A sheet of cellulose acetate film containing 5.00wt% liquid acetone enters an adiabatic dryer where 90% of the acetone evaporates into a stream of dry air flowing over the film. The film enters the dryer at Tf1 = 35°C and leaves at Tf2 (°C). The air enters the dryer at Ta1 (°C) and 1.01 atm and exits the dryer at T = 49°C and 1 atm with a relative saturation of 40%. Cp may be taken to be 1.33 kJ/ (kg· °C) for dry film and 0.129 kJ/ (mol·°C) for liquid acetone. Make a reasonable assumption regarding the heat capacity of dry air. The heat of vaporization of acetone may be considered independent of temperature. Take a basis of 100 kg film fed to the dryer for the requested calculations.
(a) Estimate the feed ratio [liters dry air (STP)/kg dry film].
(b) Derive an expression for Tai in terms of the film temperature change, (Tf2 - 35), and use it to answer parts (c) and (d).
(c) Calculate the film temperature changes if the inlet air temperature is 120°C.
(d) Calculate the required value of Ta1 if the film temperature falls to 34°C, and the value if it rises to 36°C.
(e) If you solved parts (c) and (d) correctly, you found that even though the air temperature is consistently higher than the film temperature in the dryer, so that heat is always transferred from the air to the film, the film temperature can drop from the inlet to the outlet. How is this possible?
Approximately 2.0 104 gal nitric acid was spilled. Assume that the acid was an aqueous solution containing 70.0% HNO3 by mass with a density of 1.42 g/cm3. How much sodium carbonate was required for complete neutralization of the spill, and how ..
Estimate the area under the curve f(x) = 16 - x^2 from x = 0 to x = 3 by using three inscribed (under the curve) rectangles. Answer to the nearest integer.
Assume that losses cannot be offset against revenues from other operations for tax purposes (i.e., no tax credits in years when the plant makes a loss). Estimate the following:
a. What alarms would you add to the vaporizer control scheme shown in Figure? Indicate whether the alarm would signal high or low conditions, what the alarm would signify, and what operator response would be required in each case.
If a double-effect evaporator system is used with forward feed and U = 450 Btu/h-ft2-°F and 112 = 350 Btu/h-ft2-°F, and a vapor- space pressure of 4 in. Hg in the second effect determine the heat- transfer area of each effect, assuming equal areas..
