Very thin films are usually deposited under vacuum conditions to prevent contamination and ensure that atoms can fly directly from the source to the depositing surface without being scattered along the way.

a. To get an idea of how few and far between the air molecules are in a thin-film deposition chamber, determine the mean free path of a generic "air" molecule with an effective diameter of 0.25 nm at a pressure of 1.5 x 10-6 Pa and temperature of 300 K.

b. If the chamber is spherical with a diameter of 10 cm, estimate how many times a given molecule will collide with the chamber before colliding with another air molecule.

c. How many air molecules are in the chamber (treating "air" as an ideal gas)?

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
