Question:
You have been asked to do an analysis of a steady state pump that will transfer Aniline, an organic material, from one area to another in a chemical plant. Please determine the temperature change that the fluid undergoes during this process. The flow rate is constant in the system at 1.0 ft3/sec. The inlet to the pump has a diameter of 8 inches, and the pressure to the pump is 250 lbf/ft2. The outlet from the pump has a diameter of 5 in. and a pressure of 600 Ibf/ft2. The fluid that will be pumped has a density of 63.0 Ibm/ft3, a heat capacity of 0.490 Btu/Ibm°F, viscosity of 1.8 × l0-3 Ibm/ft s, and kinematic viscosity of 2.86 × 10-5 ft2/s. The outlet from the pump is located 75 ft higher than the inlet to the pump. The pump provides work to the fluid at a rate of 8.3 × 106 Ibmft2/s3, and the heat transferred to the CV from the pump is 1.40 × 106 Btu/h. In this analysis, you may assume steady state and ignore viscous work.
