. . 2) Problem 2 (50 pts): Consider a chemical engineering plant operation where a pump station is driving a fluid trough a branch involving an absorption column and a heat exchanger. The specification and dimensions of these operations are as follows: The adsorption column has the following characteristics: Diameter of the column, Dc: 10-inch Effective particle diameter inside the column, Dp:/4 inch Bed length, Lb: 10-ft Volumetric flow rate into the column, Qc: 20 GPM Diameter of the inlet pipe to the column, D.: 4-inch Fraction void, : 0.20 The heat exchanger has the following characteristics: Total effective length of the pipeline in the heat exchanger: 200-ft Diameter of the pipe in the heat exchanger, Dz: 1-inch Pipe material: Commercial steel Assume that temperature effects are negligible. Assume that the flow of fluid in the pipe is the main source of energy loss. The properties of fluid are as follows: Specific Gravity: 1.2 Fluid viscosity, M: 10 CP Calculate pump head (in ft) and volumetric flow rate (in GPM) of the pump station that will allow this operation to take place.
