Thanks all for the pointers,
mugsliens I've completed a subject in fluid mechanics that only looked at incompressible fluids so would I be correct in saying that major (friction) and minor (inlet/outlet exspansions) head losses relate smilarly in compressible fluids?
I will receive data...
This is not homework, but a problem from work.
If 4 tanks with fixed 90m^3 volume contained Nitrogen gas at 701.3 kPag were purged to 131.3 kPag through a 100mm pipe how would I work out the velocity/volumetric flow rate of the output?
Thanks
Ok,
so Xsolvent=molsolvent/(molsolute+molsolvent), we are looking to find molsolute (I2) so we can multiply by the RFM (253.8 g.mol-1) to get the mass needed.
1L of chloroform has mass 1490g = 12.482mol
Xsolvent=(135.7kPa-13.3kPa)/135.7kPa=.902
Xsolvent=12.482/(12.482+x)=.902...
Hey,
Here is the solution I got, its different to your answer though...
Psolution=xsolvent.Psolvent
so Psolution=135.7-13.3 kpa (the new pressure of the solution)
now in 1L =1000cm3 there is 1490 grams = 12.482 moles
so re-arrange the equation and you get=> x = (12.482 -...
