Question #238575

Two gaseous streams enter a combining tube and leave as a single mixture. These data apply at the entrance section:


For one gas : A1 = 55 cm2 U1 = 400fps    v1 = 10 ft3/lbm

For another gas: A2 = 50 cm2  m2 = 12.22lbm/s    р = 00.12lbm/ft3

At exit section: U3 = 350 fps      v3 = 8ft3/lbm

Find (a) U2 at section 2 (b) mass flow rate at the exit

(a) To find speed at section 2

Mass flow rate at section 2:

m2=P2A2U2U2=m2P2A2=12.22  lb/ft30.12  lg/ft3×0.0538  ft2=1892.21  fpsm_2 = P_2A_2U_2 \\ U_2 = \frac{m_2}{P_2A_2} \\ = \frac{12.22 \;lb/ft^3}{0.12 \; lg/ft^3 \times 0.0538 \;ft^2} \\ = 1892.21 \;fps

(b) To find mass flow rate at the exit

m1=P1A1U1m1=0.1×0.0592×400=2.368  lb/sm_1=P_1A_1U_1 \\ m_1 = 0.1 \times 0.0592 \times 400 = 2.368 \; lb/s

Conservation of mass

m3=m1+m2=2.368+12.22=14.588  lb/sm_3 = m_1+m_2 \\ = 2.368 + 12.22 \\ = 14.588 \;lb/s
