20. In the PFD given below components A (CH,OH), B (C,H,OH) and C (C,H,OH) are separated in a distillation column. (kg A/h) 2000 (kg/h) 0.03 kg B/kg 0.97 kg C/kg 1200 kg/h 0.70 kg A/kg y (kg B/kg) z (kg C/kg) 5300 kg/h *, (kg A/kg) y (kg B/kg) (kg/h) 0.60 kg B/kg 0.40 kg C/kg (a) How many molecular species are there? (b) How many unknowns are there? (c) How many equations relating the unknown variables are there? (d) How many degrees of freedom are there? lf Stream 2 is specified to have a mass fraction of 0.49 kg CH,OH/kg of mixture you can now prepare a balanced flow sheet. Why? (0) Solve for all of the unknowns. (9) Convert the mass fractions of stream 4 to mole fractions. 21. Xylene (CHO P = 704 kg/m) is flowing in a pipe with a diameter of 100 mm at a velocity of 2.2 m/s. (a) Calculate the volumetric flow rate in m/s. (6) Calculate the mass flow rate in kg/s. (c) Calculate the molar flow rate in mol/s. (d) The 100 mm pipe is joined to two smaller pipes with diameters of 25 mm and 50 mm respectively. If the velocity of the n-Octane in the smaller pipe is 1.5 m/s what is the fluid velocity in the larger pipe. (e) What are the volumetric flows for the two pipes in (d) above. (9 The 25 mm diameter pipe discharges into a 10mtank. Calculate the time it would take to fill the tank.
