X is strong but has a very low density (1% of traditional
earth materials.) and hence
light weight. It is a recyclable material. The compression
behaviour of X is strain rate
dependent. Higher strain rates result in higher initial
modulus and higher
compression strength. It can also withstand unlimited
number of cycling loading
provided the repetitive loads are kept below 80% of the
compressive strength. The
internal structure of the material includes air-traps which
make it poor heat
conductor. X is non- biodegradable and chemically inert in
both soil and water. Most
acids and their water solutions do not attack it; however
strong oxidizing acids do.
Solvents which attack X include esters, ketones, ethers,
aromatic and aliphatic
hydrocarbons and their emulsions, among others. It does not
support
bacterial/fungal growth as well .It also has significant
acoustic properties and
effectively reduces the transmission of airborne sound. X
is combustible and should
not be exposed to open flame or other ignition sources.
Combustion products are
carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water and soot. Long-term
exposure to sunlight
causes yellowing and a slight embrittlement of the surface
due to ultraviolet light. X
is able to withstand the rigours of temperature cycling,
assuring long-term
performance.

A concentric, counter-current heat exchanger is used to cool lubricating oil. Water is used as the coolant. The mass flow rate of oil into the heat exchanger is 0.1 kg / s = FO. For oil, the inlet temperature TIO = 100 degree Celsius and the outlet temperature TOO = 55 degree Celsius. For water, the inlet temperature TIW = 35 degree Celsius and the outlet temperature TOW = 42 degree Celsius. What is the mass flow rate of water in kg / s, FW needed to maintain these operating conditions? Constant for heat capacity of oil is CO = 2131 J /(kg K) and for water is CW = 4178 J /(kg K). Use the equation (FO)(CO)(TIO – TOO) = (FW)(CW)(TOW – TIW).

Chemical Engineering Material Balance - Three hundred gallons of a mixture containing 75.0 wt % ethanol and 25 wt % water (mixture specific gravity = 0.877) and a quantity of a 40.0 wt % ethanol - 60 wt % water mixture (specific gravity = 0.952) are blended to produce a mixture containing 60.0 wt % ethanol. The specific gravity of a substance is the ratio of density of a substance compared to the density of water. The symbol of weight percent is wt %. (a) Estimate the specific gravity of the 60 % mixture by assuming that y = mx c where y is wt % ethanol, x is mixture specific gravity. Values for m and c are constants. (b) Determine the required volume of the 40 % mixture.
