hen by vibration it is reduced 10% of the original volume. Assume the solid density of sand grains is 2.65 Mg/m3 . Compute the void ratio, porosity, dry density, and total density corresponding to each of the following cases:__________.(a) Loose sand. (b) Under static load. (c) Vibrated and loaded sand.

Answer:

a.

b.

c.

Explanation:

a. void ratio is provided by the formula: $e = \frac{V_{p} }{V_{s} }$

where , $V_{p}$ = volume of voids

$V_{s}$ = volume of solid grains

for loose sand, the void space = $\frac{480}{480}$

= 1

b. void ratio after static load = 0.1/(480)/ (480)

= 0.1

c. void ratio after vibration = [480- ( 0.1 * 480) ]/ 480

= 0.9

Inessa [10]

Answer:

(a). The value of temperature at the end of heat addition process $T_{3}$ = 2042.56 K

(b). The value of pressure at the end of heat addition process $P_{3}$ = 1555.46 k pa

(c). The thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle $E_{otto}$ = 0.4478

(d). The value of mean effective pressure of the cycle $P_{m}$ = 1506.41 $\frac{k pa}{kg}$

Explanation:

Compression ratio $r_{p}$ = 8

Initial pressure $P_{1}$ = 95 k pa

Initial temperature $T_{1}$ = 278 °c = 551 K

Final pressure $P_{2}$ = 8 × $P_{1}$ = 8 × 95 = 760 k pa

Final temperature $T_{2}$ = $T_{1}$ × $r_{p} ^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma} }$

Final temperature $T_{2}$ = 551 × $8 ^{\frac{1.4 - 1}{1.4} }$

Final temperature $T_{2}$ = 998 K

Heat transferred at constant volume Q = 750 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

(a). We know that Heat transferred at constant volume $Q_{S}$ = $m C_{v} ( T_{3} - T_{2} )$

⇒ 1 × 0.718 × ( $T_{3}$ - 998 ) = 750

⇒ $T_{3}$ = 2042.56 K

This is the value of temperature at the end of heat addition process.

Since heat addition is constant volume process. so for that process pressure is directly proportional to the temperature.

⇒ P ∝ T

⇒ $\frac{P_{3} }{P_{2} }$ = $\frac{T_{3} }{T_{2} }$

⇒ $P_{3}$ = $\frac{2042.56}{998}$ × 760

⇒ $P_{3}$ = 1555.46 k pa

This is the value of pressure at the end of heat addition process.

(b). Heat rejected from the cycle $Q_{R} = m C_{v} ( T_{4} - T_{1} )$

For the compression and expansion process,

⇒ $\frac{T_{3} }{T_{2} } = \frac{T_{4} }{T_{1} }$

⇒ $\frac{2042.56}{998} = \frac{T_{4} }{551}$

⇒ $T_{4}$ = 1127.7 K

Heat rejected $Q_{R}$ = 1 × 0.718 × ( 1127.7 - 551)

⇒ $Q_{R}$ = 414.07 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

Net heat interaction from the cycle $Q_{net}$ = $Q_{S}$ - $Q_{R}$

Put the values of $Q_{S}$ & $Q_{R}$ we get,

⇒ $Q_{net}$ = 750 - 414.07

⇒ $Q_{net}$ = 335.93 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

We know that for a cyclic process net heat interaction is equal to net work transfer.

⇒ $Q_{net}$ = $W_{net}$

⇒ $W_{net}$ = 335.93 $\frac{KJ}{kg}$

This is the net work output from the cycle.

(c). Thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle is given by

$E_{otto} = 1- \frac{T_{1} }{T_{2} }$

Put the values of $T_{1}$ & $T_{2}$ in the above formula we get,

$E_{otto} = 1- \frac{551 }{998 }$

⇒ $E_{otto}$ = 0.4478

This is the thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle.

(d). Mean effective pressure $P_{m}$ :-

We know that mean effective pressure of the Otto cycle is given by

$P_{m}$ = $\frac{W_{net} }{V_{s} }$ ---------- (1)

where $V_{s}$ is the swept volume.

$V_{s}$ = $V_{1} - V_{2}$ ---------- ( 2 )

From ideal gas equation $P_{1}$ $V_{1}$ = m × R × $T_{1}$

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 95 × $V_{1}$ = 1 × 0.287 × 551

⇒ $V_{1}$ = 0.6 $m^{3}$

From the same ideal gas equation

$P_{2}$ $V_{2}$ = m × R × $T_{2}$

⇒ 760 × $V_{2}$ = 1 × 0.287 × 998

⇒ $V_{2}$ = 0.377 $m^{3}$

Thus swept volume $V_{s}$ = 0.6 - 0.377

⇒ $V_{s}$ = 0.223 $m^{3}$

Thus from equation 1 the mean effective pressure

⇒ $P_{m}$ = $\frac{335.93}{0.223}$

⇒ $P_{m}$ = 1506.41 $\frac{k pa}{kg}$

This is the value of mean effective pressure of the cycle.

Answer:

P=3.31 hp (2.47 kW).

Explanation:

Solution

Curve A in Fig1. applies under the conditions of this problem.

S1 = Da / Dt ; S2 = E / Dt ; S3 = L / Da ; S4 = W / Da ; S5 = J / Dt and S6 = H / Dt

The above notations are with reference to the diagram below against the dimensions noted. The notations are valid for other examples following also.

Fig. 32.2 Dimension of turbine agitator

The Reynolds number is calculated. The quantities for substitution are, in consistent units,

D a =2⋅ft

n= 90/ 60 =1.5 r/s

μ = 12 x 6.72 x 10-4 = 8.06 x 10-3 lb/ft-s

ρ = 93.5 lb/ft3 g= 32.17 ft/s2

NRc = (( D a) 2 n ρ)/ μ = 2 2 ×1.5×93.5 8.06× 10 −3 =69,600

From curve A (Fig.1) , for NRc = 69,600 , N P = 5.8, and from Eq. P= N P × (n) 3 × ( D a )5 × ρ g c

The power P= 5.8×93.5× (1.5) 3 × (2) 5 / 32.17 =1821⋅ft−lb f/s requirement is 1821/550 = 3.31 hp (2.47 kW).

Natali [406]

Answer:

Sarah is asking each department head how long they can be without their primary system. Sarah is trying to determine the Recovery Time Objective (RTO) as this is the duration of time within which the primary system must be restored after the disruption.

Recovery Point Objective is basically to determine the age of restoration or recovery point.

Business recovery and technical recovery requirements are to assess the requirements to recover by Business or technically.

Hence, Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is the correct answer.
