Given that, mass flowrate (kg/s) = [volume flowrate (m3/s)] x [density (kg/m3)]
First determine the density of methanol: (Confirm the substance that you deal with in
the problem, dont just simply take the density of water!)
Given that from Table B.1, the specific gravity (SG) for methanol is 0.792, thus the
density of methanol is 0.792 g/cm3.
Given that, rate of kinetic energy (J/s) = x [mass flowrate (kg/s)] x [velocity (m/s)]2
= 0.0105 J/s

At T =150C, = ?
Do interpolation, since the T = 150C falls between 100C and 200C:
At 100C, = 2.54 kJ/mol
At 200C, = 6.01 kJ/mol
