Nitroethane is an organic compound having the chemical formula C 2 H 5 NO 2. Similar in many regards to nitromethane , nitroethane is an oily liquid at standard temperature and pressure. Pure nitroethane is colorless and has a fruity odor.
The reaction produces fragments from the parent alkane, creating a diverse mixture of products; for instance, nitromethane, nitroethane, 1-nitropropane, and 2-nitropropane are produced by treating propane with nitric acid in the gas phase (e.g. 350–450 °C and 8–12 atm).
For simplicity, the gas is assumed to be an ideal gas. The gas flow is isentropic. The gas flow is constant. The gas flow is along a straight line from gas inlet to exhaust gas exit. The gas flow behavior is compressible. There are numerous applications where a steady, uniform, isentropic flow is a good approximation to the flow in conduits.
The compressed fluid region is located to the left of the blue line (the liquid-vapor phase boundary). The international pictogram for compressed gases. A compressed fluid (also called a compressed or unsaturated liquid, [1] subcooled fluid or liquid) is a fluid under mechanical or thermodynamic conditions that force it to be a liquid. [2]
A fluidized bed reactor (FBR) is a type of reactor device that can be used to carry out a variety of multiphase chemical reactions. In this type of reactor, a fluid (gas or liquid) is passed through a solid granular material (usually a catalyst) at high enough speeds to suspend the solid and cause it to behave as though it were a fluid.
Liquefaction is used for analyzing the fundamental properties of gas molecules (intermolecular forces), or for the storage of gases, for example: LPG, and in refrigeration and air conditioning. There the gas is liquefied in the condenser , where the heat of vaporization is released, and evaporated in the evaporator , where the heat of ...
In a cosolvent system, two miscible fluids with different boiling points are mixed to create a zeotropic mixture. [22] [23] The first fluid is a solvating agent that dissolves soil in the cleaning process. [22] [23] This fluid is an organic solvent with a low-boiling point and a flash point greater than the system's operating temperature.
An air compressor is used to compress filtered air to high pressure; the high-pressure gas is cooled back to ambient temperature, and allowed to expand to a low pressure. The expanding air cools greatly (the Joule–Thomson effect), and oxygen, nitrogen, and argon are separated by further stages of expansion and distillation. Small-scale ...
