Answer:

a. 2.08, b. 1110 kJ/min

Explanation:

The power consumption and the cooling rate of an air conditioner are given. The COP or Coefficient of Performance and the rate of heat rejection are to be determined. <u>Assume that the air conditioner operates steadily.</u>

a. The coefficient of performance of the air conditioner (refrigerator) is determined from its definition, which is

COP(r) = Q(L)/W(net in), where Q(L) is the rate of heat removed and W(net in) is the work done to remove said heat

COP(r) = (750 kJ/min/6 kW) x (1 kW/60kJ/min) = 2.08

The COP of this air conditioner is 2.08.

b. The rate of heat discharged to the outside air is determined from the energy balance.

Q(H) = Q(L) + W(net in)

Q(H) = 750 kJ/min + 6 x 60 kJ/min = 1110 kJ/min

The rate of heat transfer to the outside air is 1110 kJ for every minute.

The Reynolds number is the major parameter that relates fluid flow momentum to friction forces. How is the Reynolds number defin
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Reynolds number determines whether a flow is laminar or turbulent flow.

Explanation:

Reynolds number is defined as ratio of inertia force to the viscous force. it is a dimension less  number. Reynolds number is used to describe the type of flow in a fluid whether it is laminar flow or turbulent flow. Reynolds number is denoted by Re.

When Reynolds number is in the range of 0 to 2000, the flow is considered to be laminar.

When Reynolds number is in the range of 2000 to 4000, the flow is considered to be transition.

And when Reynolds number is more than 4000, the flow is turbulent flow.

                     The boundary layer thickness for a fluid is given by

                                      δ = \frac{5\times x}{\sqrt{Re}}

where δ is boundary layer thickness

           x is distance from the leading edge

           Re is Reynolds number

Thus from the above boundary layer thickness equation, we can see that the boundary layer thickness varies inversely to square root of reynolds number.

What is the magnitude of the maximum stress that exist at the tip of an internal crack having a radius of curvature of 1.9 x 10-
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

2800 [MPa]

Explanation:

In fracture mechanics, whenever a crack has the shape of a hole, and the stress is perpendicular to the orientation of such, we can use a simple formula to calculate the maximum stress at the crack tip

\sigma_{m} = 2 \sigma_{p} (\frac{l_{c}}{r_{c}})^{0.5}

Where \sigma_{m} is the magnitude of he maximum stress at the tip of the crack, \sigma_{p} is the magnitude of the tensile stress, l_{c} is 1/2 the length of the internal crack, and r_{c} is the radius of curvature of the crack.

We have:

r_{c}=1.9*10^{-4} [mm]

l_{c}=3.8*10^{-2} [mm]

\sigma_{c}=140 [MPa]

We replace:

\sigma_{m} = 2*(140 [MPa])*(\frac{\frac{3.8*10^{-2} [mm]}{2}}{1.9*10^{-4} [mm]})^{0.5}

We get:

\sigma_{m} = 2*(140 [MPa])*(\frac{\frac{3.8*10^{-2} [mm]}{2}}{1.9*10^{-4} [mm]})^{0.5}=2800 [MPa]
