Open question
XE-GNAT2 marksNeeds review
Consider that specific heat (0 to 50 °C) of water, water vapor and air remains constant: 4.48, 1.88 and 1.0 kJ/ (kg °C), respectively. Assuming, the heat energy required to convert 1 kg of water to water vapour at 0 °C is 200 kJ, the enthalpy (in kJ/ kg dry air) of atmospheric air containing 0.05 kg water vapour per kg dry air at 50 °C is ____.(rounded off to 1 decimal place)

A fruit juice is concentrated using an ultrafiltration membrane. A feed stream at 10 kg/min with 6% total solids (by weight) is increased to 20% total solids (by weight). The membrane tube has 10 cm inside diameter and the pressure difference across the membrane is 2000 kPa. If the permeability constant of the membrane is 5 × 10⁻⁵ kg water/ (m² kPa s), the length of membrane tube (in m) is_____. (rounded off to 2 decimal places)
