Air flows at a steady rate through a horizontal pipe to a partly closed valve.

The pipe leaving the valve is

enough larger than the entrance pipe that the kinetic-energy change of the air as it flows through the
valve is negligible. The valve and connecting pipes are well insulated. The conditions of the air upstream
from the valve are 20˚C and 6 bar, and the downstream pressure is 3 bar. If the flow rate of the air is 1
mol s-1 and if both upstream and downstream pipes have an inner diameter of 5 cm, what is the kinetic-
energy change of the air and what is its temperature change? For air, C p = (7/2) R and M = 29 g mol-1.

d. 0.816 J/s ; -0.0064
