Water at 15°C is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 18 L/s using two horizontal cast iron pipes connected in series

Zina [86]

Answer:

0.245 m^3/s

Explanation:

Flow rate through pipe a is 0.4 m3/s Parallel pipes have a diameter D = 30 cm => r = 15 cm = 0.15 m Length of Pipe a = 1000m Length of Pipe b = 2650m Temperature = 15 degrees Va = V / A = (0.4m3/s) / (3.14 (0.15m)^2) = 5.66 m/s h = (f(LV^2)) / D2g (fa(LaVa^2)) / Da2g = (fb(LbVb^2)) / Da2g and Da = Db; fa = fb LaVa^2 = LbVb^2 => La/Lb = Vb^2/Va^2 Vd^2 = Va^2(La/Lb) => Vb = Va(La/Lb)^(1/2) Vb = 5.66 (1000/2650)^(1/2) => 5.66 x 0.6143 = 3.4769 m/s Vb = 3.4769 m/s V = AVb = 3.14(0.15)^2 x 3.4769 m/s = 0.245 m^3/s

A large plate is fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 55 MPa √m (50 ksi √in.). If, during

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

0.024 m = 24.07 mm

Explanation:

1) Notation

$\sigma_c$ = tensile stress = 200 Mpa

$K$ = plane strain fracture toughness= 55 Mpa $\sqrt{m}$

$\lambda$ = length of a surface crack (Variable of interest)

2) Definition and Formulas

The Tensile strength is the ability of a material to withstand a pulling force. It is customarily measured in units (F/A), like the pressure. Is an important concept in engineering, especially in the fields of materials and structural engineering.

By definition we have the following formula for the tensile stress:

$\sigma_c=\frac{K}{Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}}$ (1)

We are interested on the minimum length of a surface that will lead to a fracture, so we need to solve for $\lambda$

Multiplying both sides of equation (1) by $Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}$

$\sigma_c Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda}=K$ (2)

Sequaring both sides of equation (2):

$(\sigma_c Y\sqrt{\pi\lambda})^2=(K)^2$

$\sigma^2_c Y^2 \pi\lambda=K^2$ (3)

Dividing both sides by $\sigma^2_c Y^2 \pi$ we got:

$\lambda=\frac{1}{\pi}[\frac{K}{Y\sigma_c}]^2$ (4)

Replacing the values into equation (4) we got:

$\lambda=\frac{1}{\pi}[\frac{55 Mpa\sqrt{m}}{1.0(200Mpa)}]^2 =0.02407m$

3) Final solution

So the minimum length of a surface crack that will lead to fracture, would be 24.07 mm or more.

A 600 MW power plant has an efficiency of 36 percent with 15

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

401.3 kg/s

Explanation:

The power plant has an efficiency of 36%. This means 64% of the heat form the source (q1) will become waste heat. Of the waste heat, 85% will be taken away by water (qw).

qw = 0.85 * q2

q2 = 0.64 * q1

p = 0.36 * q1

q1 = p /0.36

q2 = 0.64/0.36 * p

qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * p

qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * 600 = 907 MW

In evaporation water becomes vapor absorbing heat without going to the boiling point (similar to how sweating takes heat from the human body)

The latent heat for the vaporization of water is:

SLH = 2.26 MJ/kg

So, to dissipate 907 MW

G = qw * SLH = 907 / 2.26 = 401.3 kg/s
