I am currently pursuing my chemical engineering degree. I want to know, if i want work in chemical industry in future, what are the most important Subject (specific topic) / concept which are important from industry perspective (list them). Also list some of most important book that every chemical engineer should have. Thankyou!!

Explain the applications of the solid/vapor equilibrium.

Air at a temperature of 20 0C and 750 mm Hg has a relative humidity of 80%. Calculate,

(i)The molal humidity of the air

(ii)The molal humidity of this air if its temperature is reduced to 10 °C and pressure increased to 2000 mm Hg condensing out some of the water

(iii)Weight of water condensed from 1000 litre of the original wet air

Vapour pressure of water at 20 °C = 17.5 mm Hg

Vapour pressure of water at 10 °C = 9.2 mm Hg

A mixture of 85% n-heptane, remaining cyclohexane gas at 1 bar and 308 K is compressed to a final state at 1443.47 K and 64.475 bar. Estimate the enthalpy and entropy changes for the process using residual properties and by the Lee/Kessler correlations. In its initial state, the system may be assumed an ideal gas.

A mixture of 85% n-heptane, remaining methanol gas at 1 bar and 308 K is compressed to a final state at 1220.04 K and 113.575 bar. Estimate the enthalpy and entropy changes for the process using residual properties and by the Lee/Kessler correlations. In its initial state, the system may be assumed an ideal gas.

What do you think of the materials used in Smartphones?

You must write one paragraph, with a topic sentence and supporting ideas, and citations and an APA reference list.

Question 1. Estimating the time of a victim’s death during homicide investigations is a complex problem that cannot be solved by analysising simple equations or functions of one variable. However, many mathematical texts examine time of death estimation based around analysis of Newton’s Law of Cooling. Such analysis is based on implicit simplifying assumptions that: the only dependent variable of interest in determining the time of death is the victim’s body temperature, T(t); the victim’s baseline body temperature when alive, T0, is known; and the air temperature of the victim’s surroundings, Ts, is constant. Here we will examine such a problem.
(a) Assume that immediately following death, a victim’s body begins to cool from a standard healthy body temperature of 37◦ Celsius. Further, assume that experimental work has determined that the rate constant in Newton’s Law of Cooling for a human body is approximately k = 0.1947 when time t is measured in hours. Determine a function derived from Newton’s Law of Cooling, T(t), that models the temperature of a victim’s body t hours after death, assuming that the temperature of the body’s surroundings is a constant 15.5◦ Celsius.

(b) If the temperature of the victim’s body is now 22.2◦, how long ago was their time of death?

(c) If the victim’s body temperature at death had instead been 36.3◦ Celsius (within the range of normal body temperatures for a healthy adult), what time of death would be estimated via a Newton’s Law of Cooling model? By what duration does this estimate differ to the time that you determined in part (b)?

(d) In reality, how might the modelling assumptions made to address this problem be violated?

The diffusion of a molecule in a tissue is studied by measuring the uptake of labeled protein into the tissue of thickness L =149.4 um. Initially, there is no labeled protein in the tissue. At t=0, the tissue is placed in a solution with a molecular concentration of C1=1.2 uM, so the surface concentration at x=0 is maintained at C1. Assume the tissue can be treated as a semi-infinite medium. Surface area of the tissue is A = 93.9 cm2. Calculate the uptake of the labeled protein M by the tissue over 100 s.Please give your answer with a unit of pmol. Assuming the diffusion coefficient is known of D=1*10-9 cm2/s

Problem 2. : A superheated steam at 20 bars and 500^oC is fed to a turbine to generate electricity with a capacity of output of work at 500 kJ/kg. The existing steam is a saturated vapor at 2 bars.

What is the equation for boil-up rate?

Fluid X is flowing in a circular pipe with a constant velocity ν (m/s). The fluid is cooled by a jacket kept at constant temperature, Tj. Fluid velocity is plug shaped , in other words uniform at radial positions. Assume that temperature is uniform in radial positions because of turbulent flow conditions; ρ and Cp of the fluid are constants. The inlet temperature (at z=0) is constant and uniform at To (To>Tj). Assume that thermal conduction of heat along the z axis is small relative to convection. Heat transfer film coeffiecient h is given as 40 (J/m2.°C.s).
