Question 1.
Define the Sherwood number.
Show hintHide hint
Think about how it defines different types of mass transfer.
Question 2.
What formula do we use to calculate the Reynolds number?
Show hintHide hint
Consider what factors influence flow dynamics.
3Question 3.
What does the Sherwood number represent?
- A ratio of heat transfer
- A ratio of convective mass transport to diffusive mass transport
- A measure of viscosity
Show hintHide hint
Think about how mass spreads in different environments.
4Question 4.
True or False: DNAPLs always float on water.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Recall the definitions of DNAPLs and LNAPLs.
Question 5.
Calculate steady-state mass transport flux given varying concentrations and temperatures for an oil spill incident.
Show hintHide hint
Remember to account for both diffusion and convective factors in your calculations.
Question 6.
Design an experiment to measure the impact of wind speed on oil spill dispersion in a lake.
Show hintHide hint
How will you simulate wind conditions, and what variables will you measure?
