A power company desires to use groundwater from a hot spring to power a heat engine. If the groundwater is at 95 deg C and the a

tmosphere is at 20 deg C, what is the maximum power output for a mass flow of 0.2 kg/s? Assume the water is cooled to atmospheric temperature.

Answer:

W  = 12.8 KW

Explanation:

given data:

mass flow rate = 0.2 kg/s

Engine recieve heat from ground water at 95 degree ( 368 K)  and reject that heat to atmosphere  at 20 degree (293K)

we know that maximum possible efficiency is given as

\eta = 1- \frac{T_L}{T_H}

\eta = 1 - \frac{ 293}{368}

\eta = 0.2038

rate of heat transfer is given as

Q_H = \dot m C_p \Delta T

Q_H = 0.2 * 4.18 8(95 - 20)

Q_H = 62.7 kW

Maximuim power is given as

W = \eta Q_H

W = 0.2038 * 62.7

W  = 12.8 KW

baherus [9]

Answer:

b. The pirating streams are eroding headwardly to intersect more of the other streams’ drainage basins, causing water to be diverted down their steeper gradients.

Explanation:

From the Kaaterskill NY 15 minute map (1906), this shows two classic examples of stream capture.

The Kaaterskill Creek flow down the east relatively steep slopes into the Hudson River Valley. While, the Gooseberry Creek is a low gradient stream flowing down the west direction which in turn drains the higher parts of the Catskills in this area.

However, there is Headward erosion of Kaaterskill Creek which resulted to the capture of part of the headwaters of Gooseberry Creek.

The evidence for this is the presence of "barbed" (enters at obtuse rather than acute angle) tributary which enters Kaaterskill Creek from South Lake which was once a part of the Gooseberry Creek drainage system.

It should be noted again, that there is drainage divide between the Gooseberry and Kaaterskill drainage systems (just to the left of the word Twilight) which is located in the center of the valley.

As it progresses, this divide will then move westward as Kaaterskill captures more and more of the Gooseberry system.
