Air is compressed in the compressor of a turbojet engine. Air enters the compressor at 270 K and 58 kPa and exits the compressor

at 465 K and 350 kPa. Take the average specific heat at constant pressure (cp,avg) of air as 1.015 kJ/ kg.K and Rair = 0.287 kJ/ kg.K. Find the mass specific entropy change associated with the compression process

Answer:

Recall the Entropy  Balance (Second Law of Thermodynamics) equations for the system below

And for ideal gas, we know that

Change in Entropy of the air kJ/Kg.K, ΔS = S₁ - S ₂ = Cp Ln (T₂/T₁) - R Ln(P₂/P₁)

where R is gas constant =0.287kJ/kg.K and given

Cp=1.015 kJ/ kg.K

T₂ = 465k T₁=270k, P1=58kPa, P2=350kPa

substituting these values into the eqn above, we have

S = (1.015x 0.544) - (0.287x1.798)

S = 0.0363kJ/Kg.K

Hence, the mass specific entropy change associated with the compression process = 0.0363kJ/Kg.K

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

%Reduction in area = 73.41%

%Reduction in elongation = 42.20%

Explanation:

Given

Original diameter = 12.8 mm

Gauge length = 50.80mm

Diameter at the point of fracture = 6.60 mm (0.260 in.)

Fractured gauge length = 72.14 mm.

%Reduction in Area is given as:

((do/2)² - (d1/2)²)/(do/2)²

Calculating percent reduction in area

do = 12.8mm, d1 = 6.6mm

So,

%RA = ((12.8/2)² - 6.6/2)²)/(12.8/2)²

%RA = 0.734130859375

%RA = 73.41%

Calculating percent reduction in elongation

%Reduction in elongation is given as:

((do) - (d1))/(d1)

do = 72.14mm, d1 = 50.80mm

So,

%RA = ((72.24) - (50.80))/(50.80)

%RA = 0.422047244094488

%RA = 42.20%

What is the difference between a refrigeration cycle and a heat pump cycle?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

In refrigeration cycle heat transfer from inside refrigeration

In heat pump cycle heat transfer from environment

Explanation:

heat cycle is mechanical process use for cool the temperature but

In refrigeration heat transfer from inside of refrigeration that decrease temperature of refrigerator and in heat pump it decrease temperature negligible as compare to refrigerator

thermal energy is being added to steam at 475.8 kPa and 75% quality. determine the amount of thermal energy to be added to creat
eduard

Answer:

q_{in} = 528.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

Explanation:

Let assume that heating process occurs at constant pressure, the phenomenon is modelled by the use of the First Law of Thermodynamics:

q_{in} = h_{g} - h_{mix}

The specific enthalpies are:

Liquid-Vapor Mixture:

h_{mix} = 2217.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

Saturated Vapor:

h_{g} = 2745.8\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The thermal energy per unit mass required to heat the steam is:

q_{in} = 2745.8\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 2217.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

q_{in} = 528.6\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

A ramjet operates by taking in air at the inlet, providing fuel for combustion, and exhausting the hot air through the exit. Th
UNO [17]

Answer:

15300 N

Explanation:

\rho_i = Density of air at inlet

\dfrac{m}{t} = Mass flow rate = 60 kg/s

v_i = Inlet velocity = 225 m/s

\rho_o = Density of gas at outlet = 0.25\ \text{kg/m}^3

A_i = Inlet area

A_o = Outlet area = 0.5\ \text{m}^2

Since mass flow rate is the same in the inlet and outlet we have

\rho_iv_iA_i=\rho_ov_oA_o\\\Rightarrow v_o=\dfrac{\dfrac{m}{t}}{\rho_oA_o}\\\Rightarrow v_o=\dfrac{60}{0.25\times 0.5}\\\Rightarrow v_o=480\ \text{m/s}

Thrust is given by

F=\dfrac{m}{t}(v_o-v_i)\\\Rightarrow F=60\times (480-225)\\\Rightarrow F=15300\ \text{N}

The thrust generated is 15300 N.
