The variation of the pressure of a fluid with density at constant temperature is known as the coefficient of compressibility.

<h3>What is a compressor?</h3>

A compressor can be defined as a mechanical device that is designed and developed to provide power to refrigerators, air conditioners, and other heating or cooling mechanical devices (engines), especially by increasing the pressure on air or other applicable gases.

In an isothermal process, the coefficient of compressibility is also known as isothermal compressibility or compressibility and it refers to a measure of the variation of the pressure and relative volume of a fluid with density at constant temperature.

In normal operation, a paper mill generates excess steam at 20 bar and 400◦C. It is planned to use this steam as the feed to a t

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The maximum power that can be generated is 127.788 kW

Explanation:

Using the steam table

Enthalpy at 20 bar = 2799 kJ/kg

Enthalpy at 2 bar = 2707 kJ/kg

Change in enthalpy = 2799 - 2707 = 92 kJ/kg

Mass flow rate of steam = 5000 kg/hr = 5000 kJ/hr × 1 hr/3600 s = 1.389 kg/s

Maximum power generated = change in enthalpy × mass flow rate = 92 kJ/kg × 1.389 kg/s = 127.788 kJ/s = 127.788 kW

In the fully developed region of flow in a circular pipe, does the velocity profile change in the flow direction?

taurus [48]

Answer:

<em>No, the velocity profile does not change in the flow direction.</em>

Explanation:

In a fluid flow in a circular pipe, the boundary layer thickness increases in the direction of flow, until it reaches the center of the pipe, and fill the whole pipe. If the density, and other properties of the fluid does not change either by heating or cooling of the pipe, <em>then the velocity profile downstream becomes fully developed, and constant, and does not change in the direction of flow.</em>

The coefficient of static friction for both wedge surfaces is μw=0.4 and that between the 27-kg concrete block and the β=20° inc

balandron [24]

Assuming the wedge has an angle of 5°.The minimum value of the force P that is required to begin moving the block up the incline is: 322.84 N.

<h3>Minimum value of force P</h3>

First step

Using this formula to find the weight of the block

W=mg

W=27×9.81

W=264.87 N

Second step

Angles of friction ∅A and ∅B

∅A=tan^-1(μA)

∅A=tan^-1(0.70)

∅A=34.99°

∅B=tan^-1(μB)

∅B=tan^-1(0.40)

∅B=21.80°

Third step

Equate the sum of forces in m-direction to 0 in order to find the reaction force at B.

∑fm=0

W sin (∅A+20°) + RB cos (∅B+∅A)=0

264.87 sin(34.99°+20°) + RB cos (21.80°+34.99°)=0

216.94+0.5477Rb=0

RB=216.94/0.5477

RB=396.09 N

Fourth step

Equate the sum of forces in x-direction to 0 in order to find force Rc.

∑fx=0

RB cos (∅B) - RC cos (∅B+ 5°)=0

396.09 cos(21.80°) - RC cos (21.80°+5°)=0

RC=396.09 cos(21.80°)/cos(26.80°)

RC=412.02 N

Last step

Equate the sum of forces in y-direction to 0 in order to find force P required to move the block up the incline.

∑fy=0

RB sin (∅B) + RC sin (∅B)-P=0

P=Rb sin (∅B) + RC sin (5°+∅B)

P=396.09 sin(21.80°) +412.02sin (5°+21.80°)

P=322.84 N

Inconclusion the minimum value of the force P that is required to begin moving the block up the incline is: 322.84 N.

A hawser is wrapped two full turns around a bollard. By exerting an 80-lb force on the free end of the hawser, a dockworker can

Brut [27]

Answer:

μ=0.329, 2.671 turns.

Explanation:

(a) ln(T2/T1)=μβ β=angle of contact in radians

take T2 as greater tension value and T1 smaller, otherwise the friction would be opposite.

T2=5000 lb and T1=80 lb

we have two full turns which makes total angle of contact=4π radians

μ=ln(T2/T1)/β=(ln(5000/80))/4π

μ=0.329

(b) using the same relation as above we will now compute the angle of contact.

take greater tension as T2 and smaller as T1.

T2=20000 lb T1=80 lb μ=0.329

β=ln(20000/80)/0.329=16.7825 radians

divide the angle of contact by 2π to obtain number of turns.

16.7825/2π =2.671 turns
