like the pistons, pushrods, and the crank
Answer:
The radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft
The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m
Explanation:
Given;
power generation potential (PGP) = 1000 kW
Wind speed = 5 mph = 2.2352 m/s
Density of air = 0.0796 lbm/ft³ = 1.275 kg/m³
Radius of the wind turbine r = ?
Wind energy per unit mass of air, e = E/m = 0.5 v² = (0.5)(2.2352)²
Wind energy per unit mass of air = 2.517 J/kg
PGP = mass flow rate * energy per unit mass
PGP = ρ*A*V*e
r = 210.64 m = 691.1 ft
Thus, the radius of a wind turbine is 691.1 ft
PGP = CVᵃ
For best design of wind turbine Betz limit (c) is taken between (0.35 - 0.45)
Let C = 0.4
PGP = Cvᵃ
take log of both sides
ln(PGP) = a*ln(CV)
a = ln(PGP)/ln(CV)
a = ln(1000)/ln(0.4 *2.2352) = 7.73
The power generation potential (PGP) scales with speed at the rate of 7.73 kW.s/m
Answer:
metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.
Explanation:
The four categories of engineering materials used in manufacturing are metals, composite, ceramics and polymers.
i) Metals: Metals are solids made up of atoms held by matrix of electrons. They are good conductors of heat and electricity, ductile and strong.
ii) Composite: This is a combination of two or more materials. They have high strength to weight ratio, stiff, low conductivity. E.g are wood, concrete.
iii) Ceramics: They are inorganic, non-metallic crystalline compounds with high hardness and strength as well as poor conductors of electricity and heat.
iv) Polymers: They have low weight and are poor conductors of electricity and heat
Answer:
Gross building area
Explanation:
The Gross building area refers to the entire area of a building covering all the floors. The measurement is expressed in square feet. The Gross building area also includes basements, penthouses, and mezzanines. It is calculated by estimating the exterior dimension of the building. Storage rooms, laundries, staircases are also a part of the gross building area.
