A large stream with a velocity of 0.85 m/s, saturated with oxygen, has a reoxygenation constant k2 = 0.4 day−1 and a temperature of T = 12oC, with an ultimate BOD = 13.6 mg/L and a flow rate Q = 2.2 m3 /s. Into this stream flows a wastewater stream with a flow rate of 0.5 m3/s, T = 26oC, L = 220 mg/L and oxygen level = 1.5 mg/L. Downstream the deoxygenation constant is k1 = 0.2 day−1 .

a) What is the dissolved oxygen 48.3 km downstream?

b) What will be the minimum dissolved oxygen? And at what distance from the outfall?

An airplane is flying at a constant horizontal velocity of 184.5 m/s and drops a rocket. The rocket falls for 10.24 s without air resistance and under the influence of gravity only, and then fires its thrusters. From the moment the thrusters are one, the rocket has a net acceleration of 5.481 direscted 30.21 degrees above the horizontal. How far apart are the plane and the rocket when the rocket passes back through the cruising altitude of the plane?

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...
