Mass Flow Rate of Flue Gas in Sugar Industry

AI Thread Summary
To calculate the mass flow rate of flue gas in the sugar industry, additional data is needed beyond just the pipe diameter and ID fan speed. Key missing information includes the pressure difference at the pipe's ends, the length of the pipe, and the viscosity and density of the gas. Poiseuille's law can be applied to determine the mass flow rate once this data is available. Without these parameters, accurate calculations cannot be made. Gathering comprehensive data is essential for precise mass flow rate determination.

Hello,
I want to find the mass flow rate of flue gas, i have only the diameter of pipe and ID fan speed which are 1.48Meter and 980 RPM respectively

I really doubt that you have enough information to get the results you want. Perhaps someone else will be able to say more.
 
I think you need more data such as pressure difference among the pipe's ends, the length of the pipe, viscosity and density of the gas. And you can determine the mass flow rate by multiplying the poiseuille's law.
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
