A mixer operating at steady state has two inlets and one outlet.

- At inlet 1, superheated water vapor at 2 bar and 200°C flows with an average velocity of 1m/s

- At inlet 2, saturated water with a quality of x = 0.5 at 2 bar flows with an average velocity of 1m/s

- At the outlet, saturated water with a quality of x = 0.7 flows through a pipe 5 cm in diameter.

a) Calculate the mass flow rate through the outlet pipe.

b) Calculate the rate of heat loss to the surrounding from the mixer.

Air expands through a turbine operating at steady state. At the inlet, p1 = 150 lbf/in.2, T1 = 1400°R, and at the exit, p2 = 14.8 lbf/in.2, T2 = 900°R. The mass flow rate of air entering the turbine is 11 lb/s, and 65,000 Btu/h of energy is rejected by heat transfer. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the power developed, in hp.

Air is separated into two product streams in a separator operating at steady state. One product stream is 98 mol% oxygen, and it contains 80% of the oxygen in the air fed to the column. The other product stream is mostly nitrogen. To a good approximation, air is 79 mol% nitrogen and 21 mol% oxygen. Calculate the quantity of air required, in tons/day, to produce 1 ton/day of the oxygen product. In addition, calculate the mol% nitrogen in the second...

A conduit carrying water vapor has one inlet and two exits. At the inlet, the velocity 25 m/s, the pressure is 4 bar and the temperature is 350 Celsius. The area at the inlet is 0.2 m^2 . At both the exits, the temperature and pressure are 300 Celsius and 3 bar respectively. The volumetric flow rate is identical at the two exits. Assuming steady-state conditions, calculate the volumetric flow rate at the exits.

Water vapor goes into a diffuser at steady state, with inlet conditions of 800 kPa, 200°C and velocity of 400 m/s. Superheated steam leaves the outlet at 2 MPa and velocity of 2 100 m/s. The inlet area of the diffuser is 14 cm . The system loses heat at the rate of 25 kJ/s to the surroundings. Neglect changes in potential energy between the inlet and outlet. What is the mass flow rate of the water vapor, in kg/s?...

The Willow Run Outlet Mall has two Haggar Outlet Stores, one located on Peach Street and the other on Plum Street. The two stores are laid out differently, but both store managers claim their layout maximizes the amounts customers will purchase on impulse. A sample of 10 customers at the Peach Street store revealed they spent the following amounts on impulse purchases: $17.58, $19.73, $12.61, $17.79, $16.22, $15.82, $15.40, $15.86, $11.82, and $15.85. A sample of 14 customers at the...

A compressor, operating at steady-state, increases the pressure of an air stream from 1 bar to 10 bar while losing 4.2 kW of heat to the surroundings. At the compressor inlet, the air is at 25o C and has a velocity of 14 m/s. At the compressor outlet, the air is at 350o C and has a velocity of 2.4 m/s. If the compressor inlet has a cross-sectional area of 500 cm2 and the air behaves as an ideal gas,...
