Carbon dioxide enters an adiabatic nozzle steadily at 1 MPa, 518 oC, and mass flow rate of 5,322 kg/h and exits the system at 96 kPa and 421 m/s. Considering the nozzle having an inlet area of 37 cm2, calculate the inlet velocity in m/s

Answer:

The velocity at the nozzle at inlet [tex]V_{1}[/tex] = 3584 [tex]\frac{m}{sec}[/tex]

Explanation:

Pressure at inlet [tex]P_{1}[/tex] = 1 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] Pa

Temperature at inlet [tex]T_{1}[/tex] = 518 ° c = 791 K

Mass flow rate = [tex]\frac{5322}{60}[/tex] [tex]\frac{kg}{sec}[/tex] = 88.7

Gas constant for carbon die oxide is R = 189 [tex]\frac{J}{kg k}[/tex]

Mass flow rate inside the nozzle is given by the formula = [tex]\frac{P_{1} }{R T_{1} }[/tex] × [tex]A_{1}[/tex] × [tex]V_{1}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P_{1}[/tex] = = 1 × [tex]10^{6}[/tex] Pa

⇒ R[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = 791 × 189 = 149499 [tex]\frac{J}{kg}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]A_{1}[/tex] = 0.0037 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

Put all the above values in above formula we get,

⇒ 88.7 = [tex]\frac{10^{6} }{149499}[/tex] × 0.0037 × [tex]V_{1}[/tex]

[tex]V_{1}[/tex] = 3584 [tex]\frac{m}{sec}[/tex]

This is the velocity at the nozzle at inlet.
