List one advantage and one disadvantage of the use of the commutator?

Mariulka [41]

Answer and Explanation:

Commutator are used in DC machine commutator is mainly used for the reversing the direction of the current .It is connected to the armature of the DC generator or motor

ADVANTAGE OF COMMUTATOR The main advantage of the commutator in DC motor is to keep keep the direction of the toque always in the same direction by changing the current direction

DISADVANTAGE OF COMMUTATOR : The main disadvantage is due to the friction between the commutator and brushes there is a friction loss.

Water at atmospheric pressure boils on the surface of a large horizontal copper tube. The heat flux is 90% of the critical value

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The tube surface temperature immediately after installation is 120.4°C and after prolonged service is 110.8°C

Explanation:

The properties of water at 100°C and 1 atm are:

pL = 957.9 kg/m³

pV = 0.596 kg/m³

ΔHL = 2257 kJ/kg

CpL = 4.217 kJ/kg K

uL = 279x10⁻⁶Ns/m²

KL = 0.68 W/m K

σ = 58.9x10³N/m

When the water boils on the surface its heat flux is:

$q=0.149h_{fg} \rho _{v} (\frac{\sigma (\rho _{L}-\rho _{v})}{\rho _{v}^{2} } )^{1/4} =0.149*2257*0.596*(\frac{58.9x10^{-3}*(957.9-0.596) }{0.596^{2} } )^{1/4} =18703.42W/m^{2}$

For copper-water, the properties are:

Cfg = 0.0128

The heat flux is:

qn = 0.9 * 18703.42 = 16833.078 W/m²

$q_{n} =uK(\frac{g(\rho_{L}-\rho _{v}) }{\sigma })^{1/2} (\frac{c_{pL}*deltaT }{c_{fg}h_{fg}Pr } \\16833.078=279x10^{-6} *2257x10^{3} (\frac{9.8*(957.9-0.596)}{0.596} )^{1/2} *(\frac{4.127x10^{3}*delta-T }{0.0128*2257x10^{3}*1.76 } )^{3} \\delta-T=20.4$

The tube surface temperature immediately after installation is:

Tinst = 100 + 20.4 = 120.4°C

For rough surfaces, Cfg = 0.0068. Using the same equation:

ΔT = 10.8°C

The tube surface temperature after prolonged service is:

Tprolo = 100 + 10.8 = 110.8°C

A company buys a machine for $12,000, which it agrees to pay for in five equal annual payments, beginning one year after the dat

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

$7,778.35

Explanation:

At year 3, the final payment of the remaining balance is equal to the present worth P of the last three payments.

First, calculate the uniform payments A:

A = 12000(A/P, 4%, 5)

= 12000(0.2246) = 2695.2 (from the calculator)

Then take the last three payments as its own cash flow.

To calculate the new P:

P = 2695.2 + 2695.2(P/A, 4%, 2) = 2695.2 + 2695.2(1.886) = 7778.35

Therefore, the final payment is $7,778.35
