Answer:

a) m = 0.3003 kg/s

b) Vel1 = 6.25 m/s, Vel2 = 7.3725 m/s

c) 12.845 KW

Explanation:

a)

using ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

since, n = no. of moles = m/M

therefore,

PV = (m/M)RT

P1 v1 = RT1/M

where,

P1 = inlet pressure = 1 bar = 100000 Pa

v1 = specific volume at inlet = ?

R = universal gas constant = 8.314 KJ/Kmol.k

T1 = inlet temperature = 290 K

M = Molecular mass of air = 28.9628 Kg/kmol

Therefore,

v1 = (8.314 KJ/Kmol.k)(290 k)/(28.9628 kg/kmol)(100 KPa)

v1 = 0.83246 m³/kg

Now, the mass flow rate can be given as:

Mass Flow Rate = (Volume Flow Rate)/(v1)

Mass Flow Rate = (0.25 m³/s)/(0.83246 m³/kg)

<u>Mass Flow Rate = 0.3003 kg/s</u>

b)

using general gas equation to find the specific volume at the exit first, we get:

P1v1/T1 = P2v2/T2

v2 = P1 v1 T2/T1 P2

where,

P1 = inlet pressure = 1 bar

P2 = exit pressure = 0.95 bar

T1 = inlet temperature = 290 k

T2 = exit temperature = 325 k

v1 = specific volume at inlet = 0.83246 m³/kg

v2 = specific volume at exit = ?

Therefore,

v2 = (1 bar)(0.83246 m³/kg)(325 k)/(290 k)(0.95 bar)

v2 = 0.98203 m³/kg

Now, for velocity, we use formula:

Vel = v/A

where,

A = Area = 0.04 m²

For inlet:

Vel1 = Inlet Volume flow Rate/A = (0.25 m³/s)/(0.04 m²)

<u>Vel1 = 6.25 m/s</u>

For exit:

Vel2 = Exit Volume flow Rate/A = (Mass Flow Rate)(v2)/(0.04 m²)

Vel2 = (0.98203 m³/kg)(0.3003 kg/s)/0.04 m²

<u>Vel2 = 7.3725 m/s</u>

c)

using first law of thermodynamics, with no work done, we can derive the formula given below:

Q = m(h2 - h1) + (m/2)(Vel2² - Vel1²)

where,

Q = rate of heat transfer

m = mass flow rate = 0.3003 kg/s

m(h2 - h1) = change in enthalpy = mCpΔT   , for ideal gas

Vel1 = 6.25 m/s

Vel2 = 7.3725 m/s

Also,

Cp in this case will be function of temperature and given as:

Cp = KR/(K-1)

where,

K = 1.4

R = Gas constant per molecular mass of air = 0.28699 KJ/kg.k

Therefore,

Cp = 1.0045 KJ/kg.k

Now, using the values in the expression of first law of thermodynamics, we get:

Q = (0.3003 kg/s)(1.0045 KJ/kg.k)(35 K) + [(0.3003 kg/s)/2][(7.3725 m/s)² - (6.25 m/s)²]

Q = 10.55 KW + 2.29 KW

<u>Q = 12.845 KW</u>

Answer:

A) Mass flow rate = 0.3004 Kg/s

B) Velocity at Inlet = 6.25 m/s

Velocity at exit = 7.3725 m/s

C) Rate of heat transfer = 12.858 Kw

Explanation:

T1 = 290K ;P1 = 1 bar = 100 KPa

T2= 325K ; P2 = 0.95 bar = 95 KPa

A = 0.04 m² ; k = 1.4

Molar mass of air = 28.97 Kg/Kmol

R = 8.314 J/molK

A) Since we are dealing with a steady state mass flow rate through an open system, we will treat this as an ideal gas. Thus ;

PV = nRT

n=m/M where m =1

Thus; V1 = RT1/MP1 = (8.314 X 290)/(28.97 x 100) = 0.8323 m³/Kg

Now, mass flow rate is given by;

Mass flow rate(m') = Volumetric flow rate(V')/Volume(v)

Thus; Mass flow rate(m') = 0.25/0.8323 = 0.3004 Kg/s

From Gay lussacs law; P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

So to find the volume at the exit which is V2, let's make V2 the subject of the formula;

(P1V1T2)/(P2T1) = V2

So; V2 = (100 x 0.8323 x 325)/(95 x 290) = 0.9818 m³/kg

B) we know that velocity = volumetric flow rate/area

Thus;

At inlet; Velocity (Vi) = 0.25/0.04 = 6.25m/s

At exit; Velocity (Ve) = Volumetric flow rate at exit/ Area.

We don't know the volumetric flow at exit so let's look for it. from earlier, we saw that;

volumetric flow rate/Volume = mass flow rate

And rearranging, volumetric flow rate(V') = mass flow rate(m) x volume(v)

So V' = 0.3004 x 0.9818 = 0.2949 Kg/s

So, Ve = 0.2949/0.04 = 7.3725 m/s

C) The steady state equation when potential energy is neglected is given by the formula;

Q'= m'Cp(T2 - T1) + (m'/2){(Ve)² - (Vi)²}

Where Q' is the rate of heat transfer.

Cp is unknown. The formula to find Cp is given as ;

Cp = KR/(K-1)

Since we are dealing with change in enthalpy here, the gas constant R will be expressed per molecular mass of the air and so R = 0.287 KJ/kg.k

Cp = (1.4 x 0.287)/(1.4 - 1) = 1.0045 Kj/KgK

And so, Q' = (0.3004 x 1.0045)(325 - 290) + (0.3004/2){(7.3725)² - (6.25)²} = 10.5613 + 2.2967 = 12.858 Kw

Given a 12-bit A/D converter operating over a voltage range from ????5 V to 5 V, how much does the input voltage have to change,
Doss [256]

Answer:

2.44 mV

Explanation:

This question has to be one of analog quantization size questions and as such, we use the formula

Q = (V₂ - V₁) / 2^n

Where

n = 12

V₂ = higher voltage, 5 V

V₁ = lower voltage, -5 V

Q = is the change in voltage were looking for

On applying the formula and substitutiting the values we have

Q = (5 - -5) / 2^12

Q = 10 / 4096

Q = 0.00244 V, or we say, 2.44 mV

Four race cars are traveling on a 2.5-mile tri-oval track. The four cars are traveling at constant speeds of 195 mi/h, 190 mi/h,
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) The number of times, the car with the speed of  195 mph will cross the given point is equal to 30 minutes divided by the time taken by car to cross the 2.5 miles.

0 .5*195/2.5 = 39

Likewise, the car with the speed of 190 mph crosses the point 38 times; the car with the speed of 185 mph crosses the point 37 times

and car with the speed of 180 mph crosses it 36 times

here, the time-mean speed, vt is given below,

vt = (39*195 +38*190+37*185+36*180)/(39+38+37+38)

= 186.433 mph

and space mean speed is given by,

= (39+38+37+36)/(39/195+38/190+37/1850+36/180)

1) The number of times, the car with the speed of  195 mph will cross the given point is equal to 30 minutes divided by the time taken by car to cross the 2.5 miles.

0 .5*195/2.5 = 39

Likewise, the car with the speed of 190 mph crosses the point 38 times; the car with the speed of 185 mph crosses the point 37 times

and car with the speed of 180 mph crosses it 36 times

here, the time-mean speed, vt is given below,

vt = (39*195 +38*190+37*185+36*180)/(39+38+37+38)

= 186.433 mph

and space mean speed is given by,

= (39+38+37+36)/(39/195+38/190+37/1850+36/180)

=187.5 mph

2)  There would be only four number of observations when the aerial photo is given, therefore time mean speed, vt in that condition will be calculated as

Vt = 195+190+185+180/4

  = 187.5

Vs= 4/(1/195+1/190+1/185+1/180)

= 188.36 mph

2)  There would be only four number of observations when the aerial photo is given, therefore time mean speed, vt, in that condition will be calculated as

Vt = 195+190+185+180/4

  = 187.5

Vs= 4/(1/195+1/190+1/185+1/180)

= 188.36 mph
