You see, it didn't take a trade for the Baltimore Ravens to get a pro bowl player because they already had one waiting in the wings. Today in practice, Marcus Williams, who has been missing for the past couple of weeks, he officially returned again, because this all happened before, but he had missed some time before when his pec injury came back a little bit later, then missed some time with his hamstring injury, but it was always a bittersweet thing because when we saw him out there, he was out there playing with basically one arm. So now, hopefully that pec injury will be a lot better than it was before, but also that hamstring injury will be good to, I mean, it has to be good to go for him to be practicing, especially with how the Baltimore Ravens get down. Now, this is great news. This is amazing news. Glad that Marcus Williams is back. It's a beautiful thing. Almost said Marcus Peters is probably thinking about that pick 60 other night, but anyway, poor guy, because he's in such a bad situation with that terrible organization the Raiders are. But anyway, Marcus Williams, this is tricky, because I mean, you know he was watching, and you know he was watching the league leader in Interceptions, Mr. Geno Stone, and they said through eight games, the last person who had five Interceptions through the first eight games of the season was Ed Reed, Geno Stone. Hey! That boy is ballin', man. Shout out to Geno Stone, but you know Marcus Williams been watching every single game. You know Marcus Williams been watching every single snap. You know Marcus Williams been thinking, like, ooh. So now, and I wanna hear from y'all for sure on this, like what do you think the Baltimore Ravens should do with their lineup? Do you leave Geno Stone where he's been at and you find a spot for Marcus? Because you know that they love to have them three safeties on the field. Geno Stone, Marcus Williams, and Kyle Hamilton. And Kyle Hamilton does not normally typically play the regular safety role. He just, they use him everywhere. So what do you do?  Do you say, all right, Marcus Williams, you're back in the starting lineup. Do you let the money make the decision for you? Because if you follow the money, then yeah, Marcus Williams has just started from jump. Or do you go with something, we're trying to fix something that's not broken? Because Geno Stone, he certainly is not broken. This defense overall, I mean, last week, it was broken, but Geno Stone himself, him being the starting safety. Hey, what do you do? What do you do? Well, I really look forward to hearing and seeing y'all in the comment section and see what y'all are talking about. But there's a very, very tricky situation for those Baltimore Ravens. But we are glad that they're in this tricky situation. I like when stuff is made difficult like this because that means you have a lot of quality depth. So this is a great problem to have. Now, somebody else that they got back who is also a safety, I mean, he was a corner last year.  But anyway, Daryl Worley. Daryl Worley, he returned to practice. He got activated off of Endure Reserve. So he starts his three week window, his 21 day window where he can practice and within those 21 days, he has to be added to the active roster again. So again, hey, Ravens, they, why they didn't make a move at the trade deadline. No, a lot of us were disappointed, but they getting a lot of guys back every week. Somebody returning. Like a couple of last week where there was a doubt fair way, it was Tyler Wallace off of Endure Reserve. Now this week, Marcus Williams and now Daryl Worley off of Endure Reserve. So hey, them Ravengers. Dun, dun, dun, dun. Anyway, now with the good news, also came a little bit of the bad. Also people who did not practice, Gus Edwards. Even though Gus Edwards, the FedEx round player the week. So shout out to him. He say, he gonna play. Gus Edwards, he gonna play. But anyway, he didn't practice today. Odell Beckham, Jr. So there's that. And who knows what Odell Beckham, Jr. Could this be a vet rest day? Maybe. Is he still hurt? I don't believe that he flew back with the team playing because remember when Marlon Humphrey was doing his IG live after the game, we're looking for Odell. We didn't see no Odell there. But anyway, Ronnie Stanley, hopefully a rest day, maybe. Hopefully, let's see. Morgan Moses, a doubt fair way, rock your scene. So that's a long list of people who did not practice. That's a whole lot of people. So hopefully it is just a, hopefully it's just some rest days for some of those guys. Now, Jeff Zribick did highlight that both Odell Beckham, Jr., Morgan Moses and a doubt fair way, they all left Sunday's game at different points with injuries. And again, like I said, with Odell Beckham, Jr., that has been his thing. Every time he plays, he ends up leaving with an injury. Every game that he plays, he has left. And a lot of them he came back in, but at some point in time, he's left with injury. So he just been hurting, man. He has really been hurting. But hopefully he'll be good for the long haul, man. We really hope it'll be good for the long haul. But yeah, anyway, Jeff Zribick also talked about how with John Hobo, as far as the trade, they aligned. Nothing came to fruition, but Hobo highlighted how they not desperate right now. They weren't desperate for anything. And I know a lot of Ravens fans will not like hearing that. And I think that even if you're not desperate, hey, take advantage of your current situation. Make yours great situation even greater. Make it even better, make it even stronger. But the fact that they were not and are not desperate, then a good spot. Now he is saying that after the fact. Now, if they would have made a trade, I wouldn't have considered them being desperate at all. But they were in a spot to where if nothing happened, then all right, cool. But at the same time with Hobo saying that, I don't think he would come out and say, oh man, this team, they did us dirty. They did us nasty. We had this in place. We were already set. And oh, they okie-dokies. I don't think he's gonna say nothing like that.  But behind closed doors, it's probably a whole another conversation. That's Hobo's team keeping clean version of what he probably really wanted to say. He also talked about how with the injuries that, he said there's nothing to report that's concerning about any players that missed practice today. So take your word for it Hobo's because remember last week when Roquan Smith, when he missed Wednesday practice, the way that Hobo said it though, it's all about, it's not even what you say, it's how you say it. But when Roquan Smith missed last week's Wednesday practice, he was like, oh, you'll see when the injury report comes out there. Like he just kind of like alluded to that and didn't really like, he's like, let us know. Hello, that's Roquan Smith, man. That's missed a hundred million dollar. So I think you, I feel like we deserve to know. Not that we as fans are entitled to anything like that. Cause I know we sitting all the way at the end of the bar. Don't think we forgot about that, Mr. Jonathan Hobo. But anyway, the fact that he said that though, now he's not serious to report that, okay, cool. So if he's saying that down, I'm going to expect every last one of those guys who missed today's practice to be there tomorrow. Every last one, if it ain't serious, every single person, they better be out there and practice tomorrow, Jonathan. Or else, you know what I'ma do? Probably nothing, but yeah, but you know, I just, I just had to say that. But anyway, something about Roquan Smith that I appreciated about his game, because you know, Roquan Smith, Roquan Smith is like the nicest, meanest guy in the world. Because the way he talks, his mannerisms and what super, super nice, he tells, super respectful. But when he's on the field, man, he just, he turns into a different animal, that man. Roquan Smith is nice, man. He is nice. I remember when they first made the trade. I'm like, all right, Roquan Smith, the owner is one of the best linebackers in the league. But then when you get to see it every week, it's like, whoa, like, hold up. Now, he is some serious, but he said that he actually connected with Bobby Wagner before he even got to the league to get like tips and tricks from him. And of course, we got the Seahawks coming up. So shout out to Bobby Wagner. Now with Lamar Jackson, it's funny because Lamar Jackson, a reporter asked him about his record against the NFC. And Lamar Jackson was like, no, no, no, no, no, I don't want to hear it. I don't want to speak about it. I don't want to answer. None of that. He tried to shut all of that down. He said, we're just trying to win every game. We don't care if it's AFC, NFC. We just out there to play, trying to get the wins. That's it. That's it. You don't want to get caught up in all that stuff for all this record and that, no, no, no, no. He wants to win. And Roquan Smith said it, too. Said the only stat that he cared about is winning and losing. Now he did acknowledge that last week, they sucked. Like, they didn't suck, but the defense was, they were slacking and they were slipping for sure. But hopefully this week, ooh, this is such a tough game against the Seahaw. Ooh, it's gonna be tough. Them corners, ooh, them corners better be ready because you got DK Metcalfe. You got Tyler Lockett. You got Jackson Smith and the Jigba. Well, and especially him, because he got all the confidence in the world right now after that catch and that game went in touchdown the other day. And you know what I was thinking? Like, what makes it even better for him? I mean, either way, it would have been great because this game went in touchdown. I remember when it flashed, like when I got the notification, we saw it on like Twitter and stuff. Oh, Jackson Smith and Jigba called a game in touchdown. I was thinking, okay, Geno Smith, he threw it to the end zone or whatnot, Jackson Smith and Jigba, he called it. But then they showed the replay, they showed the highlight, and it was like a screen pass. It was a pass to the flag, he threw it to them and he just, he got the yak, he got like 10 yards of yak and got in the end zone. So I'm like, okay, both are impressive. Cause again, especially that's clutch mode. But yeah, we don't want to see none of that on Sunday. So no, thank you. Now, back to Marcus Williams. Mr. Tricky. Marcus Williams, they asked if he expects to play this Sunday and Marcus Williams said, we'll see what happens, we'll see what happens.  Now, in my opinion, I mean, I don't even think this is just my opinion, but I think the injuries, it's a little more adversity than just injuries with Marcus Williams right now. Cause I really do believe like, this is an extremely tricky situation with Geno Stone.  You can't just take him off the field. And I feel like you can't reduce his snaps. You just can't do that. You do not want to mess up his momentum. You do not want to fix what's not broken. So, hey, this is where I'm not envious of the Ravens coaching staff at all because it's their job to figure out how to make this thing work. Now, again, like I said earlier in this video, it is a great problem to have, but it is a problem. Not a bad problem. I mean, is there ever a good problem? But it is, it's not a bad problem, but it's a problem. It's a tricky situation. And they really got to figure this thing out. But I just, I feel like you, you cannot take Geno Stone off the field. You cannot reduce his snaps. Now Marcus Williams is a baller too now. He is a baller too. But right now, right here, right now, you have to stick with the hot hand in my opinion. You have to leave Geno Stone out there. You cannot take him off. I think that Marcus Williams snaps should be reduced. His role should be changed. His role should be altered, but you cannot mess with Geno Stone right now because he's hot. He's hot. It just, in my opinion, it would not make sense if you took him off to put Marcus Williams. And I know Marcus Williams is the starter. I know Marcus Williams is making all the money in the world and safety right now for the Baltimore Ravens. But Ravens, you cannot mess this up.


Hi friends happy Saturday. It is just before 7 a.m. And I of course am at the grocery store So I'm going to be heading in to Fred Meyer, which is a Kroger store to do some shopping I also have a trader Joe's a Walmart and a Costco haul coming your way as well So if you want to see all of the groceries that I picked up for the week from all of the stores Hopefully I'll give you some great ideas and at the end I'm going to show you both my meal plan for the week as well as what is on the agenda for meal prep So if you want to see all the good stuff for the upcoming week, then all you have to do is stay tuned So here's what I picked up from Walmart as part of my groceries for the week I just did a quick Walmart pickup. What is not shown is just a case of water So I grabbed two bags of the birds eye veggie made mac and cheese. I love this last time I did a pickup they were out of this so they substituted the penny, which is good But I think that the mac and cheese is a lot better So I was excited that they did have the two bags that I had ordered Also, I've been wanting to pick this up for the last few orders and it has been out of stock This is a cute little four tablespoon measuring cup. I wanted this for coffee A lot easier than putting it into individual tablespoons two bucks and again, they've been out of it So finally they had it in stock. So I picked that up. I also grabbed some Velveeta slices We are going to be going camping and I wanted these four hamburgers one smart point of slice So not bad at all Also fat-free cream cheese Fred Meyer does not have this so I had to pick it up at Walmart As you know, I just throw it in the freezer until I'm ready to use it So I picked up two fat-free cream cheese. I did get a lot of cheese I grabbed the shredded part skim mozzarella cheese for pizzas and recipes I also grabbed Colby and Monterey Jack for my husband This is just regular full fat cheese, but I did want to show this to you guys a lot of you have Transition from low-fat or fat-free cheeses. So I'll give you the points for just regular Colby and Monterey Jack And then I also picked up the Colby and Monterey Jack full-fat cheese slices Mint extract. I really like to have this in my coffee. So I grabbed a container of the mint extract Couple of yogurts. I really like the oikos triple zero in chocolate. This is so good in a smart cake parfait So I picked up one of those and another one of the light and fit lemon meringue again I really like this with the orange smart cakes in a parfait Sugar-free Devils food cake mix This is for an upcoming recipe that you guys will be seeing in meal prep and I got these for my husband He doesn't like chocolate or white chocolate and I have bought the strawberry ones before so this is a big box of the chewy Yogurt granola bars seven strawberry and seven blueberry. These are actually really good So I picked that up for his lunches Of course my Hershey's whipped topping You know that I love this great on parfaits great on coffee just great on desserts in general especially on those little sugar-free pudding cups just put a little dollop for zero points so good and Lastly besides the case of water. I grabbed some silk almond coconut milk Unsweetened. This is my favorite milk by far for milk alternative So that is everything that I picked up this week from Walmart. So here's what I picked up from Costco There isn't much food, but I wanted to add this to my grocery haul just to kind of show you guys a few of the food Items that I grabbed so of course bath tissue best price ever at Costco 1699 for this huge pack this lasts us a few months in our house So definitely a good deal Costco have these really cute pull over fleece sweatshirts on sale for 799 so I got this grayish black colored one loved it. They also have their joggers. I love this purple color I'll probably end up wearing these more like pajamas, but these were 899 Bargain and a half. They're super super soft. So if your Costco has them, they're currently on sale I've been seeing this all over and this is the good foods avocado salsa I heard that this salsa is absolutely amazing. So I wanted to grab it I think it would be really good on chicken any type of Mexican dish even on eggs. So I picked it up I cannot wait to give it a try. I also got this really cute skirt It is kind of one of those thick waist banded skirts And then it goes right below the knee and flares out. I thought it was really cute And it was on clearance for five bucks cannot beat it and then as you know, I've been loving these Tyson black and chicken breasts I really truly love these. They are my very favorite thing. They're so easy You can just simply microwave them throw them in the air fryer pop them in the oven. They taste delicious I picked up another bag of those $14 and Then my favorite chicken of course comes from Costco in my opinion They have the best price for quality chicken. This particular chicken breast does not have rib meat So it is a true zero-point chicken breast. It was just under $25 here for about eight pounds So it is $2.99 a pound, which is not bad for a really quality fresh natural chicken breast So they come in these individual little packages. There's about two chicken breasts per package So I just split them down the seams and throw them in my freezer. So easy easy I also picked up my husband a bottle of Irish death beer just as a nice surprise So that was everything that I grabbed at Costco. My total was about $92. So here's what I picked up this week at Trader Joe's I just mainly went for mozzarella cheese But as you can see I left with way more than mozzarella cheese. So let me show you what I picked up So first non-food item flowers Trader Joe's has the best price on flowers $3.99 for these and they literally last weeks three to four weeks. So such a good deal I like to put them in a vase on my island in my kitchen. So I grabbed those I picked up two containers of the Trader Joe's coconut cold brew Coffee concentrate. So this jar makes four 12 ounce cups of coffee Zero calories. Well, I think it has calories. Yeah, 10 calories, but zero points For coffee. I heard this is absolutely amazing So I picked up some creamer to pair with it. You could add a little bit of flavoring So I'm really excited to try this. This again is the coconut cold brew coffee concentrate I heard this is a seasonal item. So it probably won't be around forever So I grabbed two it is not refrigerated. So you can just leave it in your pantry So I'm really excited to make kind of a cold brew coffee with those yum I have not had these in so long and they sounded so good. These are the Trader Joe's Bomba peanut snacks. These are a peanut butter puff. They legit taste like peanut butter I opened them. Let me show you what they look like They're like a little puff, but they have a creamy delicious peanut butter on them So the smart points are a little bit high for a full serving But I'm gonna give you some options on the screen here by knocking down the number of Bombas that you have it lowers the number of points and they really truly are absolutely delicious Satisfying because of the peanut butter. Yum. I also grabbed these I know they're a little bit high in points, but I thought how good does this sound with a cup of coffee and an egg For breakfast. This is the Trader Giotto's Chocolate almond biscotti. Look at these you guys. Yum And on the back, they are only 120 calories, but they do have 8 grams of sugar So that's what kind of bumps up the points, but I thought I'd give them a try They again would be nice to have with a cup of coffee If you're only counting points for this, that's not too bad of a breakfast. So I'm gonna toss those in my pantry This is another thing that I rediscovered I used to eat these all the time. These are so incredibly delicious They're great by themselves. They're amazing with hummus. This is the Trader Joe's roasted gorgonzola crackers So good you guys. I mean so good. So here's your nutritional information It is a total of 31 crackers for the smart points on the screen now Of course, you can bump down the number of crackers and bump down the points There are just a really really good snack You literally could eat them by yourself to lower the points of a snack and they are so good My husband wanted apple juice. So of course, this isn't for me But I will put the points on the screen that way you guys kind of know how many points are in it just for future Reference if you didn't want to pick it up for yourself Now I grabbed this coconut creamer to have with my coconut cold brew because clearly I'm digging some coconut Zero smart points for this. It is creamy. It is delicious. So I grabbed that and again I'm gonna pair that with that coconut cold brew coffee And this is what I went to Trader Joe's for which is the organic shredded mozzarella Now this is going to take the place of the light shredded mozzarella until it returns next year This mozzarella is two smart points per serving you guys. It is so Good it is creamy and full of flavor so good and it is so expensive. It's 499 a package So I grabbed two I just want to have it on hand. It's a low point option.  I seem to find myself in a pickle where I'm cutting up for peppers a lot So I thought I'm just gonna grab this man moulin j'ai toi Peppers I'm just gonna throw it in my freezer and then I can just pop a handful in my eggs or my breakfast So just to have on hand they were so cheap and of course zero points And then we've been out of these for a while. This is the Trader Joe's mashed potatoes These are like little pellets of mashed potatoes All you do is add a little water and they are real Creamy thick potatoes and the smart points is so good on them so good Really quick easy way to make potatoes for a weeknight dinner when you don't have a lot of time So picked up a bag of those so that is everything that I grabbed this week at Trader Joe's So here's my grocery haul from Fred Meyer or Kroger It is called different things in different areas, but this is everything that I picked up at my local Fred Meyer So first I grabbed some new creamer. I have heard that this almond breeze creamer is really good This is the vanilla. It is the same smart points as the coffee mate sugar free So it is one smart point for up to three tablespoons.  I love this You can have the zero points worth of this on a dessert and it just kind of finishes it off Makes it taste delicious. So that is a staple in my house I also picked up a jar of roasted red peppers and this is just in water. So these are zero smart points This is for an upcoming recipe Also, I grabbed some dill relish. We will be going camping this next weekend So I wanted to have this for hot dogs hamburgers and my husband is going to have tuna fish sandwiches this week for lunch So I grabbed some dill relish For a recipe. I grabbed a container of barilla Pesto this is a little high in points, but you don't have to use very much and it is so good This is a really good brand of pesto. So I picked that up Canadian bacon. This is for breakfast sandwiches while we're camping. We're going to be doing English muffin breakfast sandwiches. So I grabbed some Canadian bacon Turkey dogs. These are for camping. These are the lowest point ones that I could find at my store And I believe these are two smart points a piece which is not bad And then you pair it with a bun and you have a pretty low point dinner or lunch for camping So I have the uncured turkey breast franks eggs Pete and Jerry's organic eggs were on sale again. These eggs are actually really really good 4.99 a dozen. So I grabbed a dozen of those Of course another pack of my favorite bacon the private selection center cut bacon I love this bacon and I need this for an upcoming recipe mozzarella cheese again, this is for a dinner recipe this next week And this is just a big block of fresh mozzarella cheese Natural turkey breast. This is for my lunch prep. So you will see that on meal prep Monday So I'm going to be making a delicious wrap for lunch. So I grabbed some Applewood smoked natural turkey breast And for those wraps I picked up another pack of the tomorrow's carb-wise premium white I like these wraps better than the Olay. I like them both, but I've kind of grown pretty attached to these They're a little more expensive not by much less than 50 cents But I really like them the texture of the taste. So I picked those up for lunch prep Canot tuna fish, of course, this is for my husband's sandwiches for the upcoming work week I had a coupon for the simple truth tomato paste in the tube. So I just grabbed it just to throw it in my pantry I'm about out of my Trader Joe's tomato paste I really like it in the tube. It lasts longer. It's easier to use You don't have to open a can for one tablespoon and throw away the rest So I just really prefer it in the tube. So I picked that up Also a couple packs of rice just to have on hand for easy side dishes more for my husband But the uncle Ben's ready rice and chicken and broccoli And then the Kroger 90 second jasmine rice just in a hurry if we want some jasmine rice really quickly That is our favorite rice. So I picked those up Another package of the reduced sugar dry cranberries just to have on hand I really like these in salads and I may add these to my wrap. So I grabbed them just to have them available Picked up some marinades. I've never bought the Korean barbecue, but I love these grillmates marinades Love them. So I grabbed the Korean barbecue and then I also grabbed the mesquite, which is my favorite And some fajita mix, which is for an upcoming dinner recipe and everything else I have for you is produce So I have a bag of shredded lettuce. This is for my wraps for lunch meal prep For avocados, which is always which is also for my lunch wraps Arugula, which is for a recipe and then I think I might toss some of this in my wrap for that really good peppery lettuce taste Cherries these were on sale for a dollar 99 a pound again.  So I picked that up A red and orange pepper for a dinner recipe Three ruma tomatoes again for a recipe Green onions and asparagus.

This there is no coincidences and when both of these stories break at the same time makes me sit up and take notice So the large cap fund containing a six top crypto assets including Bitcoin Ethereum Litecoin Bitcoin cash chain link and Cardano is going to be registered with the SEC Vice president of legal at grayscale Craig Psalm says this We hold our products to a higher standard because this is what investors want and what we believe they deserve events such as the large cap Fund becoming our third SEC reporting company and the additional form 10 filing signal that there is Continued investor interest in gaining exposure to the growing digital currency ecosystem within existing regulatory frameworks. I know we are not big proponents of Regulation I know some people in the community just hate it, but I'm telling you I've said this a thousand times We need a little bit of clarity to really get this thing moving and if we don't there is so much Ambiguity out there that big businesses and big money really can't get in So just give us a little bit of regulatory clarity and we can actually move forward And I think this is a step in the right direction Given the approval the large cap fund will now have to start following quarterly 10 Q's and annual reports 10 K's along with its grayscale Bitcoin and Ethereum funds Additionally qualified investors who purchase shares in the funds private placement will have the required holding reduced from 12 months to 6 months under rule 144 and here we can just see the actual filing right here SEC form 10 and blah blah blah blah blah. So that's great. Good for them So here's the big thing what it says right here about holding period reduced from 12 months to 6 months there is a Unlock period that is coming up around the 17th 18th 19th and going all the way to the 28th of this month in July And I can just tell you that for all the things that are happening people look at that and like oh, no Gray scales, you know unlock all their Bitcoin, but it's just like Willie who says it's like the hotel in California You can check in but you can never leave and check out you never leave whatever Really what happens is Bitcoin goes into these into gray scale and they just issue these funds This paper this it won't kind of like an ETF and what they're releasing is the actual Lockup period or the actual funds that are in there and it's not the actual Bitcoin so they can sell and do whatever else they want with a bit With the paper as it goes up or down. That's not the big thing. So when people start talking about odd There's gonna be this huge crash. It's not They're not selling Bitcoin Just the other parts of it and that is it. So that is the first part I think to one of one of the bigger stories and look gray scales the adults in the room Which leads us to our next point where we talk about gray scale and BNY Mellon. What's going on here? Well, this is from the actual website of BNY Mellon. So we know it's actually legit July 13th gray scale investments announced today that is selected BNY Mellon as an asset servicing provider For a grayscale Bitcoin trust, that's great than the again banks getting into the foray of crypto currency BNY Mellon will provide gray scale Bitcoin trust with fund accounting and Administrative's administration effective October 1st 2021 Additionally, it is anticipated that BNY Mellon will provide transfer agency and ETF services For the grayscale Bitcoin trust upon its conversion to an ETF Why is this so big? Who cares if BNY Mellon gets into it? Well, it's not about what you know It's who you know and guess what BNY Mellon has a nice little 2.2 trillion assets under management and 41.7 trillion assets under custody and administration and they are in 35 countries So if you don't think this is like a big deal for what, you know BNY Mellon getting involved in a cryptocurrency and handling all these things I Don't know what to tell you. It is a big deal. So to finish this up The agreement will offer grayscale improved scalability resiliency and automation through BNY Mellon's market leading platform including BNY's proprietary ETF center They got an old center for the ETFs which offers technology Specifically designed to support digital asset ETFs. Look what the SEC is looking for is safety They don't want people to get screwed over and I know people will debate this all day long That's their job, right? That's their job And I assume that some people don't do their job But a lot of people do and I think what they're looking for is assurance There's not all this manipulation and then they can actually trust something and you know They can put it out to the people and they won't get like I said screwed over So I think with BNY Mellon coming aboard and going look here's all the information that you want We've already done a ton of these right now. We're doing we can get this out to people. Just trust us Let's do a filing. Let's make this happen. Bing bang boom. That's it. So then to finish up Michael son and shine CEO of grayscale investment says BNY Mellon has a long-standing Reputation as a trusted provider and has established one of the first teams dedicated to servicing the growing digital currency asset class We are pleased that BNY Mellon will join a group of grayscales best-in-class service providers helping us deliver a seamless industry-leading Investment experience and I couldn't have said it any better. So look, I think this is big news We'll see it all plays out. We've been hearing about ETFs since 2012 and it hasn't happened yet But we have never had these rails like we have right now. So I'm positive. I'm cautiously optimistic and we'll see what happens. Let me know what you think in the comment section Let's move on to our next piece About the good old trading volume of cryptocurrency. This was an interesting one Because there's multiple layers here and it talks about crypto currencies on a slump trading volumes are down 40% Across all the exchanges in June Bitcoin hit 28,000 which sucked, but here we are I think it actually might hit that again in July. That's just me But the report pointed to And they're talking about why this all happened the report to China as a major catalyst Remember that China Aquinas Reuters, which reported on an earlier Monday China's latest of many efforts over the years to crack down the industry have had a greater impact than ever before Let me show you a picture of what I'm talking about This is always the thing China bans Bitcoin all the time, right? So just so you know if you're new to this space China's banned Bitcoin and miners and everything else since 2017 They did in 2018 209 20 and they're gonna keep doing it because they're gonna keep Re-emphasizing that they banned it and that lame stream media is gonna pick it up and go hold the bin Bitcoin They already done it. So like all the different Bitcoin miners that are moving good I thought it'd take a lot longer. I thought it was gonna be like the free market enterprise They're gonna slowly come here. China just gave us a gift and said get out and guess where they're going Here Which I'm happy So the Chinese crackdown has caused a lot of fear which are showing up in markets said Teddy Vili chief investment officer at Purval or Purvaya group The digital digital asset ecosystem got punched in the face So it's currently up against the ropes versus fighting in the middle of the ring typically when you have large sell-offs participants are quite fearful and pullback their ships and this is This is the mentality of everybody out there But the the average retail investor doesn't really dig deep and find and figure out what's going on We know what's going on. This is good news and in a little bit I'm going to bring in my friend Ian and he's going to talk about the different things that are going on in Austin right now with all the Bitcoin miners coming in because he is the boots in the ground guy Who can tell us exactly all these Bitcoin miners from china? And they all want to be here, which is great So also factors behind the crackdown try at China order to halt the crypto as it pairs to launch its own state back Digital currency the digital yuan good for them and the shutter mining operations 50 to 60 percent great. Whatever so I find it odd though That of all the things that are happening. There was an article that just came out Which talked about bit main co-founder Wu says regulatory pressure is healthy for crypto and this was his direct quote Crypto billionaire said that while regulatory pressure has increased the higher level of interest Will benefit the reputation of crypto overall So that while so we're talking about regulatory pressure meaning that hey If we want to actually be taken seriously We need a little regulation and that's from a guy who just got booted out of his country So I think there's something to be said there to finish this up Additionally the emerging esg narrative or clean energy narrative around bitcoins proof of work consensus mechanism And negative regulatory undertones from the financial action task force has really caused a big plummet Again, we're going to take a look at what's going on in austin a little bit lot of clean energy here in texas just saying Once these stories begin to permeate the market in may A sentiment dropped to single-digit levels on a scale of 1 to 150 sentiment analysis said nick mancini research analyst for crypto sentiment analytics Platform and trade the chain. That's what we always use every time we're doing these videos So check that out link in the description sentiment analysis trading all that great stuff. So whoops So eventually this resulted in trading volume for bitcoin dropping when nearly half Down 32 and that's no good and which is also very odd And and nick also put this out a couple of minutes ago before I did this video and he talked about the cpi the consumer price index so Inflation is good for us as far as like crypto investors because it shows that all that money printing Where all the economists and all the federal reserves like it won't affect anything. Well, here we are The cpi the consumer price index just came out today price index raises 5.4 or the cost of goods is skyrocketing consumer price increased 5.4 in june from a year earlier the biggest monthly gain since august 2008 Excluding food and energy inflation increased 4.5 largest moves since september of 1991 And used car and truck prices comprised about a third of the total cpi increase because all the difference To not tools tools and and supplies of things that you actually need to build these vehicles, especially right here in america Went up steel automation robotics anything you want to think glass Wood not that wood is used but wood's gone up tremendously. So again, we see these stories that would Be positive as far as like what's going on and would actually be good for crypto and digital assets But yet Let me take a look at the market. We're still down. So I think people it doesn't matter what we say Sometimes not because we're the only ones that actually know what's going on in the real universe here in in crypto land Uh, but the again, I think people just get scared. They don't really realize the benefits that are happening So that'll lead me to my next point which i'm going to bring in ian Who's over there at token metrics and he lives in austin and he's going to tell us what's going on In texas as far as bitcoin miners and what's happening Okay, so as promised what I did was I brought in somebody who actually has uh, a pretty good information set as to what is going as far as boots on the ground for this ridiculous Cryptocurrency or a bitcoin mining situation as everybody moves around everybody welcome the show welcome back to the show I should say ian bolina ian what's up Doing well doing well. Uh, how are you? Not too bad. I see you got a snazzy like I said a snazzy new background token metrics Yes, uh over here in austin texas and things have been going pretty well in terms of bitcoin mining So definitely here to discuss any insights. Yeah, so the insights is like this I'm getting pretty ticked off But these it seems like we get these positive stories But then we get these negative fud stories about all well poor china You know they're the letting go of all these different miners and and they got kicked out And i'm like I don't care what happens and what really is going on in china What I care about is how the infrastructure is being moved from one country into other countries and especially in individual regions So you live in austin and when we were talking you told me something interesting About the miners that are coming over there. So let us know what's going on there as far as like uh in in country So what do we got? Yes, so lots of miners from china have been moving over here to texas because texas has lots of clean energy Is was one of the few states that's not really tied to the whole country's uh grid But the main thing i'm saying is so i met a ceo of a crypto company for bitcoin mining with clean energy And he told me a business here is blooming lots of miners from china coming over here primarily because Even though crypto here is not as Open as other parts of the world. Yeah, there's less political risk All right, so somebody can come here establish a business And not be afraid of the government coming here and taking the business Right because here there's just more freedom in that sense. Yeah, and that's makes sense. Go ahead Plus also having a place like texas or other parts of the country with clean energy If because now bitcoin miners are getting into the marketing business ilan musk and tesla kind of called them up by putting them on front street by saying Bitcoin is not really An energy efficient so now all these miners are looking to reinvent themselves So what better place than to come to texas or other parts of the world like this It yeah, it is interesting and then here's here's not an interesting thing Uh, I think one of those tesla factories is right down the street from you guys in in austin. Am I correct? I mean Somewhere in austin actually in this building. I mean there's also rumors that tesla might be opening an office here So tesla is basically taking over austin texas in essence I I find it very interesting about one thing and that is that you know elan talks about clean energy And all of a sudden he's in one of the great states that has a ton of clean energy and a ton of land and a ton of space If you're if you're not from texas, you don't really realize like just how vast texas is now Alaska's course is is a much bigger state But it's one of the biggest states think the second biggest state in america and we just have just sprawling lands And we have a lot of nuclear. Well more so wind and solar So so again real quick when that's when that ceo was talking to you about it when he says business was booming Was he talking about the people coming in was he talking about building infrastructure? Or was he just talking about requests from different people Uh, uh, who's who's talking about people coming in uh new customers coming in and just the level of interest In bitcoin mining in texas prior to other past years So they definitely did see a shift because we pretty much china had over half of the hashing power and bitcoin And now the hashing rate dropped almost 30 percent. So that's migrating to to the us So in a way, I think it's beneficial long term for bitcoin because now China doesn't have too much control of bitcoin hashing power, which I think is great. I'm so happy with that I don't I never liked to go over there. And that's just how I felt but um, we talked Yeah, white likewise, right? We had uh, we had chet everett on from winstone He's also over there in texas and he said the same exact thing a lot of people coming in He talked about but the one thing that he did say which was interesting to me was that his their whole game is infrastructure building infrastructure for these miners. He goes These guys just don't get it. He goes they come over here and they think that we're going to set him up in a month He goes it's going to take a year plus to get everything going So I know that the business is booming, but I don't see These miners just moving over and just kind of just building it all up All of a sudden, but I'm glad that they're coming here as opposed to I don't know casik stand or some crazy place like that So yeah, so I can see it. So okay So anything else going on over there austin in austin as far as like blockchain technology that type of thing Yeah, I mean I moved here one of the main reasons there's a huge crypto community here almost every single which is a crypto event and there's lots of interest so Not just miami is becoming a crypto capital of the u.s But also austin so the way I view it is you have Wall Street that moved to miami during the pandemic then you had silken valley that moved to austin texas So you have basically vcs and austin and you have Hedge funds moving to to miami. So for me since I'm more of a long-term valley investor This has been a great community and a great scene to be here in in crypto Yeah, I agree and I'm going to do the same thing with Puerto Rico I think there's a lot of crypto people over there. We'll see how it all works out and then Ian before we take off Let me just share my screen real quick. Ian if you guys remember for uh, gosh What was it six seven months ago or so we did a nice little video About doing your own research and he was able to graciously tell us two different ways to do it First of all was his was the old-fashioned way to look up all the information You know find out, you know who the team was look behind it read the white paper and it was great You can find that all for free at dan teaches crypto.com. It is in module four is a very first video So Ian, I think that's like one of the most popular videos We have on the channel because everybody wants to know how you turn 20 000 to 5 million and then on top of that There's a link over to uh, Ian's channel So I have to tell you for thanks for coming on the show So I'll just give you a nice little plug over there at token metrics real quick. Tell us about it What's going on? Yeah, so thank you. Thank you for all the support. Thank you for the Interest of your audience in token metrics. We always want to give crypto customers or crypto people a better Better insights into becoming smart investors using data analytics and machine learning We're currently doing a reg cf crowdfund right now. We're testing the waters. So our crypto community has been indicating interest to Basically buy equity in token metrics right now. We've already raised over Three and a half million on we funder you can check it out by going to we funder.com Slash token metrics and our target is is uh four four million.  Yeah, we yeah, no worries. Yeah, so this is a way for our community to get Oh, wow. Yeah, so it's a chance for our community to get equity in token metrics The minimum investment is $100 and we could have gone and raised money to vc But for us wanted to follow the crypto ethos But do it in a legal manner because right now the they're still unclear Oversights into crypto regulations here in the us So this was the best option for us to give our community and customers a chance to get ownership in token metrics So thank you for the support and appreciate everything. Yeah, no problem. And then uh real quick because everyone's gonna ask Uh, so rob, uh, you must have gotten paid for this. You got to must have paid for this. You don't understand Like in this community, it's it's us against everybody, right? We're battling the government We're battling fud. We're battling the lame stream media So like like when I get ian ian to come on the show and uh, he's super busy I'll plug his stuff all day long ian. Thanks for coming on No money and all that stuff. I think I'm actually do a little uh a little digging into what you just talked about as far as we funder So my man, thanks for coming on. I appreciate it anything any last words of wisdom for the uh institution Sorry for the retail investor out there I mean think long term When in doubt zoom out We we we all believe cryptos is going to be the future. This is the next Evolution of the internet. This is open finance. So don't look at the day to day the month to month Think long term. That's where the real money is as a value investor in crypto Or in any capital market Exactly. I wish people would just zoom out and stop trying to chase pumps You're only you're only going to fail just dollar cost average value cost average do a split of both and just Set it and forget it. All right, ian. Thanks for coming on man. I appreciate it. All right. Thank you All right, so that's it. So I hope that helped. Uh, look, um I think again that things are going to be uh doing pretty bad In the rest of this month July so just be prepared just immensely be prepared that things are going to drop But the question you have to ask yourself is am I a short-term holder short-term trader? Or am I a long-term investor and that's really what it comes down to on this channel. I can't give you advice I i'm it's just investment opinion not investment advice.  But for me personally, I'm just going to hold to this because I see some very bright days ahead Coming up this year 2021. So anyhow, that's it. So look if you like that video and you found value give it a thumbs up Give it a like also consider subscribing a lot of things we talk about on this channel are very time sensitive And over on dan clips, which is that little thing right down there says dan clips That's our second channel and we just did a deep dive into avalanche And why I think it is the amazon of uh cryptocurrencies and uh, you can check it out over there when it goes live Maybe today or tomorrow. So that's it. So thanks for watching. I appreciate it. See you on the next one


Good afternoon everyone. What we will do initially is solve one or two three problems and then go ahead for interactions. So, I will not project this, but let us say I will do three slightly different problems from the combustion sheet. I hope all of you have the combustion sheet. So, let me look at CS1. It says Heptane C7H16 and molecular weight of 100.203 is burnt with 50 percent excess air. So, we have to determine stoichiometric air field ratio. Of course, when you put excess air, there is no connection to the stoichiometric air field ratio. When you find actual air field ratio, you will require the 50 percent excess and the third part is to find the oxygen in the products. If you have a stoichiometric reaction, ideally you should have 0 oxygen in the product and if you have 50 percent excess air, you will have certain oxygen in the product and finally, you need to find the calorific value.  So, this tells me that I need 7 O2 for forming the 7 CO2 and I will require 4 O2 to get into this H2O. So, 7 plus 4 would give me 11 O2 and this would just be 11 multiplied by 3.76. So, here on the right side, I will just put 11 multiplied by 3.76 N2. So, this should be my balanced reaction for the stoichiometric case and you can see. Now, if I want to calculate the air field ratio, this is 1 let us say this is 1 kilo mole. So, fuel is 1 k mole, it corresponds to 100.203 kilograms and air there are 11 kilo moles of oxygen. So, it is 11 multiplied by 32 plus 11 multiplied by 3.76 multiplied by 28. So, I will just get this. So, this will give me 1510.1 roughly kilogram. So, if I get air field ratio, you will see that it is 1510.1 upon 100.23 and this is roughly equal to 15.0 or nearly 15.1. So, at this point you can see that C7 H16 is roughly in the petrol range for the fuel and as I said for methane, the air field ratio is just over 17 and asymptotically most of the hydrocarbon should give you around 14.7. So, heptane gives around 15, diesel will give you slightly lesser than that which is C12. So, you can see roughly this air to fuel stoichiometric ratio is around 15.1. If I need 50 percent excess air, the mass of air will increase by 50 percent. So, I will just multiply 1.5 into 1510.1. This means even air to fuel ratio actual would be 1.5 times air to fuel ratio stoichiometric. And for finding the oxygen present in the products, you can see that if I have 1.5 times the air, then I will have the following reaction C7 H16. So, if I multiply 11 multiplied by 1.5, I will get 16.5 oxygen and 16.5 multiplied by 3.76 is the amount that is 62.04 kilo moles of nitrogen. If I put here, I would get 7 CO2 plus 8 H2O. I will have 5.5 kilo moles of oxygen remaining and 62.04 kilo moles of nitrogen remaining. So, total moles of products is 7 plus 815 plus 520 and 67.54 moles and oxygen out of that is 5.5 upon 67.54. So, that will give me around 8.14 percent. So, this is something that you can keep in mind and then of course, I can convert this is molecular weight is 44, molecular weight is 18, molecular weight is 32, molecular weight is 28. I can convert this entire set into a mass and then calculate the fraction of O2 by mass. It would be slightly different, but you can do that exercise. And then we will come to the calorific value. So, you realize that I will need the balanced stoichiometric reaction for it and the balance of a stoichiometric reaction has C7H16 plus 11 O2 plus 11 times 3.76 nitrogen giving 7 CO2, 8 H2O and the remaining nitrogen. So, if I want the calorific value, I need the heat of reaction under standard conditions of 1 atmosphere and 298 Kelvin or 25 degree C. So, I should first find out H of reactants. So, you realize that the reactants are made up of C7H16 and it is given to you that the heat of formation of heptane is minus 187 8 to 0 kilo joule per kilo mole. There are 11 moles of oxygen, but all of them have 0 as the enthalpy of formation because that is by definition the reference state and then there is 11 multiplied by 3.76 moles of nitrogen all of them also have 0. So, the enthalpy of the reactants is just minus 187 8 to 0. This is multiplied by 1 because that is sorry this is per kilo mole. This is because there is only 1 kilo mole of heptane in our reaction. Now, if I want to find H of products, you realize that there are 7 CO2's. So, with the information given to you, you can find the product enthalpy as 7 multiplied by minus 393 pi 46. Then there are 8 H2O's. So, plus 8 multiplied by I will assume it is liquid because that is the enthalpy of formation given to you is minus 285 857. So, this is 7 kilo moles multiplied by kilo joule per kilo mole. So, the answer is entirely here also sorry the answer is in kilo joules and then you will see that the remaining thing is only nitrogen and at standard condition we are calculating everything at standard condition. So, that will have a value of 0. So, this thing I will just write down 7 multiplied by 393 546 plus 8 multiplied by 285 857 all these with a negative value minus 5041678 kilo joule. So, delta HR would be minus 5041678 minus 187820 that will give me 485 with a minus sign here 4853858 kilo joule or I will say it is 4123 4853.858 mega joule and now this is for 1 kilo mole and if I want it on a per kg basis per kilo mole of C 7 at 16, but that corresponds to 100.203 kilograms. So, on a per kg basis calorific value is the negative of 485 3.85 divided by 100.23. So, roughly I will say it around 48 mega joule per kg and this is roughly what you should get for the higher heating values of most hydrocarbon fuels something between 42 to 48. So, this is one problem that we could do then I will just take up CS 9 it is a different kind of problem. We say methane CH 4 is burnt with atmospheric air. So, which means that there is oxygen and there is nitrogen and it is known that the mixture is rich. So, it is not a stoichiometric case it is a rich mixture. So, I do not know how many oxygen molecules are going to be there. So, let me put it x, but whatever happens I will always have 3.76 x as my number of nitrogen kilo moles and this should give me now let us say some a amount of CO 2 plus b amount of CO. This is because there is going to be incomplete combustion now and what is assumed is that first the entire hydrogen is converted into water and whatever is remaining that only goes to the carbon to form CO or CO 2. So, you will have still 4 H 2 O and you will have 3.76 x nitrogen what is given to you is that the fraction of nitrogen is 87.33 percent and this is as shown by the Orsat apparatus. So, since it is shown by the Orsat apparatus we will say that we do not know how much water is there because it is collected over water. So, if the exhaust gases were paid up of CO 2 CO and N 2 then nitrogen is 3.76 x. So, this is how we will go that nitrogen that 3.76 x will correspond to 87.33. So, now what is asked is that what is the percentage of CO 2 and CO just a minute I think with this problem. So, you have to find out how much CO 2 would be there and how much CO would be there. So, now what you do is that you say that oxygen in the products you have a balance.  So, this totally should add up to x and nitrogen is 3.76 x and nitrogen is 3.76 x and what we have is that A plus B that is if I balance carbon A plus B should be equal to 1 or I will have B I will write as 1 minus A. So, this means for oxygen I will write it as A plus 1 minus A by 2 plus 2. So, this will be equal to 2 A plus 1 minus A plus 4 upon 2 which will be equal to A plus 5 upon 2. So, A is oxygen sorry this is A plus 5 by 2 is equal to x. So, you have written A in terms of x now since B is already in terms of A you can write this in terms of x of x. So, what has happened is that nitrogen is anyway in the form of x in terms of x A is in terms of x B is in terms of x. So, you say now that 3.76 x upon 3.76 x plus A plus B these are the net amount of dry gases that is without considering the water this should be equal to 87.33 percent. So, it is 0.8733 and since I have expressed everything in terms of A and B A and B in terms of x I will get what is x and then I will find out what is A and B because they are known in terms of x and thus I will get how many moles of CO 2 and how many moles of CO exist in the product. So, this is how to analyze dry gases going ahead and you realize that we had said that the mixture was rich and hence I had put CO 2 and CO. Now sometimes we can say the mixture is lean in which case unless it is given we would normally say that there are no CO moles in the product, but there are O 2 moles in the product and you will have to balance things accordingly. In fact, C S 10 is in that case there are two options given that nitrogen is 84.94 percent. So, how much oxygen CO and CO 2 would be there if the mixture was rich or lean. So, based on the two answers you will get different values whether it is rich or lean you will get different values for O 2 CO and CO 2. So, this is what is going to happen based on whether your mixture is rich or lean. So, the last problem I will do is something on adiabatic flame temperature and I will just note down here. Let us see this is problem C S 12 and we are told to determine the constant pressure adiabatic flame temperature. So, which is the regular adiabatic flame temperature for a C H 4 plus air mixture. So, three options are given one is a straightforward option when the mixture is stoichiometric and the initial reactant temperature is 298 Kelvin which means the standard state.  So, there is one O 2 here and one O 2 here. So, this is 2 2.2 times 3.76. So, for 7.52 N 2. So, this is your stoichiometric case. Now, what you need is you must find out what is the H of reactants which is very straightforward you find the H of C H 4 and at 298 Kelvin both of these are 0. So, H reactants is just H of C H 4. So, you go to the tables that have been provided to you and find out that the enthalpy of formation for methane is minus 74 831 kilo joule per kilo mole. Since there is 1 kilo mole I will say this is my H. Now, what happens is that I need to find out what is the temperature of the products and you realize that now nitrogen at a high temperature will have its own enthalpy it will no longer be 0. So, enthalpy here will be a function of temperature and same here. So, what we need to do is use those curve fit coefficients that have been given to you and you will notice that curve fit coefficients have been provided to you for CO CO 2 N 2 etcetera and there are two values 1000 to 5000 and 300 to 1000. So, the procedure normally adopted is that you assume first some value of the adiabatic flame temperature. So, in this case since it is methane roughly if you assume around 2200 Kelvin as your first guess that is not going to be a problem. So, what you say is that I do not know what the adiabatic flame temperature is one straight forward way is just plug in this into your formulae into your curve fit coefficient for H and see if the answer matches. Now, obviously if the answer the right hand side enthalpy is more you will have to slightly reduce the temperature if it is less you will have to slightly increase the temperature and do a trial and error. Slightly more better way of iteration is that we will assume that between 300 and 2200 roughly we will choose an average value for C p. So, we need to calculate we will give a fixed value of C p in which case we will say the C p is to be calculated at let us say 2200 plus 300 by 2 or at 2500 by 2. So, this is roughly 1250 Kelvin. So, what you do is that go to the curve fit coefficients plug in the value of 1250 Kelvin in the polynomial fit and get the value of C p at 1250 and you will get this for CO 2 H 2 O and N 2. So, you will have three values for your three products and you will just write them as such that we have three values here. So, what you do now is that you say that the enthalpy sorry I will write this like the enthalpy of the reactance is known it is equal to enthalpy of the products and I will say enthalpy of the products is you find out the number of moles of each. So, you have one mole of CO 2 moles of H 2 O and 7.52 is it 7.52 moles of N 2. So, you say that for one mole of CO 2 I will have the enthalpy as H times sorry H formation at 0 plus C p average for CO 2 this is the average value that I am getting C p at 1250 T adiabatic minus 298. So, basically you are claiming that the enthalpy of CO 2 we do not know what the adiabatic temperature is, but we have guessed it just to calculate the value of C p, but we are going to leave the value of adiabatic temperature as an unknown and we will say that the enthalpy of CO 2 at the adiabatic temperature is just the enthalpy at 298 plus C p delta T. So, it is just C p delta T plus H f 0. So, T adiabatic is unknown and this is something that we have calculated. So, this is one mole of CO 2 then we say we have two moles of H 2 O and we would put in H f 0 for H 2 O that is the enthalpy of formation at 298 Kelvin for H 2 O and multiply C p C sorry H 2 O average T adiabatic minus 298 and there are 7.52 moles of nitrogen and we will put H heat of formation for nitrogen at standard condition plus C p bar N 2 T adiabatic minus 298. Now, of course, heat of formation for nitrogen is 0 at standard condition. So, these three values have been calculated these two values are given to you in the tables. So, you can see what is the heat of formation for CO 2 H 2 O etcetera. So, everything is unknown and only T adiabatic is the only unknown. So, since the left hand side is known the right hand side has only one unknown you will get an equation only in T adiabatic and you will get an answer for T adiabatic.  If it is too far off then you say my second guess is this new T adiabatic I use this as an average temperature calculate C p again and I will C p bar again for the three products and what I will do is that using this I will get another value for T adiabatic and usually in this process within three iterations you should converge to a value where between two iterations you will have a difference of less than 5 Kelvin and usually around three iterations are sufficient in this case. So, this is rather than doing excessive trial and error you can get a reasonably good value in this case. Now, what I want you to notice is the other two parts to this question in CS 12 where you say that 50 percent excess air has been provided. So, if you provide 50 percent excess air what happens is that 298 Kelvin the H reactance is not going to change this is because the 50 percent excess air is made up of O 2 and N 2 50 percent excess which is only going to give you 0 net enthalpy at 298 Kelvin. So, HR is not going to change, but you will see that H products will have some O 2 in the products and extra N 2 in the products so extra and because of this extra molecules or moles which are not contributing to the reaction, but just are eating up energy you will realize that your T adiabatic must go down and hence you must come with your initial guess itself a reasonably lower value usually if it is around 50 percent excess air my very first guess is roughly around 1800 Kelvin and that is a reasonably good guess for such a case and I can go ahead and get the right value. So, this is not normally done and you will notice that in many places when the temperatures are too high sometimes excess air is put just to reduce the temperature. So, you will realize that whenever there is excess air your adiabatic flame temperature has to go down and in the third case the mixture is initially at 500 Kelvin. So, this means that H reactance is going to change that is because both O 2 and N 2 will have a non-zero enthalpy at 500 Kelvin, but you we have given you the curve fit coefficients so just put in 500 Kelvin and get H of O 2 and N 2 and you will get H reactance you will realize that now you will have to add the enthalpies of both of these. So, H reactance will increase so obviously what you have done on this curve that I had drawn here I had drawn a curve here you have instead of this you have taken a higher temperature may be you are here now this is H versus T you are at instead of 298 Kelvin your mood in the temperature you are here. So, if I go like this I will reach this point adiabatic in an adiabatic case rather than this. So, obviously the adiabatic flame temperature is going to be far higher and usually you should guess reasonably higher value you know may be around 2600 Kelvin within two iterations you should get. So, definitely the adiabatic flame temperature is going to go high if you have higher initial temperature. So, similarly CS 13 and 14 sorry CS 13 is pretty much similar in CS 14 you are supposed to calculate the constant volume adiabatic flame temperature and I had outlined what to do in this case. So, you will require the N R T term. So, you will have to first write out the stoichiometric equation and figure out how many moles of reactants and products are there because those number of moles are needed in your calculation and finally in CS 15 you will realize that the problem is about enriched air. So, the O 2 to N 2 ratio is not 1.3.76, but 1 is to 2. Now, you realize that if there is less of nitrogen the adiabatic flame temperature should go high because the all that the nitrogen does is does not contribute to the heat of reaction, but just absorbs energy. So, the lower amount of nitrogen you have in your air you will have higher and higher adiabatic flame temperature. In fact if you go to an oxy acetylene you realize that there is no nitrogen at all and the flame temperatures can go as close to 3000 Kelvin or something like this. So, if you have less nitrogen and pure oxygen your adiabatic flame temperatures will be higher and you should reach such high temperatures. So, these are some aspects that you must look at when you are considering what the adiabatic flame temperatures are. So, roughly I have just outlined three different kinds of problems. You should be able to do all the problems in the exercises. So, I will just pass the micron to Professor Puranic. So, CF 8 to CF 15 are the problems which you roughly cover what we have discussed today. And what I am going to do here is I will pick probably three of these and simply discuss the outline of how to go about solving the problems. In fact what I am planning to do is in a few days I will upload on module the solutions for all the 15 problems in this compressible flow topic. So, that you can go through those is a detailed solutions. Right now I will try to outline solutions for a few of them. So, let us look at CF 9 which talks about a tank and it is getting discharged through a purely convergent nozzle which is attached to it. So, let me just draw the sketch. You can have something like this. So, this is the tank and the volume of the tank is 2 meter cube. The pressure within the tank will be the stagnation pressure and the initial stagnation pressure is going to be 3 mega Pascal as it is given. This is a problem of venting the tank. So, that as time progresses the pressure within the tank is going to decrease. The final pressure within the tank which I will call the final stagnation pressure is given as 300 kilo Pascal's. And what is given is that the temperature within the tank which is the stagnation temperature remains constant at 300 Kelvin. So, this is a simplification in some sense which has been provided in the problem. The back pressure is 101 kilo Pascal. So, this is the back pressure to which the nozzle is discharging. And what is also given is that the exit area of the nozzle is 12 centimeter square. And we have to find out the time required to reduce P naught from 3 mega Pascal as it is given at time 0 to 300 kilo Pascal. So, this is the question. What is the time required to reduce this pressure from mega Pascal to 300 kilo Pascal? So, the key is really that verify that during this entire venting process the nozzle remains choked. And in order to verify this what you do is calculate the P star value corresponding to both 3 MPa which is at the beginning of the venting process and at 300 kilo Pascal. These are the two stagnation values, the two limiting stagnation values of the process that we are talking about. And for each of these values you can calculate the P star corresponding to as I said 3 MPa and 300 kilo Pascal using the formula that we had derived earlier or equivalently you can use the isentropic tables. And what you will find is that the P star value for P naught equal to 3 MPa as well as the P star value for P naught equal to 300 kilo Pascal both of these will come out greater than the 101 kilo Pascal back pressure that is given. So, what this is supposed to mean is that during this entire venting process as the reservoir pressure or the tank pressure which is our P naught drops from 3 MPa to 300 kilo Pascal we always have P star at the nozzle exit which basically means that the exit Mach number is always 1 at the nozzle exit. So, this is m is equal to 1 always as far as our time limits are concerned because our two limiting pressure values for the stagnation are 3 MPa to 300 kilo Pascal. So, this is what I would like you to first verify that this is indeed the case and this is really the crux of the problem because once you verify this then you have to simply use the expression for mass flow rate which we had outlined in the in terms of P naught P naught and m equal to 1. Remember this because our nozzle is choked and therefore, we are going to use m equal to 1. This is one part of it and also you have to use a mass balance for the tank in the following manner that the rate of change of the mass contained in the tank will be simply equal to the rate at which the mass is leaving with a minus because there is no inflow usually what we write is a mass balance of m dot in minus m dot out, but there is no m dot in coming into the tank it is only the mass flow rate that is leaving the tank and this is something that you can directly bring in from the expression above and the mass contained within the tank can be written as P naught the volume of the tank divided by r which is r for air because it is an air tank times the temperature in the tank and the volume the gas constant and T naught are all constants in this particular problem. So, therefore, what you have is V tank which is given as 2 meter cube divided by r times T naught which is given as 300 Kelvin constant throughout the process times the time rate of change of P naught equal to minus m dot and this m dot will be essentially expressed as some constant times P naught this constant here will involve gamma r and T naught if you just go back to the expression for mass flow rate that we had outlined this morning you will realize that this constant here will involve all those quantities. Therefore, here is an equation which then this is a differential equation first order differential equation which then you can integrate the differential equation in the two limits time equal to 0, time equal to 0 which corresponds to P naught initial of 3 mPa and time equal to P final which is what we want by the way corresponding to P naught final of 300 kPa. So, this problem involves as you can see a combination of a few concepts the first and foremost as I said going back was to verify that the nozzle is operating under choked condition all through our time of interest namely between the pressure dropping from 3 mPa to 300 kPa that is one thing then you write the mass balance for the tank in terms of a rate of change of mass contained is equal to minus the mass flow rate leaving and bring in the expression for the m dot which is going to be expressed in terms of P naught T naught and m equal to 1 remember because the nozzle is choked and all those finally put together will be expressed as some constant times P naught for the mass flow rate and you bring in a differential equation that you can you can integrate to finally obtain your the final time when the stagnation pressure is going to be falling to 300 kPa. So, this is the way you can you can solve CF 9 as I said I will put up the entire detail solution on model in a few days, but this is the procedure you can follow CF 10 is similar in the sense that most of the ideas are exactly similar to what CF 9 is what we discussed the only difference is that P naught is not given as a constant. So, in the previous problem CF 9 the temperature within the tank was given to be a constant, but in CF 10 what is given is that the reservoir pressure and the temperature are related. So, what you have to include in your analysis is bring in that isentropic law which will relate P naught and T naught and then you can go ahead with it. So, that is that is something that I will leave for now, but I will put up the entire solution later, otherwise the concepts are more or less similar. Let me let me discuss CF 12 which is concerning a CD nozzle for air the reservoir pressure where this nozzle is attached to is given as 800 kPa and the reservoir temperature or the stagnation temperature is 313 Kelvin. The design mark number when we talk about design mark number it is always at the exit plane. So, keep that in mind. So, design mark number is given as 2.7 and the throat area is given as 0.08 meter squared and there are various parts to this problem. So, let us go one by one first part is we have to find out the exit area of the nozzle. So, here what you can do is the very fact that we are talking about a design condition. So, far this essentially means that the A throat is A star in the sense that at the throat M is going to be equal to 1. This is possible in design condition. In fact, when the design condition is being discussed M has to be equal to 1 at the throat and therefore, then going to your isentropic tables you can read out the value of A over A star for M equal to 2.7. So, if you go to the isentropic table just look for the entry corresponding to M equal to 2.7 for which there is a value of A over A star listed which is our expression if you remember A over A star as a function of M and gamma which is obviously 1.4 here, but the moment you obtain this A over A star value from the isentropic table for M equal to 2.7, since A star is given as A throat you are in a position to immediately find out what is going to be the exit area in this case. So, that is the first part it is very straight forward you just have to read off the entry corresponding to M equal to 2.7. The second part is what is the choked mass flow rate. So, here you can use directly the expression for M dot that we have obtained and evaluate this at the throat. So, you will have to use A star value which is given as the A throat and use M equal to 1 along with the given P naught and P naught values. So, this is really plugging in the known values in the expression for M dot and that is way you can find out the choked mass flow. So, this is choked mass flow rate. So, that is the second part the third part is the design back pressure. So, here again you can go to the isentropic tables and for M design which is equal to 2.7 read off the value of the ratio P over P naught. This P over P naught will be directly read off from the isentropic table corresponding to M equal to 2.7 and since P naught is already given in the problem you can find out what is going to be the design back pressure to achieve that mark number of 2.7 in the exit plane. So, that is part C part D requires to find out the lowest back pressure for which limiting subsonic condition exists. So, here again use the isentropic table the already known exit area to the throat area ratio and remember that this A E over A star is to be used to find out the other solution not the supersonic solution, but look for the subsonic solution. When you look for the subsonic solution you will figure out a pressure ratio P over P naught that corresponds to this A over A star, but remember again this is for the subsonic solution. So, you have to look within the table where the mark numbers are less than 1 that would be the subsonic solution range and you can read off the value of P over P naught. Since P naught is known you can find out the value of P which is required to be maintained as the back pressure for which the limiting subsonic case would exist. And finally, the last part in this problem are what is the back pressure with a normal shock standing in the exit plane. For this you go again to the isentropic table and let me explain what this situation is really. So, what we have is a CD nozzle like this which is supposed to be axisymmetric and the normal shock is standing right at the exit of the plane. So, this is where the normal shock is standing and this is let us say the inlet plane. So, here we have P naught T naught etcetera. In this case what is happening is that from the inlet plane all the way to the normal shock the flow is essentially governed by isentropic solution. So, in this case what we are going to assume is that since the normal shock is going to be an extremely thin region essentially discontinuities standing at the exit plane. The mark number that is just ahead of the normal shock is the design mark number which is equal to let me call this m 1 because that is what normally we use for the normal shock as the upstream mark number is going to be your design. The mark number just ahead of the normal shock here would be essentially the design mark number which will be 2.7 and the pressure will be essentially equal to the P e design which you can obtain from the isentropic table for m equal to 2.7 and then using the normal shock table for m 1 equal to 2.7 you can determine the pressure ratio across the shock P 2 over P 1 where this P 1 is the design pressure which should be existing in front of the shock and once this ratio is known then you can find out what is the value of P 2 which is what is the required back pressure. So, this is a problem where you require to use both the isentropic flow table in combination with the normal shock table and this is a useful problem the CF 12 because it covers many aspects related to the nozzle operation the CD nozzle operation in particular that we discussed. It requires you to calculate a few different benchmark values for these pressures and I think it is a useful exercise to go through once we are done with this. Let me just discuss one more problem quickly which is the next one CF 13. So, here again it says CD nozzle situation for air it says that the CD nozzle is design is stagnation condition of 1 MPa pressure and T naught of 100 sorry 1400 Kelvin a back pressure of 0.1 MPa and a mass flow rate which must be the choked mass flow rate design mass flow rate of 10 kilograms per second. So, these design condition. So, using this entire set of data what you can immediately find out is the throat area and the exit area. These two quantities you can immediately determine based on the information that is provided as the design condition and then this problem then ask that we want to maintain the same mass flow rate. So, want to maintain m dot at 10 kilograms per second, but the stagnation pressure is changed once to 1.2 MPa and once to 0.8 MPa. So, remember that the 1 MPa value here was the design value, but now the nozzle is operated with a changed P naught. In one case it is increased to 1.2 MPa, in the other case it is decreased to 0.8 MPa, but we want to maintain the same mass flow rate with P naught and the problem is to determine the back pressure required in each case. This case what can be done is if you take the first case where we are doing the change of P naught to 1.2 MPa. It is also informed that only the stagnation pressure is changed the stagnation temperature is not changed. So, that is maintained at 1400 Kelvin. Information and the previously determined values of a throat and a exit etcetera. What you can do is first find out the choked mass flow rate with P naught equal to 1.2 MPa. Now it turns out that this choked mass flow rate with P naught equal to 1.2 MPa will come out to be greater than 10 kilograms per second. What this is supposed to inform us is that if we are to maintain the mass flow rate at 10 kilograms per second, we cannot be operating this nozzle under choked conditions. Therefore, the only conclusion is that if you want to maintain the mass flow rate at 10 kilograms per second with P naught equal to 1.2 MPa, this must mean that the nozzle is operating entirely in subsonic mode. So, this is the most important conclusion I would say that one has to obtain in order to solve this problem because once you obtain this, then what you can do is then use the expression for the mass flow rate and this is equal to 10 kilograms per second. This will require an iterative solution for the M exit. So, you have to assume a certain value of M exit. Remember that this has to be subsonic. So, within a couple of iterations usually you should be able to obtain what the Mach number corresponding to this situation is at the exit. Remember that it has to be subsonic. So, it is some sort of a check for you that you are on the right track and once this M e is known, then you can again use the isentropic table corresponding to this M e. You can find out the P over P naught value and since P naught is 1.2 MPa here, you can find out what should be the required back pressure. So, this is the steps in which you can solve this problem. In the second case, when P naught is equal to 0.8 MPa, you will actually see that the M dot star which is the choked mass flow rate itself is less than 10 kilograms per second which means that no matter what you do to the back pressure you are never going to achieve 10 kilograms per second with a P naught of 0.8 MPa. So, 10 kilograms per second with P naught equal to 0.8 MPa cannot be achieved. The reason is because the maximum that you can obtain turns out to be less than 10 kilograms per second if you are operating with a P naught of 0.8 MPa. So, this is a problem which makes you go through a couple of other concepts and I think it is something that I would like to ask you to verify whatever I have discussed here. Problems number CA 14 and 15 are slightly more I would say advanced in the sense that they require little bit more in terms of the fluid mechanics ideas than what we have discussed so far in these first three problems. Although whatever is required for those we have discussed more or less in the lecture. However, right now I would not want to discuss those. What I will do is I will put up a detailed solution for all problems including these CA 14 and 15 on Moodle in the next couple of days. So, that you can go through these and make sure that you follow exactly what is going on.
