1. Chapter 8 Energy Balance on Nonreactive Species

2. Introduction Normally in chemical process unit, W s =0; ΔE p =0; ΔE k =0; Then energy balance equation become: Close SystemOpen System Q=ΔUQ=ΔH For this chapter, we will learn the procedure for evaluating ΔU and ΔH when table Ĥ and Û are not available for all process species. Example enthalpy change (ΔĤ) for solid phenol at 25 o C and 1 atm converted to phenol vapor at 300 o C and 3 atm. Method to calculate ΔĤ and ΔÛ associated with certain process such as: 1.Change in P, at constant T & constant state of aggregation 2.Change in T, at constant P & constant state of aggregation 3.Phase changes at constant T & constant P (melting, solidifying, vaporizing) 4.Mixing at constant T & constant P 5.Chemical reaction at constant T & constant P

3. Hypothetical Process Path State properties  properties that depend on the state of the species (primarily on its temperature and state of aggregation, and to lesser extent on its pressure).  Specific enthalpy (Ĥ) and specific internal energy (Û) are state properties species  When a species passes from one state to another state, both ΔĤ and ΔÛ for the process are independent of the path taken from the first state to the second state. We can construct a hypothetical process path which can consist of several step based on our convenience, as long as we reach to the final state starting from their initial state.

4. Hypothetical Process Path ΔĤ= (vapor, 300˚C, 3 atm) – (solid, 25˚C, 1 atm) Cannot determine directly form enthalpy table – must use hypothetical process path consist of several step. Check Table B.1 : P= 1 atm; T m = 42.5C and T b = 181.4C True Path Ph (s, 25C, 1 atm) Ph (s, 42.5C, 1 atm) Ph (l, 42.5C, 1 atm) Ph (l, 181.4C, 1 atm) Ph (v, 181.4C, 1 atm) Ph (v, 300C, 1 atm) Ph (v, 300C, 3 atm) Change T, Constant P & Phase Change Phase, Constant P & T Change T, Constant P & Phase Change Phase, Constant P & T Change T, Constant P & Phase Change P, Constant T & Phase

5. Procedure Energy Balance Calculations 1.Perform all required material balance calculations. 2.Write the appropriate form of the energy balance (closed or open system) and delete any of the terms that are either zero or negligible for the given process system. 3.Choose a reference state – phase, temperature, and pressure – for each species involved in the process. 4.Construct inlet-outlet table for specific internal energy (close system) or specific enthalpy (close system) –For closed system, construct a Table with columns for initial and final amounts of each species (m i or n i ) and specific internal energies (Û) relative to the chosen reference states –For an open system, construct a table with columns for inlet and outlet stream component flow rates (m i or n i ) and specific enthalpies (Ĥ) relative to the chosen references states. 5.Calculate all required values of Ĥ or Û and insert the values in the appropriate places in the table. Then calculate ΔĤ or ΔÛ for the system. 6.Calculate any work, kinetic energy, or potential energy terms that you have not dropped from the energy balance 7.Solve the energy balance for whichever variable is unknown (often Q)

9. Change in T at Constant P & Constant Phase Sensible heat – heat that must be transferred to RAISE or LOWER the temperature of substance or mixture of substance –C p - heat capacity at constant pressure - given in Table B.2 in the form of polynomial equation function of temperature –C v - heat capacity at constant volume Specific internal energy change Ideal gas: exact Solid or Liquid: good approximation Nonideal gas: valid only if V is constant

10. Change in T at Constant P & Constant Phase Specific enthalpy change Ideal gas: exact Nonideal gas: exact only if P is constant Solid & Liquid

11. Heat Capacities, Cp Estimation of heat capacities, Cp –Kopp’s rule- simple empirical method for estimating Cp of solid or liquid at 20 O C based on the summation of atomic heat capacities (Table B.10) of the molecular compound. (C p ) Ca(OH)2 = (C pa ) Ca + 2 (C pa ) O + 2 (C pa ) H = 26 + (2x17) + (2x9.6)= 79 J/mol.˚C Estimation for heat capacities of mixtures C pi = C p for ith component y i = mass or moles fraction

16. Phase Change Operations Phase change such as melting and evaporation are usually accompanied by large changes in internal energy and enthalpy Latent heat –Specific enthalpy change associated with the phase at constant temperature and pressure. Heat of fusion or heat of melting, ΔĤ m (T,P) –Specific enthalpy different between solid and liquid forms of species at T & P –Heat of solidification (liquid to solid) is –ve value of heat of fusion. Heat of vaporization, ΔĤ v (T,P) –Specific enthalpy different between liquid and vaporforms of species at T & P –Heat of condensation (vapor to liquid) is –ve value of heat of vaporization. The latent heat of phase change may vary considerably with the temperature at which the changes occurs but hardly varies with the pressure at the transition point.

21. Psychrometric Charts PSYCHROMETRIC chart (or HUMIDITY Chart) is a compilation of a large quantity of physical property data in a single chart. The properties are: (a) Wet Bulb Temperature (b) Saturation Enthalpy (c) Moisture Content (d) Dry Bulb Temperature (e) Humid Volume The Psychrometric Chart is particularly important for Air-Water system and normally is at Pressure of 1 atm. Psychrometric Chart is very useful in the analysis of humidification, drying, and air-conditioning process.

23. To use Psychrometric Chart, you need to know TWO values to determine the values of the others on the chart. IMPORTANT TERM: Dry-bulb temperature, T – The abscissa of the chart. This is the air temperature as measured by thermometer, thermocouple, or other conventional temperature-measuring device. Absolute humidity, ha [kg H 2 O (v)/ kg DA] – Called moisture content placed on the ordinate of the chart.

24. Use the psychrometric chart to estimate 1. the absolute humidity 2. wet bulb temperature 3. humid volume 4. dew point 5. specific enthalpy of humid air at 41C, 10% relative humidity
