Ignoring any losses, estimate how much energy (in units of Btu) is required to raise the temperature of water in a 90-gallon hot

-water tank from 60°F to 110°F. The specific heat of water is approximated as a constant, whose value is 0.999 Btu/·lbmR at the average temperature of (60 + 110)/2 = 85ºF. In fact, c remains constant at 0.999 Btu/lbm·R (to three digits) from 60ºF to 110ºF. For this same temperature range, the density varies from 62.36 lbm/ft3 at 60ºF to 61.86 lbm/ft3 at 110ºF. We approximate the density as remaining constant, whose value is 62.17 lbm/ft3 at the average temperature of 85ºF.

Answer:

Q=36444.11 Btu

Explanation:

Given that

Initial temperature = 60° F

Final temperature = 110° F

Specific heat of water = 0.999 Btu/lbm.R

Volume of water = 90 gallon

Mass = Volume x density

1\ gallon = 0.13ft^3

Mass ,m= 90 x 0.13 x 62.36 lbm

m=729.62 lbm

We know that sensible heat given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

Now by putting the values

Q= 729.62 x 0.999 x (110-60) Btu

Q=36444.11 Btu

A cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston contains 2 kg of R-134a at 3.5 bar and 100 C. The cylinder is now cooled so that th
inna [77]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The heat transferred in the process is -274.645 kJ

Explanation:

To solve the question, we list out the variables thus

R-134a = Tetrafluoroethane

Intitial Temperaturte t₁ = 100 °C

Initial pressure = 3.5 bar = 350 kPa

For closed system we have m₁ = m₂ = m

ΔU = m×(u₂ - u₁) = ₁Q₂ -₁W₂

For constant pressure process we have

Work done = W = \int\limits^a_b P \, dV  = P×ΔV = P × (V₂ - V₁) = P×m×(v₂ - v₁)

From the tables we have

State 1 we have h₁ = (490.48 +489.52)/2 = 490 kJ/kg

State 2 gives h₂ = 206.75 + 0.75 × 194.57= 352.6775 kJ/kg

Therefore Q₁₂ = m×(u₂ - u₁) + W₁₂ = m × (u₂ - u₁) + P×m×(v₂ - v₁)

= m×(h₂ - h₁) = 2.0 kg × (352.6775 kJ/kg - 490 kJ/kg) =-274.645 kJ

Why would an aerospace engineer limit the maximum angle of deflection of the control surfaces?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

You can create high drag which allows a steeper angle without increasing your air speed on landing. you can reduce the length of landing role. Flaps are also used to increase the drag they are retracted when they are not needed. it is adviseable to down he flaps during the time of take off.
