- 05: Acetylene gas (C₂H₂) at 25 °C is burned during a steady-flow combustion process with 30 percent excess air at 27 °C. It is observed that 75x10³ kJ of heat is being lost from the combustion chamber to the surroundings per kmol of acetylene. Assuming combustion is complete, determine the exit temperature of the product gases.arrow_forwardPlease answer legibly. Heat and Mass Transfer Evaporationarrow_forward10.5-2. Minimum Gas Rate and Height of Water-Cooling Tower. It is planned to cool water from 110°F to 85°F in a packed countercurrent water-cooling tower using entering air at 85°F with a wet bulb temperature of 75°F. The water flow is 2000 lb/h ft² and the air flow is 1400 lb air/h ft2. The overall mass-transfer coefficient is KG a = 6.90 lb mol/h · ſt³ · atm. (a) Calculate the minimum air rate that can be used. (b) Calculate the tower height needed if the air flow of 1400 lb air/h ft² is used. .arrow_forward
