3-LTGassProcess Flashcards
1
Q
Why is there a difference in mass flow in a HX during liquification?
A
Because of the condensing of product. This means we need a higher WF flow rate to compensate for the latent heat that is extracted
2
Q
What is figure of merit,FOM used for?
A
It is used to compare an ideal cycle to one considering efficiency
3
Q
What is the difference between Joule thomson and Calude liquification?
A
Joule thomson uses joule thomson valvv, while Claude uses a turbine to reduce gas pressure.
4
Q
What can be used as a measurement of efficiency instead of COP for liquification?
A
Efficiency can be measured as energy input per mass of liquified product
