A student is studying a temperature-composition diagram of a binary mixture of two pure substances, Kimium and Kallosium, at 1 atm. The molar mass of Kimium and Kallosium are 80 kg/kmol and 100 kg/kmol respectively. The substances are completely miscible, without any azeotrope at 1 atm. The student has obtained the following data from the diagram.

water quality?

Write an introduction about heat exchangers and heat exchanger type (single shell pass, four tube pass shell and tube heat exchanger). Provide necessary references and citations (Harvard system).

Discuss the results that you would obtain and give reasons for the different values of the overall heat transfer coefficient and the heat transfer area, if you had to calculate the heat transfer area with and without the fouling factor. Also, include the effects of incorporating fouling factors on the final heat exchanger size and operation. Provide proper Harvard referencing with citations.

A separator divides a process stream into three phases: a liquid organic stream, a liquid aqueous stream, and a gas stream. The feed stream contains three components, all of which are present to some extent in the separated streams. The composition and flow rate of the feed stream are known. All the streams will be at the same temperature and pressure. The phase equilibria for the three phases is available. How many design variables need to be specified in order to calculate the output stream compositions and flow rates

Scientists have identified that the rate of deaths in a country can be correlated to the density of the population (#people/area), the average age and weight of the population, the average work commute and he net mass flow rate of people in & out of the country.

(a) Apply dimensional analysis to this problem and find the minimal number of dimensionless groups needed to describe and understand the available data.

(b) Discuss the findings and what conclusion may be drawn out of the analysis.

Describe how you would determine, using the van der Waals equation of state, the temperature of a real gas mixture of 3 gasses (A,B and C) given the pressure P in the container, the mass of each gas m_A, m_B, m_C, and the volume v of the container. You also have access to the critical properties (T_CA, T_CB, T_CC, P_CA, P_CB, P_CC) and molar masses (M_A, M_B, M_C,) of each gas. Use these variables and list all equations and steps in order with enough detail so someone else who has no knowledge of this course could solve the problem using your steps.

Consider the following experiment with 100 grams of a pure substance in a variable-volume cylindrical container. The base of the cylinder is 100 cm². The height of the piston from the base of the cylinder is denoted by h (cm). Therefore, the internal volume of the cylinder in cm³ is 100h. The cylinder height is slowly changed and the following data is gathered at equilibrium.

a) find the specific density of each phase

b) find the height in case 3

c) state whether the following statement is true or false: The pressures in all three cases are equal.
