In a simple ideal Rankine cycle, water is used as the working fluid. The cycle operates with pressures of 2000 psi in the boiler

and 4 psi in the condenser. What is the minimum temperature required at the turbine inlet, so that the quality of the steam at the turbine outlet is not less than 85%. What would be the thermal efficiency of the cycle?

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressures given are relative

p1 = 2000 psi

P1 = 2014 psi = 13.9 MPa

p2 = 4 psi

P2 = 18.6 psi = 128 kPa

Values are taken from the steam pressure-enthalpy diagram

h2 = 2500 kJ/kg

If the output of the turbine has a quality of 85%:

t2 = 106 C

I consider the expansion in the turbine to adiabatic and reversible,  therefore, isentropic

s1 = s2 = 6.4 kJ/(kg K)

h1 = 3500 kJ/kg

t2 = 550 C

The work in the turbine is of

w = h1 - h2 = 3500 - 2500 = 1000 kJ/kg

The thermal efficiency of the cycle depends on the input heat.

η = w/q1

q1 is  not a given, so it cannot be calculated.

Consider a piston-cylinder device with a piston surface area of 0.1 m^2 initially filled with 0.05 m^3 of saturated water vapor
miv72 [106K]

The friction force f = 10000 N

The heat transfer Q = 1.7936 KJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data:

Surface area of Piston = 1 m^{2}

Volume of saturated water vapor = 100 K Pa

Steam volume = 0.05 m^{3}

Using the table of steam at 100 K pa

Steam density = 0.590 Kg/m^{3}

Specific heat C_{p} = 2.0267 KJ/Kg K

Mass of vapor = S × V

m = 0.590 × 0.05

m = 0.0295 Kg

Solution:

a) The friction force is calculated

Friction force = In the given situation, the force need to stuck the piston.

= pressure inside the cylinder × piston area

= 100 × 10^{3}  × 0.1

f = 10000 N

b)  To calculate heat transfer.

Heat transfer = Heat needs drop temperatures 30°C.

Q=m c_{p} \ DT

Q = 0.0295 × 2.0267 × 10^{3} × 30

Q = 1.7936 KJ

ear shaft.3. Chapter 12 –Loading on Spur Gears: A 26-tooth pinion rotating at a uniform 1800 rpm meshes with a 55-tooth gear in
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The bending stress is 502.22 MPa

Explanation:

The diameter of the pinion is equal to:

d_{p} =mN_{p}

Where

m = module = 5

Np = number of teeth of pinion = 26

d_{p} =5*26=130mm = 0.13 m

The pitch line velocity is equal to:

V_{t} =\frac{d_{p}*2*\pi  *w_{p} }{120}

Where

wp = speed of the pinion = 1800 rpm

V_{t} =\frac{0.13*2*\pi *1800}{120} =12.25m/s

The factor B is equal to:

B=\frac{(12-Q_{v})^{2/3}  }{4} , if Q_{v} =10\\B=\frac{(12-10)^{2/3} }{4} =0.396

The factor A is equal to:

A = 50 + 56*(1 - B) = 50 + 56*(1-0.396) = 83.82

The dynamic factor is:

K_{v} =(\frac{A}{A+\sqrt{200V_{t} } } )^{B} \\K_{v}=(\frac{83.82}{83.82+\sqrt{200*12.25} } )^{0.396} =0.832

The geometry bending factor at 20°, the application factor Ka, load distribution factor Km, the size factor Ks, the rim thickness factor Kb and Ki the idler factor can be obtained from tables

JR = 0.41

Ka = 1

Kb = 1

Ks = 1

Ki = 1.42

Km = 1.7

The diametrical pitch is equal to:

P_{d} =\frac{1}{m} =\frac{1}{5} =0.2mm^{-1}

The bending stress is equal to:

\sigma =\frac{W_{t}P_{d}K_{a}K_{m}K_{s}K_{b}K_{i} }{FJ_{g}K_{v}}  \\\sigma =\frac{22000*0.2*1*1.7*1*1*1.42}{62*0.41*0.832} =502.22MPa

Technician A states that air tools generally produce more noise than electric tools, so wear ear protection when using air tools
dusya [7]

Answer:

Both Technician A and Technician B are correct

Explanation:

Air tools and electric tools are both power tools as they are used to make work easier. Air tools generally use an air compressor that powers the motor of the tool making it possible to use it while electric tools as the name implies are powered by an electric source which in this case is batteries. An example of an air tool is the nail gun which can be used by furniture makers to drive nails and they are often louder than electric tools because of vibrations caused by the compressor making it necessary to use ear protection when using the tool for ear safety.

Technician B  is also correct because it is always advisable to use impact sockets while using impact guns due to the ability of the impact sockets to withstand the force caused by operating impact guns and make work neater when nuts and bolts are being loosened or tightened.

Express the Internal Energy and Entropy as a Function of T and V for a homogeneous fluid. Develop the same relations using the i
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

dU=C_{v} dT+(T(\frac{\beta }{\kappa })  -P)dV

dS=C_{v} \frac{dT}{T} +(\frac{\beta }{\kappa } ) dV

Explanation:

The internal energy is equal to:

dU=C_{v} dT+(T(\frac{\delta P}{\delta T} )_{v} -P)dV

The entropy is equal to:

dS=C_{v} \frac{dT}{T} +(\frac{\delta P}{\delta T} )_{v} dV

If we write the pressure derivative in terms of isothermal compresibility and volume expansivity, we have

\frac{\delta P}{\delta T}=\frac{\beta }{\kappa }

Replacing:

dU=C_{v} dT+(T(\frac{\beta }{\kappa })  -P)dV

dS=C_{v} \frac{dT}{T} +(\frac{\beta }{\kappa } ) dV
