Propane is flowing in a 4-inch schedule 40 steel pipe at the minimum rate for which the flow is turbulent. Calculate the energy loss per 50 feet of pipe. Use Moody's diagram.
You have been asked to provide a design for a rapid mix tank at a water treatment plant which has an average water temperature of 60°F. The tank is to have a detention time (ta = HRT) of 1.5 seconds, a mixing intensity (G) of 1,428/second, and treats a flow (Q) of 9.4 mgd. Calculate the Motor Power (Pmotor, in HP) required to achieve the desired G value if the transfer efficiency is 80%. Provide your answer to the hundredths place (0.01). Be very careful with units (they need to cancel appropriately) and don't forget to report your answer in HP, not ft-Ib/sec).

When a refrigerant vaporizes, it takes heat from its surroundings. The latentheat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed for the refrigerant tovaporize. When 38.5 pounds of R-124 vaporize at 5°F, the latent heat ofvaporization is 2,721.95 Btu. What is the latent heat of vaporization for 1 poundof R-124 at 5°F?
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?

In a normal refrigeration cycle, the vapor pressure for refrigerant R-134aentering the compressor is 19.3 pounds per sq in gauge reading (psig). Thecondensing pressure is 150.5 psig higher than the vapor pressure. What isthe condensing pressure for refrigerant R-134a?
You serve as the president of XYZ corporation, which is an energy intensive manufacturing operation. You have four boilers to produce steam and electricity for your operations. One is a semi-suspension fired boiler with a capacity of 100 tons of coal per hour. The boiler can also burn supplemental fuel such as coconut or macadamia nut shells. The other three boilers arc peaking units and burn fuel oil. The City of Podunk has approached you about the possibility of burning solid waste as a supplemental fuel. As the president of the XYZ Corporation, you need to develop answers to many political, social, and technical questions before you make a commitment to the city. a. What specific questions would you ask your own power plant engineer about the possibility of accepting Podunk’s MSW? b. What specific additional data would you need from the city before you discuss this further?
