A 4 X 8-ft solar collector has water circulating

A 4 X 8-ft solar collector has water circulating through it at the rate of 1.0 gallon per minute while exposed to sunlight with intensity 300 Btu/ft^2-hr. Fifty percent of that sunlight is captured by the collector and heats the water flowing through it. What would be the temperature rise of the water as it leaves the collector? where T_0= T_i + delta T and T_i is the rate of gallon per minute.

BOD of Algae

Large blooms of algae result from high nutrient loading in rivers and lakes, for example, as a result of runoff of fertilizers from agricultural fields. When the algae die, they biodegrade and consume oxygen. The amount of oxygen consumed is called the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). If the level of oxygen dissolved in water becomes too low, fishes become stressed and susceptible to viral or bacterial infections. In severe cases, fish kills result. A simplified empirical formula for algae is C6H15O6N. a) Write a balanced chemical reaction for the conversion of 1 mole of algal cells to carbon dioxide, water and ammonia (NH3). b) Calculate the theoretical BOD of algae (g BOD/g algae).
