A pipeline carries a flow of 60.34 m3/min of steam at 1.00 MPa and 20.09°C superheat. Determine the mass flow rate of steam in kg/min.
Natural gas, with the thermodynamic properties of methane, flows in an underground pipeline of 0.6 m diameter. The gage pressure at the inlet to a compressor station is 0.5 MPa; outlet pressure is 8.0 MPa (gage). The gas temperature and speed at inlet are 13C and 32 m/s, respectively. The compressor efficiency is η = 0.85. Calculate the mass flow rate of natural gas through the pipeline. Label state points on a Ts diagram for compressor inlet and outlet. Evaluate the gas temperature and speed at the compressor outlet and the power required to drive the compressor.
1. Saturated steam at a pressure of 25 psia is sprayed into a stream of moist air. The initial condition of the air is 55 dry-bulb temperature and 35 F de-point temperature. The mass rate of air flow is 2000 lb per min. Barometric pressure is 14.696 psia. Determine how much steam must be added in lb per min to produce a saturated air condition, b) the resulting temperature of the saturated air.
