heated filter, a set of cooled impingers, a small air pump, and then through u How meter, as shown in Figure 1.5« The rate of flow is determined to be 30.0 litors/miuute at 20 °C and 790 mm Hg. If 1.42 mg of solid particles are collected on the filler in 30 minutes, calculate the concentration of particles in the stack gas (in Pg/m3}.

In the current process, air containing 1.0 mol% water vapor (species A) at 40°C and 1.0 atm enters the tube of 3.0 cm inner diameter at a velocity of 300 cm/s. A water- adsorbent material saturated with liquid water lines the inner surface of the tube. Water evaporates from this liner material as over it. There is no diffusion resistance of water vapor air passes Water adsorbent liner (1.0 mm thick, 0.6 g H,O/cm³ liner initially) Gas stream V =300 cm/sec D = 3.0 cm (tube) 1.0 atm, 40°C CA2 L = 8.0 m %3D through the liner material itself. The process is maintained at 40°C. The saturation vapor pressure of water is 55.4 mmHg at 40°C, At this temperature and 1.0 atm, the viscosity of air is 1.91 x 10¬4 g/cm · s and the density of air is 1.13x 10-3 g/cm³. a.

The paint contains a volatile solvent. To dry the pellet, a 300 K and 1.013 × 105 Pa air stream flows around it with a bulk velocity of 1 m/s. The estimated loading of the solvent in the wet paint is 0.12 g solvent/cm³.

One such ele- ment is a chip, 4 mm X 4 mm, located 120 mm from the leading edge of the board. Experiments have revealed that flow over the board is disturbed by the elements and that convection heat transfer is correlated by an expression of the form Nu,= 0.04 Re0.85 P.1/3 V.
