A cylinndrical thin-walled vessel with an inside diameter of 24 inches is used to contain air at a maximum pressure 464 psi, repeated. The joint efficiency is taken to be 75% only. What wall thickness in inches is recommended for a design that is based on the yield point? Material is stainless steel AISI No. 416, annealed. Don't convert your answer to preferred size.
Round your answer to 4 significant figures.
Membrane filtration, operated in a dead-end mode, is used to treat secondary effluent. If the HPC in the effluent increased from 5 org/L to 200 org/L, after an extended period of operation, estimate the number of broken fibers for the following conditions. The influent flowrate and organism count are 4000 m3/d and 6.7×107 org/L, respectively. The membrane bundle contains 5000 individual fibers. If the influent and effluent turbidity values under normal operation are 4 and 0.25 NTU respectively, estimate the increase in the effluent turbidity assuming the increase could be measured.
