This set of Separation Processes Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Mass Transfer in Laminar Flow”.
1. The equation of motion for the liquid film in fully developed laminar flow in y-direction is:
a) µd2uy/dx2 + ρg =0
b) µd2uy/dy2 + ρg =0
c) µd2uy/dz2 + ρg =0
d) µd2uy/dx2 = 0
View Answer
Explanation: Flow is in y direction but changes with respect to z-direction.
Hence the equation of motion is µd2uy/dz2 + ρg =0.
2. Which two forces is the reynold’s number a ratio of?
a) Gravitational force and interfacial force
b) Interfacial force and viscous force
c) Thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity
d) Conduction and convection
View Answer
Explanation: The reynold’s number Nre = 4τ/µ is the ratio of interfacial and viscous force.
3. What value of Reynold’s number is obtained with water?
a) 8
b) 16
c) 25
d) 50
View Answer
Explanation: The value of 25 is obtained with water.
4. What value of reynold’s number represents a laminar flow?
a) 3
b) 2500
c) 5000
d) 78
View Answer
Explanation: Only the value of 78 lies between 8 and 1200. SO it represents a laminar flow.
5. Which of the following is correct about Reynold’s number? 6. Prandtl’s number is the ratio of which two quantities? 7. Which of the following is true about prandtl’s number? 8. What is the physical significance of nusselt’s number? 9. What is the correct formula for nusselt’s number? 10. Which of the following is most true?

a) 3less thanNreless than1200
b) 3less than
c) 25less than
d) 8less than
View Answer
Explanation: 8less than
a) Momentum conductivity and thermal conductivity
b) Coefficient of convection to thermal conductivity
c) Momentum diffusivity and thermal diffusivity
d) Interfacial force and viscous force
View Answer
Explanation: Prandtl’s number is the ratio of Momentum diffusivity and thermal diffusivity.
a) Npr = Cpµ/k
b) Npr = Cpk/µ
c) Npr = Cvµ/k
d) Npr = Cpµ
View Answer
Explanation: Prandtl’s number is the ratio of Momentum diffusivity and thermal diffusivity. Hence the formula is Npr = Cpµ/k.

b) Ratio of convective heat transfer to conductive heat transfer
c) Ratio of total heat transfer to conductive heat transfer
d) Ratio of total transfer to convective heat transfer
View Answer
Explanation: Nusselt number is the Ratio of convective heat transfer to conductive heat transfer.
a) hµ/k
b) hρ/k
c) hL/k
d) hΔTL/k
View Answer
Explanation: The nusselt number hL/k is the ratio of total heat transfer to onductive heat transfer.
a) Na = kcA(cai – ca)
b) Na = kcAΔc
c) Na = kcA(cai – ca)mean
d) Na = kcA(cai – ca)log mean
View Answer
Explanation: Δc is taken as the driving force and is true every time. It’s expression will change depending upon the conditions.
