I am looking for a formula where I can find the relative humidity (RH) of air after being compressed. I am given the RH, input and output temperature, and input and output pressure. It is assumed that the compressed air is hotter after compression, using constant volume ideal gas law. Any help appreciated.

Read the summaries and analyses of both sides about the Cape Wind project. If the decision was in your hands, would you approve the project? Why or why not? Do you believe this level of controversy is unique to Cape Wind, or is it a preview of the challenges future wind projects will face?

  1. The water-gas shift reaction (CO + H­2O à CO2 + H­2) occurs in a series of two reactors. An equimolar mixture of steam and CO (stream 1) enters the first reactor. The product stream from the first reactor (stream 3) and an additional stream (stream 3) containing pure steam enter the second reactor. The fractional conversion of CO in the first reactor is 0.610, and the fractional conversion of CO in the second reactor is 0.790. The product stream has a water (steam) mole fraction of 0.210.

  1. Draw and fully label a PFD for the process.
  2. What is the fractional conversion of CO for the overall process?
  3. What is the ratio of the molar flow rate of stream 2 relative to the molar flow rate of stream 1?
  4. Put a box around the answers to the questions in b. and c. You will receive 5 points for answering with the correct number of significant digits.

  1. (1 Point) A sample of soils was taken by using the sand cone method. The sample was placed inside a sealed jar and the total weight jar + sample was 3.08 lbs. The empty jar had weighted 0.75 lbs. before collecting the sample. After collecting the sample, the cone and the calibrated sand bottle were placed on the plate. The sand being used was calibrated in advance and it was determined its relative density was 2.55. The density of water is 62.4 lbs./ft3. The sand was allowed to fill the excavation hole as well as the plate and cone assembly, after which the valve was closed. The calibrated sand bottle weighted 6.25 lbs. before and 3.79 lbs. after being used. During calibration at the lab, it was found that the weight of sand left inside the cone and plate assembly was 0.51 lbs. Using the “Sand Cone test Form.pdf” file provided as a template complete all the necessary calculation to estimate the volume of the excavated hole. Remember that the density of sand can be calculated by multiplying its relative density by the density of water. Please document all your calculations below the given table.

Propane burns with 15% excess air. Before the propane-air mixture enters the burner, air preheats from 32 F to 575 F. Determine the requirements of the preheater (BTU / h) if the amount of propane fed to the burner is 1.35x105 SCFH (standard cubic feet per hour)
Note: In this case, take standard conditions in the natural gas industry, such as 60 F and 1 atm.
Report: a) Flow diagram of the complete process and its table of material balance with each one of the streams, b) Q preheater.

In the Potter process, sucrose is converted to glucose and fructose:
C12H22O11 + H2O → C6H12O6 + C6H12O6
The combined glucose and fructose is called inversion sugar. Fresh feed flows at a rate of 0.5 ton/min containing 70% sucrose and 30% water by mass. The fresh feed is combined with a recycle stream so that the stream entering the reactor contains 5% inversion sugar by mass. If 87% conversion of sucrose occurs, determine:
A. the recycle stream flow
B. the concentration of inversion sugar in the recycle and product streams

The isothermal reaction of A to B is a first order reaction in A. A 5,000 liter plug flow reactor is fed with A at concentration of 4 gmol/liter and volumetric flow of 800 L/min. At these conditions the conversion of A is 95%. We have two CSTRs that are 2000 and 7000 liters and can be place in series to replace the PFR.

a. Can the two CSTR’s in series provide 95% conversion in replacement of the PFR? Select a configuration for the two CSTRs and support your conclusion with calculations.

Two continuous stirred-tank fermenters are connected in series, the first having an operational volume of 100 L and that of the second being 50 L. The feed to the first fermenter is sterile and contains 5000 mg/L of substrate, being delivered to the fermenter at 18 L/h. If the microbial growth can be described by the Monod kinetic model with µm= 0.25 h-1 and Ks = 120 mg/l. What would happen if the flow were from the 50 L fermenter to the 100 L fermenter?
