Consider the following pairs of design variable and its effect:

Higher exit velocity - More momentum rise and less downwash

Higher gas temperature - More buoyant rise

Smaller stack diameter - Higher exit velocity at constant flow

Taller stack - Lower total mass emitted

How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?

  • A.Only three
  • B.Only one
  • C.Only two
  • D.All four

Answer: A

Correct answer: Only three

Three are correct: a higher exit velocity gives more momentum rise and less downwash; a hotter gas is more buoyant and rises further; and a smaller diameter raises exit velocity at constant flow. The fourth is false - a taller stack does not reduce the mass emitted at all. It disperses the same mass more widely, which is a quite different thing.
