A20-cm-long, cylindrical graphite (pure carbon) rod is inserted into an oxidizing atmosphere at 1145 k and 1.013 x 10⁵ pa pressure. the oxidizing process is limited by the diffusion of oxygen counterflow to the carbon monoxide that is formed on the cylindrical surface. under the conditions of the combustion process, the diffusivity of oxygen in the gas mixture may be assumed to be 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ m²/s.
(a) determine the moles of co that are produced at the surface of the rod per second at the time when the diameter of the rod is 1.0 cm and the oxygen concentration that is 1.0 cm radial distance from the rod is 40 mol%. assume a steady-state process.
(b) what would be the composition of oxygen 1.0 cm from the center of the rod?

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
