A coal fired powerplant emits 0.5 kg/s of SO2 into the atmosphere from a stack that has a physical height of 100 meters. There is no temperature inversion and the atmosphere is characterized by class B stability for open country conditions. Exhaust emissions are 120 degrees C, ambient temperature is 25 degrees C, the stack diameter is 2.5 meters, and the volumetric flow of the exhaust is 35 cubic meters per second. The wind speed is 2 m/s. Calculate the plume rise of the emissions using the Holland equation and determine the effective emission height.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.

The y form of iron is known as: a) ferrite b) cementite c) perlite d) austenite
