Problem 5An analysis of the gas in an underground utility vault revealed 30 mg/m3 of hydrogen sulfide, which a workcrew discovered before entering the vault to perform repairs. Due to the permissible exposure limitationof 14 mg/m3, the work team started using a blower to ventilate the vault (cellar). Suppose the vault has a200 m³ capacity and the predicted duration of detention is 15 minutes. determinea) The flow rate of contaminant-free air in (m3/s) to lower the hydrogen sulfide level to a level thatwill allow the work crew to enter the vault?b) How long will it take to lower the hydrogen sulfide level to a level that will allow the work crew toenter?Assume the system behaves as a CSTR and that hydrogen sulfide is nonreactive in the time considered.Note: This is a case of flushing a nonreactive contaminant from a CSTR.

The Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) of an air-conditioning unit is defined asthe ratio of the heat removed in Btu/h divided by the energy used in watts.The EEI (Edison Electric Institute) names an air-conditioning unit as anEnergy Star unit if it has an EER of 13 or greater. A 21⁄2-ton air-conditioningunit uses 2.41 kilowatts (2,410 watts) of energy. One ton is equivalent to12,000 Btu/h. Can this unit be termed an Energy Star unit?
