Problem1: a) For the multistage desalination process below, if boiling of water takes place at 70 0 C what pressure
is inside the chamber ( ASSUME PURE WATER)

b) What insulation materials is best to insulate houses against heat in Saudi Arabia ??
Can these Materials be used to insulate an industrial furnace at 700 0 C.Why ? OR Why NOT??
Problem 2: Find amount of heat (Q) needed to heat one mole of Nitrogen Gas from 300 K to 1000 using:
a) generalized compressibility charts b) Vander Waals equation
c) Cp given by: Cp avg = a+bT+cT2+dT3 Where : a=28.9 ,b=-0.1571x10-2 ,c=0.8081x10-5.
1000
Q = ∫ Cp avg = ∫ (a+bT+cT2) dT
300
Problem 3 :
a)

b)
What Material is best for Transport of Energy ?? List at least 4 reasons

Problem 4 Steam at 0.4 MPa, 300oC, enters an adiabatic nozzle with a low velocity and leaves at 0.2 MPa with a quality of
90%. Find the exit velocity, in m/s. Control Vol: The nozzle Use: Steam tables Process: adiabatic, steady-flow Use
conservation Equations ( both Mass & Energy)
