A mixture of ethyl alcohol and water with equimolar concentration is to be distilled in a seven plates column as a batch distillation with a reboiler at atmospheric pressure, if we neglect the residue liquid in condenser and reboiler, calculate :- A) State-1 (Constant XD).
The amount of distilled (D) and the a mount of heat required for ( 100 Kmole of Feed ) to get xD = 80 mole% , if R (reflux ratio must be increased till it reach=6.0 ) .
B) State-2 (Constant reflux ratio R).
The average value of xD (top product) & the a mount of heat if the concentration in the boiler must not less than 10 mole% ethanol if R is constant at = 4.0.
VLE for Ethanol-water are given in curve below:-

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/'s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from control volume inlet to exit. the liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet is 40.09 btu/lb and at the exit is 40.94 btub. the pump requires 3 btu/s of power to operate. if kinetic energy effects are negligible and gravitational acceleration is 32.174 tt/s, the heat transfer rate associated with this steady state process is most closely 1)-2,02 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings 2)-3.98 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 3)-4.96 btu/s from the surroundings to the liquid. 4)-1.04 btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.

Air (c-1.006 kj/kg.k, r-0.287 kj/kg.k) enters a nozzle steadily at 280 kpa and 77°c with a velocity of 50 m/s and exits at 85 kpa and 320 m/s. the heat losses from the nozzle to the surrounding medium at 20°c are estimated to be 3.2 kj/kg. determine (a) the exit temperature and (b) the total entropy change for this process. solve this problem using constant specific heats.
