b). false

Explanation:

<u>Lean manufacturing</u>

Lean manufacturing, a philosophy developed by Toyota Production System are means to eliminate wastes. They are defined as the techniques or management activities in eliminating wastes and increasing the efficiency inside an organisation.

According to the concept of lean manufacturing, mainly seven types of wastes are identified. They are :

1. Transportation waste

2. Inventory waste

3. Over production

4. Waiting

5. Defects

6. Motion waste

7. Non utilized talent

All these waste affect greatly to the efficiency of an organisation and devalue its services. Lean manufacturing advises to prevent all these waste in order to increase the productivity.

All the management activities and techniques used in lean manufacturing may be different according to the business application but they are all based on the same basic principle of removing wastes and errors and increase efficiency.

The different sectors that are benefiting from lean manufacturing methodology are

Healthcare

Hospitality

Food and Beverage

Government

Manufacturing

Lean manufacturing can be used in different sectors.

A gasoline engine has a piston/cylinder with 0.1 kg air at 4 MPa, 1527◦C after combustion, and this is expanded in a polytropic

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The expansion work is 71.24 kJ and heat transfer is -16.89 kJ

Explanation:

From ideal gas law,

Initial volume (V1) = nRT/P

n is the number of moles of air in the cylinder = mass/MW = 0.1/29 = 0.00345 kgmol

R is gas constant = 8314.34 J/kgmol.K

T is initial temperature = 1527 °C = 1527+273 = 1800 K

P is initial pressure = 4 MPa = 4×10^6 Pa

V1 = 0.00345×8314.34×1800/(4×10^6) = 0.013 m^3

V2 = 10×V1 = 10×0.013 = 0.13 m^3

The process is a polytropic expansion process

polytropic exponent (n) = 1.5

P2 = P1(V1/V2)^n = 4×10^6(0.013/0.13)^1.5 = 1.26×10^5 Pa

Expansion work = (P1V1 - P2V2) ÷ (n - 1) = (4×10^6 × 0.013 - 1.26×10^5 × 0.13) ÷ (1.5 - 1) = 35620 ÷ 0.5 = 71240 J = 71240/1000 = 71.24 kJ

Heat transfer = change in internal energy + expansion work

change in internal energy (∆U) = Cv(T2 - T1)

T2 = PV/nR = 1.26×10^5 × 0.13/0.00345×8314.34 = 571 K

Cv = 20.785 kJ/kgmol.K

∆U = 20.785(571 - 1800) = -25544.765 kJ/kgmol × 0.00345 kgmol = -88.13 kJ

Heat transfer = -88.13 + 71.24 = -16.89 kJ

Answer:

a)120C

b)29kg

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this exercise follow the steps below

1. we will call 1 the initial state, 2 the steam that enters and 3 the final state

2. We find the quality of the initial state, dividing the mass of steam by the total mass.

$q1=\frac{6kg}{10kg} =0.6$

3 Find the internal energy in the three states using thermodynamic tables

note:Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.

u1=IntEnergy(Water;x=0,6(quality);P=200kPa) =1719KJ/kg

u2=IntEnergy(Water;t=350;P=5000kPa) =2808KJ/kg

u3=IntEnergy(Water;x=1;P=200kPa) =2529KJ/kg

4. use the internal energy and pressure to find the temperature in state 3, using thermodynamic tables

T3=Temperature(Water;P=200kPa;u=u3=2529KJ/kg)=120C

5. Use the first law of thermodynamics in the system, it states that the initial energy in a system must be equal to the final

m1u1+m2u2=(m1+m2)u3

where

m1=inital mass=10kg

m2=the mass of the steam that has entered.

solve for m2

(m1)(u1-u3)=(m2)(u3)-(m2)(u2)

$m2=m1\frac{u1-u3}{u3-u2} =10\frac{1719-2529}{2529-2808} =29kg$
