Can anyone assist me to settle this thermo question provided by my lecturer? Please? This is a an introduction of what i tried to understand:Okay, the question:1st airflow: 3500 Nm3/hr.T = 800 CCp = 1.3K2nd airflow: 1805 Nm3/hr.T = 80 CCp = 1.05K(Data over are given)Mixed gas airflow: 3500+1805 = 5305 Nm3/hrT = CCp = CMy concern is:Wjat is the an interpretation of Cp, is it continuous pressure?If that is the consistent pressure, why the values room so akward, doesn't follow the (T+273/T+273) rule?How to calculate the mixed T and also Cp?And ultimately how to get the (standard temperature pressure) STP of the flow rate? (Am3/hr) many thanks to everyone that can help.Yong Tze Shoong,University technology of Malaysia.

The units you give for Cp is dodgy. Cp is the molar heat capacity at continuous pressure, therefore its unit need to be energy per unit temperature per mole, ie. J/K.molP: last pressureV: last volumetric flow-rateN: final molar flow-rateT: last temperatureassume air consists of 79% Nitrogen and also 21% Oxygenassume air flow behaves ideallyFrom data,P1.V1 = N1.R.T1 where:P1.V1 = 3500 N.m3/hT1 = 800C = 1073K=> N1 = 0.39234 mol/h From data,P2.V2 = N2.R.T2 whereP2.V2 = 1805 N.m3/hT2 = 80C = 353K=> N2 = 0.61502 mol/h assume the mix of airflows is adiabatic, thenP.V = P1.V1 + P2.V2 = 5305 N.m3/h assume the mixing process is at steady state,N = N1 + N2 = 1.0074 mol/husing appropriate gas equation,T = P.V/N.R = 5305/(1.0074)(8.314) = 633.39Kassume mixing procedure is adiabatic, thenH = H1 + H2 whereH: final enthalpyH1: enthalpy of very first airflowH2: enthalpy of second airflowH = N.(h* + Cp.T)H1 = N1.(h* + Cp1.T1)H2 = N2.(h* + Cp2.T2)where h* is referral enthalpy state (assume to it is in zero)Cp: final molar warm capacityCp1: molar warmth capacity of first airflowCp2: molar warmth capacity of 2nd airflowH = H1 + H2N.(h* + Cp.T) = N1.(h* + Cp1.T1) + N2.(h* + Cp2.T2)N.Cp.T = N1.Cp1.T1 + N2.Cp2.T2Cp = (N1.Cp1.T1 + N2.Cp2.T2)/N.T
