A deli meats factory pumps a liquefied meat mixture through round plastic pipe that is 75mm inside diameter. Assume that the liquid meat mixture has a specific gravity of 0.9, a dynamic viscosity of 0.1N∙s/m^2, and that it flows at an average speed of 0.5m/s.

a) What is the kinematic viscosity of the liquefied meat mixture in m²/s?

b) What is Reynolds number for liquefied meat mixture?

c) Is the flow laminar or turbulent?

d) What is the mass flow rate in kg/s?

A gas mixture containing 60% N2 and the balance n-hexane flows through a pipe at a rate of 200m3/hr. The pressure is 2atm absolute and the temperature is 100 C. a) What is the molar flow rate of the gas in kmol/hr? b) Is the gas saturated? Show calculations (hint: use vapor pressure of hexane at 100 C) c) If 80% of n-hexane is condensed (and leaves as a liquid), how much of vapor is leaving and what is its...

A mixture containing 15.0 mol% hexane balance N2 flows through a pipe at 6.53 kmol/h. The pressure is 2.00 atm (abs) and the temperature is 100°C. If I want to begin to condense the hexane, what temperature do I need cool to? If I want to condense 80% of the hexane, what temperature do I need to cool to?
