Tutorial 6
Non reactive
Consider a process in which raw oranges are processed into orange juice. A possible process description follows:
1. The oranges enter a crusher, in which all of the water contained within the oranges is released.
2. The now-crushed oranges enter a strainer. The strainer is able to capture 90% of the solids, the remainder exit with the orange juice as pulp.
The velocity of the orange juice stream was measured to be 30 m/s and the radius of the piping was 8 inches.
Calculate:a) The mass flow rate of the orange juice product. b) The number of oranges per year that can be processed with this process if it is run 8 hours a day and 360 days a year. Ignore changes due to unsteady state at startup.
Use the following data: Mass of an orange: 0.4 kg Water content of an orange: 80% Density of the solids: Since its mostly sugars, its about the density of glucose, which is 1.540g/cm3.
