Calculating flow rate of nitrogen
The feed of an ammonia synthesis reactor is 25% (lbmole) nitrogen with the balance hydrogen. The flow rate is 3000 kg/h at 65°C and 95 bar. Calculate the flow rate of nitrogen to the reactor in kg/hr.

So for 3000Kg/Hr feed we convert to lb mole feed rate=(3000/0.45359237)lb/hr =6613.868 lb/hr
So N2: H2 =1:3 in lbe mole in feed
1lbmole N2 =28 lb N21lbmole H2 =2.015 lb H2
So N2:H2 =3*2.016lb: 28Lb=6.048lb:28lb
So Each 34.048 lb feed has 28lb N2
So 1653.467lbmole/hr feed has =388.5026 lb of N2 = 388.5026lb*0.453.59237kg/lb =176.2218 Kg/Hr N2
A steady-state flow process is used to heat methanol in a tank. The incoming stream is at 2 bar and 25 oC and has a flow rate of 5 kg/s. The outgoing stream is at 1 bar, 100 oC. Heating is provided by a heating coil immersed in a tank. Given the
Ethanol (1) Describe the production of ethanol in Scottish Whisky beverages. Be sure to include a discussion on dangers of impurities (2) Explain the impact of ethanol on the human body (3) List th
Modeling eye movements is commonly performed in the Matlab/Simulink pacakage. Based on the Physiological evidence, oculomotor plants have been designed to simulate various eye movements. Choose two eye movement models, one for saccades and the other for pursuit, and simulate the following amplitudes
The Clausius-Clapeyron equation gives us an expression for dP/dT. Now we will derive an analog to the Clausius-Clapeyron equation by obtaining an expression for dT/dµ when two phases are at equilibrium. For simplicity, let’s derive this fo
A stream of steam at 1 bar and 400 K enters a compressor through a pipe with cross-sectional area of 0.1 m2 at a velocity of 5 m/s. The pressure of the outlet stream is at 5 bar, temperature is at 500 K, and velocity is 1 m/s. Assume the steam can be descri
The feed to an ammonia synthesis reactor contain 25 mole% nitrogen and the balance hydrogen. The flow rate of the stream is 3000 kg/hr. Calculate the rate of flow of nitrogen into the reactor in kg/hr. (Hint: First calculate the average molecular weight of the mixture).
Natural Gas is flowing through a 10 inch schedule 40 pipe. The gas is at 109°F and 7.3 psig. The outside air temperature is 92°F. If the flow rate of the gas is 8,000 SCFM: What is the flow rate in lb/hr?
