Explanation:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

The engine knock problem can be caused due to the following reason

a) When the octane rating of the fuel used is low.

b) The deposition of the carbon around the cylinder walls takes place.

c) The spark plug used in the vehicle is not correct.

Consider a modification of the air-standard Otto cycle in which the isentropic compression and expansion processes are each repl
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The answers to the question are

(1) Process 1 to 2

W = 295.16 kJ/kg

Q = -73.79 kJ/kg

(2) Process 2 to 3

W = 0

Q = 1135.376 kJ/kg

(3) Process 3 to 4

W = -1049.835 kJ/kg

Q = 262.459 kJ/kg

(4) Process 4 to 3

W=0

Q = -569.09 kJ/kg

(b) The thermal efficiency = 49.9 %

(c) The mean effective pressure is 9.44 bar

Explanation:

(a) Volume compression ratio \frac{v_1}{v_2}  = 10

Initial pressure p₁ = 1 bar

Initial temperature, T₁ = 310 K

cp = 1.005 kJ/kg⋅K

Temperature T₃ = 2200 K from the isentropic chart of the Otto cycle

For a polytropic process we have

\frac{p_1}{p_2}  = (\frac{v_2}{v_1} )^n Therefore p₂ = p₁ ÷ (\frac{v_2}{v_1} )^n = (1 bar) ÷ (\frac{1}{10} )^{1.3} = 19.953 bar

Similarly for a polytropic process we have

\frac{T_1}{T_2}  = (\frac{v_2}{v_1} )^{n-1} or T₂ = T₁ ÷ (\frac{v_2}{v_1} )^{n-1} = \frac{310}{0.1^{0.3}} = 618.531 K

The molar mass of air is 28.9628 g/mol.

Therefore R = \frac{8.3145}{28.9628} = 0.287 kJ/kg⋅K

cp = 1.005 kJ/kg⋅K Therefore cv = cp - R =  1.005- 0.287 = 0.718 kJ/kg⋅K

1). For process 1 to 2 which is polytropic process we have

W = \frac{R(T_2-T_1)}{n-1} = \frac{0.287(618.531-310)}{1.3 - 1}= 295.16 kJ/kg

Q =(\frac{n-\gamma}{\gamma - 1} )W = (\frac{1.3-1.4}{1.4-1} ) 295.16 kJ/kg = -73.79 kJ/kg

W = 295.16 kJ/kg

Q = -73.79 kJ/kg

2). For process 2 to 3 which is reversible constant volume heating we have

W = 0 and Q = cv×(T₃ - T₂) = 0.718× (2200-618.531) = 1135.376 kJ/kg

W = 0

Q = 1135.376 kJ/kg

3). For process 3 to 4 which is polytropic process we have

W = \frac{R(T_4-T_3)}{n-1} = Where T₄ is given by  \frac{T_4}{T_3}  = (\frac{v_3}{v_4} )^{n-1} or T₄ = T₃ ×0.1^{0.3}

= 2200 ×0.1^{0.3}  T₄ = 1102.611 K

W =  \frac{0.287(1102.611-2200)}{1.3 - 1}= -1049.835 kJ/kg

and Q = 262.459 kJ/kg

W = -1049.835 kJ/kg

Q = 262.459 kJ/kg

4). For process 4 to 1 which is reversible constant volume cooling we have

W = 0 and Q = cv×(T₁ - T₄) = 0.718×(310 - 1102.611) = -569.09 kJ/kg

W=0

Q = -569.09 kJ/kg

(b) The thermal efficiency is given by

\eta = 1-\frac{T_4-T_1}{T_3-T_2} =1-\frac{1102.611-310}{2200-618.531} = 0.499 or 49.9 % Efficient

(c) The mean effective pressure is given by

p_{m}  = \frac{p_1r[(r^{n-1}-1)(r_p-1)]}{ (n-1)(r-1)}  where r = compression ratio and r_p = \frac{p_3}{p_2}

However p₃ = \frac{p_2T_3}{T_2} =\frac{(19.953)(2200)}{618.531} =70.97 atm

r_p = \frac{p_3}{p_2} = \frac{70.97}{19.953}  = 3.56

Therefore p_m =\frac{1*10*[(10^{0.3}-1)(3.56-1)]}{0.3*9} = 9.44 bar

A Rankine steam power plant is considered. Saturated water vapor enters a turbine at 8 MPa and exits at condenser at 10 kPa. The
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.31

126.23 kg/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- Fluid: Water

- Turbine: P3 = 8MPa , P4 = 10 KPa , nt = 85%

- Pump: Isentropic

- Net cycle-work output, Wnet = 100 MW

Find:-

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle

- The mass flow rate of steam

Solution:-

- The best way to deal with questions related to power cycles is to determine the process and write down the requisite properties of the fluid at each state.

First process: Isentropic compression by pump

       P1 = P4 = 10 KPa ( condenser and pump inlet is usually equal )

      h1 = h-P1 = 191.81 KJ/kg ( saturated liquid assumption )

       s1 = s-P1 = 0.6492 KJ/kg.K

       v1 = v-P1 = 0.001010 m^3 / kg

       

       P2 = P3 = 8 MPa( Boiler pressure - Turbine inlet )

       s2 = s1 = 0.6492 KJ/kg.K   .... ( compressed liquid )

- To determine the ( h2 ) at state point 2 : Pump exit. We need to determine the wok-done by pump on the water ( Wp ). So from work-done principle we have:

   

                           w_p = v_1*( P_2 - P_1 )\\\\w_p = 0.001010*( 8000 - 10 )\\\\w_p = 8.0699 \frac{KJ}{kg}

- From the following relation we can determine ( h2 ) as follows:

                          h2 = h1 + wp

                          h2 = 191.81 + 8.0699

                          h2 = 199.88 KJ/kg

                           

Second Process: Boiler supplies heat to the fluid and vaporize

- We have already evaluated the inlet fluid properties to the boiler ( pump exit property ).

- To determine the exit property of the fluid when the fluid is vaporized to steam in boiler ( super-heated phase ).

              P3 = 8 MPa

              T3 = ?  ( assume fluid exist in the saturated vapor phase )

              h3 = hg-P3 = 2758.7 KJ/kg

              s3 = sg-P3 = 5.7450 KJ/kg.K

- The amount of heat supplied by the boiler per kg of fluid to the water stream. ( qs ) is determined using the state points 2 and 3 as follows:

                          q_s = h_3 - h_2\\\\q_s = 2758.7 -199.88\\\\q_s = 2558.82 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Third Process: The expansion ( actual case ). Turbine isentropic efficiency ( nt ).

- The saturated vapor steam is expanded by the turbine to the condenser pressure. The turbine inlet pressure conditions are similar to the boiler conditions.

- Under the isentropic conditions the steam exits the turbine at the following conditions:

             P4 = 10 KPa

             s4 = s3 = 5.7450 KJ/kg.K ... ( liquid - vapor mixture phase )

             

- Compute the quality of the mixture at condenser inlet by the following relation:

                           x = \frac{s_4 - s_f}{s_f_g} \\\\x = \frac{5.745- 0.6492}{7.4996} \\\\x = 0.67947

- Determine the isentropic ( h4s ) at this state as follows:

                          h_4_s = h_f + x*h_f_g\\\\h_4_s = 191.81 + 0.67947*2392.1\\\\h_4_s = 1817.170187 \frac{KJ}{kg}        

- Since, we know that the turbine is not 100% isentropic. We will use the working efficiency and determine the actual ( h4 ) at the condenser inlet state:

                         h4 = h_3 - n_t*(h_3 - h_4_s ) \\\\h4 = 2758.7 - 0.85*(2758.7 - 181.170187 ) \\\\h4 = 1958.39965 \frac{KJ}{kg} \\

- We can now compute the work-produced ( wt ) due to the expansion of steam in turbine.

                        w_t = h_3 - h_4\\\\w_t = 2758.7-1958.39965\\\\w_t = 800.30034 \frac{KJ}{kg}

- The net power out-put from the plant is derived from the net work produced by the compression and expansion process in pump and turbine, respectively.

                       W_n_e_t = flow(m) * ( w_t - w_p )\\\\flow ( m ) = \frac{W_n_e_t}{w_t - w_p} \\\\flow ( m ) = \frac{100000}{800.30034-8.0699} \\\\flow ( m ) = 126.23 \frac{kg}{s}

Answer: The mass flow rate of the steam would be 126.23 kg/s

- The thermal efficiency of the cycle ( nth ) is defined as the ratio of net work produced by the cycle ( Wnet ) and the heat supplied by the boiler to the water ( Qs ):

                        n_t_h = \frac{W_n_e_t}{flow(m)*q_s} \\\\n_t_h = \frac{100000}{126.23*2558.82} \\\\n_t_h = 0.31

Answer: The thermal efficiency of the cycle is 0.31

if both the ram air input and drain hole of the pitot system become blocked, the indicated airspeed will
egoroff_w [7]

If both the ram air input and drain hole of the pitot system become blocked, the indicated airspeed will: a) increase during a climb.

<h3>What is a ram air input?</h3>

A ram air input can be defined as an air intake system which is designed and developed to use the dynamic air pressure that is created due to vehicular motion, or ram pressure, in order to increase the static air pressure within the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine of an automobile.

This ultimately implies that, a ram air input allows a greater mass-flow of air through the engine of an automobile, thereby, increasing the engine's power.

In conclusion, indicated airspeed will increase during a climb when both the ram air input and drain hole of the pitot system become blocked.
