Use HYSYS to solve a simple energy balance.

Mixing a cold water stream (120 kg/min 30C) and a hot water stream (175 kg/min 65 C) then heating the streams to saturated vapor at 17 Bar. What is the duty?

Expert Solution

The basic simulation flow sheet will appear as this

Now we will simulate the above flow sheet and obtain the result

The Heat duty reuqired is

Additional results of each stream is follows

An adiabatic mixing chamber with operating pressure of 180 kPa is used to mix cold water and hot water. The hot water enters at 80°C with mass flow rate of 4.1 kg/s. The cold water enters the chamber at 39°C and the mixture leaves at a temperature of 45°C. Determine (a) the mass flow rate of the cold water and (b) the rate of entropy generation during this process.

Water flows through a shower head steadily at a rate of 8 kg/min. The water is heated in an electric water heater from 158C to 458C. In an attempt to conserve energy, it is proposed to pass the drained warm water at a temperature of 388C through a heat exchanger to preheat the incoming cold water. Design a heat exchanger that is suitable for this task, and discuss the potential savings in energy and money for your area.

Problem 1: a. An incoming stream of 1500 lbmol/min consists of saturated water with 62% liquid water and 28% steam at 40 bar. This stream is heated at constant pressure to 700ºC. Using the steam tables, what is the heat transfer requirement for this step in kW? b. This steam is then compressed isothermally to steam at 150 bar in a second step. What is the heat transfer requirement for this step in kW?

A stream of saturated water at 54 o C at 25 lbm/min and ammonia solution (50 wt%) at 150 lbm/min are fed to a boiler at 1 atm. The enthalpy of the ammonia solution relative to the reference conditions is 125 BTU/lbm. The liquid and vapor products are leaving the system. The liquid composition is to be 13 wt% NH3. Determine the rate at which heat must be transferred to the system. Includes diagram, mass balance, energy balance.

A manufacturing facility requires saturated steam at 120°C at a rate of 1.2 kg/min. Design an electric steam boiler for this purpose under these constraints: • The boiler will be in cylindrical shape with a height-to diameter ratio of 1.5. The boiler can be horizontal or vertical. • A commercially available plug-in type electrical heating element made of mechanically polished stainless steel will be used. The diameter of the heater can be between 0.5 cm and 3 cm. Also, the...

An adiabatic tank contains 120 kg of liquid water initially at 70 °C. The water within the tank is utilized to quench (cool) a 15 kg steel block initially at 300 °C. The steel block is dropped into the tank, and after some time the steel block and the water in the tank reach thermal equilibrium. Determine the total entropy change during the quenching process. Specific heat of steel : Csteel= 0.50 kJ/kg*K. Specific heat of water : Cwater= 4.18...
