You, a process design engineer, are tasked to build a powerplant with a net output of 1 MW. First, in an industrial boiler, coal is burned to heat and pressurize 1.6 kg/s of water pumped from an underground reservoir (25 oC, 1 atm) to High Pressure Steam (44 atm, 450 oC). The industrial boiler is insulated, but due to the high temperatures and the nature of the process there are inevitably heat losses. As such, the total heat losses of the whole system is around 20% of the heat from the coal. The High-Pressure Steam, moving at a linear velocity of 70 m/s, is then used to drive a turbine. The low pressure steam from the turbine is used to preheat the boiling water and then released to the atmosphere as saturated steam (100oC and1atm) at a velocity of 10 m/s via an exhaust 10 m above the turbine inlet. How much heat is needed for the powerplant? Use the following values of enthalpy: Water from reservoir 25oC; 1atm H=104.93 kJ/kg High Pressure Steam 450oC; 44atm H=3324.63 kJ/kg Low…

The ideal gas law relates the pressure P, volume V, absolute temperature T (Kelvin), and amount of gas n. The law is P = mAT where R is the gas constant. An engineer must design a large natural gas storage tank to be expandable to maintain the pressure constant at 2.2 atmospheres. In December when the temperature is -15°C, the volume of gas in the tank is 28,500 ft°. What will the volume of the same quantity of gas be in July when the temperature is 31°C? (Hint: Use the fact that n, R, and P are constant in this problem. Note also that Kelvin = °C+273.2)

A feed of 10 000 kg of soybeans is processed in a sequence of three stages. The feed contains 35wt% protein, 27.1wt% carbohydrate, 9.4wt% fiber and ash, 10.5wt% moisture, and 18wt% oil. In the first stage, the beans are crushed and pressed to remove oil, giving an expressed oil stream and a stream of pressed beans containing 6wt% oil. Assume no loss of other constituents in the oil stream. In the second stage, the pressed beans are extracted with hexane to produce an extracted meal stream containing 0.5wt% oil and a hexane-oil stream. Assume no hexane in the extracted meal. Finally, in the last stage, the extracted meal is dried to give a dried meal of 8wt% moisture. Find the 1. mass in kg of pressed beans from the first stage, the mass of extracted meal from the second stage, mass of final dried meal from the third stage, and wt% of protein in the dried meal. Provide illustration.

The electric kettle uses electricity from a natural gas fired powerplant, while you boil water in your stovetop kettle on a natural gas burner. a) Based on the following information, which of these kettles demonstrates a higher energy efficiency (i.e., which is more efficient at using energy from fuel to heat water)? Please calculate the efficiencies of each kettle and express answers as percentages. -The natural gas power plant converts chemical energy of the natural gas to electricalenergy with 58% efficiency. -High-voltage power lines from the power plant to your house convey electricity with92% efficiency. -The electric kettle converts electrical energy to thermal energy in the water with 85%efficiency (the other 15% heats up the kettle itself). -The stove burner converts chemical energy of natural gas to thermal energy with 98%efficiency (the other 2% is light). -The stovetop kettle transfers 35% of…
The figure below shows a schematic of a dual-duct system For design purposes, suppose the zones shown are two of five zones, each having identical operating design conditions. The only exhaust is the main system exhaust. The zones are to held at 75 °F db / 50% RH when the total heat gain of each one is 200,000 BTUH and the sensible heat ratio is 0.6.

11 Sunco Oil has refineries in Los Angeles and Chicago.The Los Angeles refinery can refine up to 2 million barrelsof oil per year, and the Chicago refinery up to 3 million.Once refined, oil is shipped to two distribution points:Houston and New York City. Sunco estimates that eachdistribution point can sell up to 5 million barrels per year.Because of differences in shipping and refining costs, theprofit earned (in dollars) per million barrels of oil shippeddepends on where the oil was refined and on the point ofdistribution (see Table 51). Sunco is considering expandingthe capacity of each refinery. Each million barrels of annualrefining capacity that is added will cost $120,000 for the LosAngeles refinery and $150,000 for the Chicago refinery. Uselinear programming to determine how Sunco can maximizeits profits less expansion costs over a ten-year period.
