Calculate the charge developed on a vessel being filled with carbon black by pouring from another open vessel. Assume the vessel has a volume of 1.89 m^3 and the feed rate is 0.1 kg/s. Identify the accumulated charge and the energy, and then determine whether the energy exceeds the MIE of dusts. Does the lower charge rate loweres the potential hazard?

Determine whether or not it is possible to compress air adiabatically from k to 140 kpa and 400 k. what is the entropy change during this process?

Thermal stresses are developed in a metal when its a) initial temperature is changed b) final temperature is changed c) density is changed d) thermal deformation is prevented e) expansion is prevented f) contraction is prevented

Amixture of slurry and mud is to be pumped through a horizontal pipe of diameter 500 mm. the fluid behaves as a bingham plastic with a yield stress of 30 pa and viscosity 0.04 pa.s. describe the effects of the shear stress through a transverse section of the pipe by plotting the variation in shear stress and velocity profile: (i) just before the slurry starts to move (ii) as the slurry flows when the pressure gradient is double that in part (i)
