Answer:

A. Confidently and directly communicating what you think and feel, without being aggressive or passive.

Explanation:

Assertive communication is the ability to express both positive and negative ideas in a way that it is a honest and direct message. It doesn't mean to say things to the other person with the intent of causing harm or making them feel better, it's just saying things as they are.

Briefly discuss if it would be better to operate with pumps in parallel or series and how your answer would change as the steepn

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

1) In series, the combined head will move from point 1 to point 2 in theory. However, practically speaking, the combined head and flow rate will move along the system curve to point 3.

2) In parallel, the combined head and volume flow will move along the system curve from point 1 to point 3.

Explanation:

1) Pump in series:

When two or more pumps are connected in series, their resulting pump performance curve will be obtained by adding their respective heads at the same flow rate as shown in the first diagram attached.

In the first diagram, we have 3 curves namely:

- system curve

- single pump curve

- 2 pump in series curve

Also, we have points labeled 1, 2 and 3.

- Point 1 represents the point that the system operates with one pump running.

- Point 2 represents the point where the head of two identical pumps connected in series is twice the head of a single pump flowing at the same rate.

- Point 3 is the point where the system is operating when both pumps are running.

Now, since the flowrate is constant, the combined head will move from point 1 to point 2 in theory. However, practically speaking, the combined head and flow rate will move along the system curve to point 3.

2) Pump in parallel:

When two or more pumps are connected in parallel, their resulting pump performance curve will be obtained by adding their respective flow rates at same head as shown in the second diagram attached.

In the second diagram, we have 3 curves namely:

- system curve

- single pump curve

- 2 pump in series curve

Also, we have points labeled 1, 2 and 3

- Point 1 represents the point that the system operates with one pump running.

- Point 2 represents the point where the flow rate of two identical pumps connected in series is twice the flow rate of a single pump.

- Point 3 is the point where the system is operating when both pumps are running.

In this case, the combined head and volume flow will move along the system curve from point 1 to point 3.

Steam heated at constant pressure in a steam generator enters the first stage of a supercritical reheat cycle at 28 MPa, 5208C.

algol [13]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Steam heated at constant pressure in a steam generator enters the first stage of a supercritical reheat cycle at 28 MPa, 520°C. Steam exiting the first-stage turbine at 6 MPa is reheated at constant pressure to 500°C. Each turbine stage has an isentropic efficiency of 78% while the pump has an isentropic efficiency of 82%. Saturated liquid exits the condenser that operates at constant pressure of 6 kPa.

Determine the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine and the thermal efficiency.

Answer:

- the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine is 0.9329

- the thermal efficiency is 36.05%

Explanation:

get the properties of steam at pressure p1 = 28 MPa and temperature T2 = 520°C .

Specific enthalpy h1= 3192.3 kJ/kg

Specific entropy s1 = 5.9566 kJ/kg.K

Process 1 to 2s is isentropic expansion process in the turbine

S1 = S2s

get the enthalpy at state 2s at pressure p2 = 6 MPa and S2s = 5.9566 kJ/kg.K

h2s = 2822.2 kJ/kg

get the enthalpy at state 2 using isentropic turbine efficiency of the turbine. nT1 = (h1 - h2) / (h1 - h2s)

0.78 = (3192.3 - h2) / (3192.3 - 2822.2)

h2 = 2903.6 kJ/kg

get the enthalpy at state 3 at pressure p2 = p3 = 6 MPa and T3 = 500°C

h3 = 3422.2 kJ/kg

s3 = 6.8803 kJ/kg.K

Process 3 to 4s is isentropic expansion process in the turbine

S3 = S4s

get the enthalpy at state 4s at pressure p4s = p4 = 6 kPa and S4s = 6.8803 kJ/kg.K

h4s = 2118.8 kJ/kg

get the enthalpy at state 4 using isentropic turbine efficiency of the turbine. nT2 = (h3 - h4) / (h3 - h4s)

0.78 = (3422.2 - h4) / ( 3422.2 - 2118.8 )

h4 = 2405.5 kJ/kg

get the properties at pressure, p5 = 6 kPa

h5 = hf

= 151.53 kJ/kg

v5 = Vf

= 0.0010064 m³/kg

get the enthalpy at state 6 using isentropic pump efficiency of the turbine, at

p6 = p1 = 28 MPa

np = v5( p6 - p5) / (h6 - h5)

0.82 = ((0.0010064)( 28000 - 6)) / (h6 - 151.53)

h6 = 185.89 kJ/kg

Now to find the quality of the steam at the exit of the second stage of the turbine

At stat4, p4 = 6kPa

h4f = 151.53 kJ/kg

h4fg = 2415.9 kJ/kg

h4 = h4f + x4h4fg

2405.5 = 151.53 + (x4 (2415.9))

x4 = 0.9329

the quality of the steam exiting the second stage of the turbine is 0.9329

Also to find the efficiency of the power plant, we use the following equation;

n = Wnet / Qin

= (Wt1 + Wt2 - Wp) / (Q61 + Q23)

= [(h1 - h2) + (h3 - h4) - (h6 - h5)] / [(h1 - h6) + (h3 - h2)]

[(3192.3 - 2903.6) + (3422.2 - 2405.5) - (185.89 - 151.53)] / [(3192.3 - 185.89) + (3422.2 - 2903.6)]

= 0.3605

n = 36.05%

therefore the thermal efficiency is 36.05%

It is safe to keep a cylinder next to the actual welding or cutting operation, true or false?

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cylinders shall be kept far enough away from the actual welding or cutting operation so that sparks, hot s lag, or flame will not reach them. When this is impractical, fire resistant shields shall be provided. Cylinders shall be placed where they cannot become part of an electrical circuit.
