Athick steel sheet of area 150 in.2 is exposed to air near the ocean. after a one-year period it was found to experience a weight loss of 485 g due to corrosion. to what rate of corrosion, in (a) mpy and (b) mm/yr, does this correspond? the density of steel is 7.9 g/cm3.

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.
