Question:
At a tee junction in the piping of a chemical plant, 5 kg/s of methane enters on one side at P1 = 1 MPa, T1 = 400 K, and 1 kg/s of methane enters on the other as a saturated liquid at P2 = 1 MPa. The two streams are mixed and exit from the junction at P3 = 1 MPa. Assuming steady-state, neglecting the kinetic and potential energies of the flow streams, and treating the mixer as adiabatic, determine the temperature of the discharge stream (T3). This will require both an energy balance and a mass balance.
