Consider a simple ideal Rankine cycle and an ideal regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater. The two cycles are

very much alike, except the feedwater in the regenerative cycle is heated by extracting some steam just before it enters the turbine. Hence, the simple ideal Rankine cycle is more efficient than the ideal regenerative Rankine cycle. How would you compare the efficiencies of of these two cycles?

Answer:

They both have the same efficiency.

Explanation:

The simple ideal Rankine cycle and an ideal regenerative Rankine cycle with one open feedwater heater would both have the same efficiency because the extraction steam would just create a mini cycle that recirculates. The energy given to the feedwater heater is proportional to the added heat in the boiler to the feedwater in the simple cycle to raise its temperature to the same boiler inlet condition.

Therefore in comparison, the efficiency is the same for both.

1. A piston having a diameter of 5.48 inches and a length of 9.50 in slides downward with a velocity, V, through a vertical pipe
const2013 [10]

Answer:

V = 0.00459 ft/s  

Explanation:

Since the Piston is moving downwards with a constant velocity V, from the first Newton’s law we know that all vertical forces, must have zero resultant (their sum over vertical axis must equal to zero). Therefore, force that pulls the piston down, is equalized by force of viscous friction Fd= Fvf = 0.5lb (lb here is the pound-force unit). We will relate F ѵ f  with τ and from that derive the equation for V.

Fѵf = τ  . A

Where τ  = µ. du/dy = µ . V/b  , and A = π . D . l from this Follows:

Fѵf= (V.  A .µ )/b     V= ( Fѵf .b )/(A.µ)    

Placing all the known values in the equation ( remember  to transform inches to feet, by multiplying inches values with the factor 1/12), we obtain :  

ft2

V = ((0.5lb)   .   (0.002/12 ft))/(π   .   (5.48/12 ft)  .  (9.50/12 ft)  .  (0.016 lb.s/(ft^2 )))

V = 0.00459 ft/s

The cross section of a heat exchanger consists of three circular pipes inside a larger pipe. The internal diameter of the three
omeli [17]

Answer:

0.0432 m^3/s

Explanation:

Internal diameter of smaller pipes = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

pipa wall thickness = 3 mm = 0.003 m

internal diameter of larger pipes = 8 cm = 0.8 m

velocity of region between smaller and larger pipe = 10 m/s

Calculate discharge in m^3/s

First we calculate the area of the smaller pipe

A = \pi Dt = \pi ( 0.025 ) ( 0.003 )  = 0.00023571 m^2

next we calculate area of fluid between the smaller pipes and larger pipe

A = [\frac{\pi }{4} D^{2} _{L}  ] - 3(A_{s})

   = [ \frac{\pi }{4} (0.08 )^2 - 3 ( 0.00023571 )]

   = [ 0.00502857 - 0.00070713 ]

   = 0.00432144 m^2

hence the discharge in m^3/s

Q = AV

   = 0.00432144 * 10

   = 0.0432 m^3/s
