Find the phasor form of:
mixer [17]

Answer:

I=24.598\angle 50.377

Explanation:

A tension or current expressed in cosine form and with a positive sign can be converted directly into a phasor. This is done by indicating the tension and the offset angle:

Acos(10\omega t +\phi)=A\angle \phi

So:

i(t)=10cos(10t+63)+15cos(10t-42)=10\angle 63 + 15\angle42=I

You can sum the phasors simply using a calculator, however, let's do it manually:

Let's find the rectangular form of each phasor using the next formulas:

A=\sqrt{a^2+b^2} \\\phi=arctan(\frac{b}{a})

For 10\angle 63

63=arctan(\frac{b}{a} )\\\\tan(63)=\frac{b}{a} \\\\b=a*tan(63)

10=\sqrt{a^2+(a*tan(63))^2} \\\\10^2=a^2+a^2*(tan(63))^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3}for\hspace{3}a\\\\a=\sqrt{\frac{100}{1+tan(63)^2} } =4.539904997\\\\and\hspace{3}b\\b=\sqrt{100-a^2} =8.910065242

So:

Z_1=a+bj=4.539904997+8.910065242j

For 15\angle 42

42=arctan(\frac{b_2}{a_2} )\\\\tan(42)=\frac{b_2}{a_2} \\\\b_2=a_2*tan(42)

15=\sqrt{a_2^2+(a_2*tan(42))^2} \\\\15^2=a_2^2+a_2^2*(tan(42))^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3}for\hspace{3}a_2\\\\a_2=\sqrt{\frac{225}{1+tan(42)^2} } =11.14717238\\\\and\hspace{3}b_2\\\\b_2=\sqrt{225-a^2} =10.0369591

So:

Z_2=a_2+b_2j=11.14717238+10.0369591j

Hence:

Z_T=Z_1+Z_2=(4.539904997+11.14717238)+(8.910065242+10.0369591)j\\Z_T=15.68707738+18.94702434j

Finally:

I=\sqrt{15.68707738^2+18.94702434^2} \angle arctan (\frac{18.94702434}{15.68707738} )=24.598\angle 50.377

A power plant operates on a regenerative vapor power cycle with one open feedwater heater. Steam enters the first turbine stage
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

a. 46.15%

b. 261.73 kg/s

c. 54.79 kW/K

Explanation:

a. State 1

The parameters given are;

T₁ = 560°C

P₁ = 12 MPa = 120 bar

Therefore;

h₁ = 3507.41 kJ/kg,  s₁ = 6.6864 kJ/(kg·K)

State 2

p₂ = 1 MPa = 10 bar

s₂ = s₁ = 6.6864 kJ/(kg·K)

h₂ = (6.6864 - 6.6426)÷(6.6955 - 6.6426)×(2828.27 - 2803.52) + 2803.52

= (0.0438 ÷ 0.0529) × 24.75 = 2824.01 kJ/kg

State 3

p₃ = 6 kPa = 0.06 bar

s₃ = s₁ = 6.6864 kJ/(kg·K)

sg = 8.3291 kJ/(kg·K)

sf = 0.52087 kJ/(kg·K)

x = s₃/sfg = (6.6864- 0.52087)/(8.3291  - 0.52087) = 0.7896

(h₃ - 151.494)/2415.17 = 0.7896

∴ h₃ = 2058.56 kJ/kg

State 4

Saturated liquid state

p₄ = 0.06 bar= 6000 Pa, h₄ = 151.494 kJ/kg, s₄ = 0.52087 kJ/(kg·K)

State 5

Open feed-water heater

p₅ = p₂ =  1 MPa = 10 bar = 1000000 Pa

s₄ = s₅ = 0.52087 kJ/(kg·K)

h₅ = h₄ + work done by the pump on the saturated liquid

∴ h₅ = h₄ + v₄ × (p₅ - p₄)

h₅ = 151.494 + 0.00100645 × (1000000 - 6000)/1000 = 152.4944113 kJ/kg

Step 6

Saturated liquid state

p₆ = 1 MPa = 10 bar

h₆ = 762.683 kJ/kg

s₆ = 2.1384 kJ/(kg·K)

v₆ = 0.00112723 m³/kg

Step 7

p₇ = p₁ = 12 MPa = 120 bar

s₇ = s₆ = 2.1384 kJ/(kg·K)

h₇ = h₆ + v₆ × (p₇ - p₆)

h₇ = 762.683  + 0.00112723 * (12 - 1) * 1000 = 775.08253 kJ/kg

The fraction of flow extracted at the second stage, y, is given as follows

y = \dfrac{762.683 - 152.4944113 }{2824.01 - 152.4944113 } = 0.2284

The turbine control volume is given as follows;

\dfrac{\dot{W_t}}{\dot{m_{1}}} = \left (h_{1} - h_{2}  \right ) + \left (1 - y  \right )\left (h_{2} - h_{3}  \right )

= (3507.41  - 2824.01) + (1 - 0.22840)*(2824.01 - 2058.56) = 1274.02122 kJ/kg

For the pumps, we have;

\dfrac{\dot{W_p}}{\dot{m_{1}}} = \left (h_{7} - h_{6}  \right ) + \left (1 - y  \right )\left (h_{5} - h_{4}  \right )

= (775.08253 - 762.683) + (1 - 0.22840)*(152.4944113 -  151.494)

= 13.17 kJ/kg

For the working fluid that flows through the steam generator, we have;

\dfrac{\dot{Q_{in}}}{\dot{m_{1}}} = \left (h_{1} - h_{7}  \right )

= 3507.41 - 775.08253 = 2732.32747 kJ/kg

The thermal efficiency, η, is given as follows;

\eta = \dfrac{\dfrac{\dot{W_t}}{\dot{m_{1}}} -\dfrac{\dot{W_p}}{\dot{m_{1}}}}{\dfrac{\dot{Q_{in}}}{\dot{m_{1}}}}

η = (1274.02122 - 13.17)/2732.32747 = 0.4615 which is 46.15%

(762.683 - 152.4944113)/(2824.01 - 152.4944113)

b. The mass flow rate, \dot{m_{1}}, into the first turbine stage is given as follows;

\dot{m_{1}} = \dfrac{\dot{W_{cycle}}}{\dfrac{\dot{W_t}}{\dot{m_{1}}} -\dfrac{\dot{W_p}}{\dot{m_{1}}}}

\dot{m_{1}} = 330 *1000/(1274.02122 - 13.17) = 261.73 kg/s

c. From the entropy rate balance of the steady state form, we have;

\dot{\sigma }_{cv} = \sum_{e}^{}\dot{m}_{e}s_{e} - \sum_{i}^{}\dot{m}_{i}s_{i} = \dot{m}_{6}s_{6} - \dot{m}_{2}s_{2} - \dot{m}_{5}s_{5}

\dot{\sigma }_{cv} = \dot{m}_{6} \left [s_{6} - ys_{2} - (1 - y)s_{5}  \right ]

= 261.73 * (2.1384 - 0.2284*6.6864 - (1 - 0.2284)*0.52087 = 54.79 kW/K

Answer:

The program requires that you have the specified input files and it reads from each file at a time and processes salary in digits, states the city, state and bonus with respective first and last name as requested in the question. Note that you must have access to the mentioned output files for the program to work properly. Below is the java version of the program.

double salary = 0, bonus = 0;

int incorrectRecords = 0;

int dRecords = 0;

int fRecords = 0;

while(sc.hasNextLine())

{

firstname = sc.next();

lastname = sc.next();

strSalary = sc.next();

status = sc.next();

cityState = sc.next();

if(!status.equals("D") && !status.equals("F"))

{

System.out.println("Char at position " + (i+1+1) + " in salary is not a digit");

incorrectRecords++;

continue;

}

}

else

{

System.out.println("Period is in the wrong position. Expected at " + (strSalary.length()-3) + " but found at " + (i+1));

continue;

}

}

city = cityState.split(",")[0];

state = cityState.split(",")[1];

salary = Double.parseDouble(strSalary);

if(status.equals("D"))

{

bonus = salary * 0.125;

dRecords++;

bonus = salary * 0.18;

fRecords++;

prf.write(firstname + " " + lastname + " " + status + " " + salary + " " + bonus + " " + city + " " + state);

}

}

}

System.out.println("No of D records : " + dRecords);
