If the efficiency of the boiler is 91.2 % , the overall efficiency of the turbine, which includes the Carnot efficiency and its

mechanical efficiency, is 46.9 % , and the efficiency of the generator is 98.4 %, what is the efficiency of the total generating unit? (Another 5.0 % needs to be subtracted for other plant losses.)

Answer:

Net efficiency of generating unit = 42.08 - 5 = 37.08 %

Explanation:

We have given that efficiency of the boiler = 91.2 % = 0.912

Carnot efficiency = 46.9 % = 0.469

Efficiency of generator = 98.4% =0.984

We have to find the efficiency of total generating unit

For finding the efficiency of total generating unit we have to multiply all the efficiencies

So efficiency of generating unit = 0.912×0.469×0.984 = 0.4208 = 42.08 %

For plant losses we have to subtract 5%

So net efficiency of generating unit = 42.08 - 5 = 37.08 %

What are the general rules for press fit allowances
Keith_Richards [23]

Explanation:

As a general rule of thumb, the large the diameter of a bearing, bushing or pin, the larger the tolerance range,” Brieschke points out. “The inverse is true for smaller-diameter pieces.”

Mike Brieschke, vice president of sales at Aries Engineering, says a 0.25-inch-diameter metal dowel that is press-fit into a mild steel hole usually has an interference of ±0.0015 inch. Parts in noncritical assemblies tend to have looser tolerances
