- Air with (μair = 2.27*10-5 pa.s, T = 394.3 K, M.wt of air = 28.97), flows through a packed bed of cylinders having a diameter of 0.03 m, and length the same as the diameter. The bed void fraction is 0.45 and the length of the packed bed is 4 m. The air enters the bed at 1.5 atm abs at the rate of 3.5 kg/m .s based on the empty cross section of the bed. Calculate the pressure drop of air in the bed.

Air enters a turbine operating at steady state at 10 bar, 1200 K and expands to 0.8 bar. The turbine is well insulated, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. Assuming ideal gas behavior for the air, what is the maximum theoretical work that could be developed by the turbine in kJ per kg of air flow?

A 10 L adiabatic container contains 0.1 mol of air, at a temperature of 250 K. It is closed by a stopcock. Ambient air is at 300 K at a pressure of 1 bar. The stopcock is opened for a moment and a certain amount of air penetrates into the container. After thermal equilibrium is reached inside the container, the gas temperature is measured to be 350 K. 1) Assuming that the air behaves as an ideal gas, find the...

Air is cooled from 300 K to 273 K as it flows steadily through a duct. Frictional dissipation may be neglected. Cooling is achieved by removing heat via a heat pump. The work requirement is 1.15 times that of a reversible heat pump operating between 263 and 310 K. For each mole of air flowing through the duct, calculate: Air can be assumed an ideal gas with a constant heat capacity cP of 3.50R. The temperature of the surroundings is...
