CHE 212 Thermodynamics For Agricultural Engineering EXAM I 2 9 SAFAR /1441 Student name:…………………………….Student Number:………………………………… Q1: a) A nozzle is a device designed to control the direction or characteristics of a fluid flow (especially to increase velocity) Steam at 0.4 MPa, 300 0C, enters an adiabatic nozzle with a low as it exits (or enters) an enclosed chamber or pipe velocity OF 10 m/s and leaves at 0.2 MPa with a quality of 90%. Find the exit velocity, in m/s b)What is the best substance to transfer eenrgy and Why? c) For the multistagedesalination process, if boiling of water takes place at 70 o C what pressure is inside the chamber ( ASSUME PURE WATER) Q2: Determine the specific volume of superheated water vapor at 1.6 MPa and 225 oC based on: a. The ideal gas equation. b. The generalized compressibility chart. c. The steam tables Q3 Ethylene is used in agriculture as ripening gas. at P=100 bar & T= 421 K And using the compressibility factor charts below, find the compressibility factor Z, for ethylene at these conditions, is it an ideal gas? Why or Why not?
