Ethane (C2H6) at 20oC and 200kPa and methane (CH4) at 45oC and 200kPa enter an adiabatic mixing chamber. The mass flow rate of ethane is 9kg/s which is twice the mass flow rate of methane .Determine the mixture temperature and pressure. Take the specific heats of C2H6=1.7662kJ/kg K, CH4=2.2537kJ/kg K.
Consider 11.98 kg/s of saturated liquid at 40 atm. What is the entropy?
50 grams of water at 20ºC is converted into steam at 250ºC at constant atmospheric pressure. Assuming the heat capacity per gram of liquid water to remain constant at 4.2 J/g K and the heat of vaporization at 100ºC to be 226 J/g, and using Cp/R=a+bT+cT2, calculate the entropy change of the system. a=3.652, b=1.157x10-3 K-1, c=0.142x10-6 K-2
