A natural gas furnace is used to heat a home. On average, the home needs to be heated at a rate of 34000 BTU/hr during the winter months. Assuming the amount of heat released by the natural gas during the combustion process is described by the lower heating value and that only 90.8 % of the heat generated from combustion is used in heating the home. When the natural gas combusts (and assume all of it combusts), it creates 860 mg of nitrogen oxides per pound (Ibm) of natural gas. Assuming that the heater is used only 176 days out of the year, what is the amount of nitrogen oxides produced annually? kg

Water in a partially filled large tank is to be supplied to the roof top, which is 8 m above the water level in the tank, through a 2.2-cm-internal-diameter pipe by maintaining a constant air pressure of 300 kpa (gage) in the tank. if the head loss in the piping is 2 m of water, determine the discharge rate of the supply of water to the roof top in liters per second.

Along 8-cm diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 900c connects two buildings. the pipe is exposed to ambient air at 70c with a wind speed of 50 km/hr blowing across the pipe. determine the heat loss from the pipe per unit length. (b) air at 500c enters a section of a rectangular duct (15 cm x 20 cm) at an average velocity of 7 m/s. if the walls of the duct are maintained at 100c. a) the length of the tube for an exit temperature of the air to be 40 0c. b)the rate of heat transfer from the air. c) the fan power needed to overcome the pressure drop in this section of the duct.
