A pump is used to fill up a rectangular tank with liquid methanol solution (density 900 kg/m3 and dynamic viscosity 1.20 x 10-3 Ns/m2) through a 2.5 inch diameter pipe. The tank is 1.4 m wide, 1.6 m long and 1.2 m deep.
1. Estimate the volumetric flow rate (m3/s) in the pipe if the pump can move the methanol at a rate of 80.6 L/min through this pipe.
2. Estimate the average velocity in the pipe (m/s) if the pump moves the methanol at a rate of 1.01 x 10-3 m3/s.
3. Estimate the mass flow rate (kg/s) in the pipe if the pump moves the methanol at a rate of 1.69 x 10-3 m3/s.
4. Estimate the time to fill the tank in minutes if the pump moves the methanol at a rate of 1.10 x 10-3 m3/s.
5. Estimate the total mass (kg) of Methanol in the full tank.
6. Estimate the Reynolds number of the flow in in the pipe if the average velocity in the pipe is 0.84 m/s

Moist air enters an air-conditioning system as shown in the figure below at T1 = 28°C, ?1 = 85% and a volumetric flow rate of (AV)1 = 0.89 m3/s. At the exit of the dehumidifying section, the air is saturated, ?2 = 100%, and the condensate leaves this section at the same temperature as the moist air. At the exit of the heating section the moist air is at T3 = 24°C, ?3 = 50%. The system operates at steady state, the pressure is 1 bar at all locations, and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible.
Determine the heat transfer rate for the dehumidifying section, in kw

Assume that you have two cylindrical steel samples with 1 in diameter, one made out of AISI 1045 and another one made out of AISI 4140. You austenitize and quench both samples in oil. Then you cut a section and measure the hardness at the center of each sample. Would you expect to get the same results? Explain your answer.

A vapor-compression heat pump with a heating capacity of 500 kJ/min is driven by a power cycle with a thermal efficiency of 30%. For the heat pump, Refrigerant 134a is compressed from saturated vapor at -10°C to the condenser pressure of 10 bar. The isentropic compressor efficiency is 80%. Liquid enters the expansion valve at 9.6 bar, 34°C. For the power cycle, 80% of the heat rejected is transferred to the heated space.
