Chemical Engineering MCQs designed for job test and interview preparation, particularly for fresh graduates, students, and candidates appearing in competitive exams. These multiple-choice questions cover important topics such as the fundamentals of chemical engineering, chemical processes, chemical reactions, process control, and instrumentation, along with other key concepts in the field.

A pipe has a porous section of length L as shown in the figure. Velocity at the start of this section of V0. If fluid leaks into the pipe through the porous section at a volumetric rate per unit area q(x/L)2, what will be axial velocity in the pipe at any „x‟? Assume incompressible one dimensional flow i.e., no gradients in the radial direction ?
A VX = V0 + q (x3/L2D)
B VX = V0 + ⅓q (x3/L2)
C VX = V0 + 2q (x2/LD)
D VX = V0 + (4/3) q (x3/L2D)
Correct Answer: VX = V0 + (4/3) q (x3/L2D)
