Question: 1 ) a ) Nitrogen ( N 2 ) from a tank flows at a rate of 6 lbm / min at 3 5

"1) a) Nitrogen (N2) from a tank flows at a rate of 6 lbm/min at 350F. It then enters a heater where it is heated and leaves the heater as a gas at 150F and 600 psia. Calculate the volumetric flow rate in ft3/min. Molecular weight of N2 is 28 g/mol or 28 lbm/ lbmol. Assume the ideal gas law is applicable. (2)
b) The density of a fluid is given by the empirical equation
density=70.5exp(8.27x10^-5p)PG14
equation (1)
where
is density (lbm/ft3) and
is pressure (lbf/in2).
(a) What are the units of 70.5 and 8.27 x 10-5?
(b) Calculate the density in g/cm3 for a pressure of 9 x 106 N/m2?"
