Steam enters a turbine in a Rankine cycle power plant at 200 psia and 500 °F. a) Calculate the isentropic thermal efficiency if

the condenser pressure is 14.7 psia. b) How much will the isentropic thermal efficiency change if the condenser pressure is 1.0 psia.

Answer:

η=0.19=19% for p=14.7psi

η=0.3=30% for p=1psi

Explanation:

enthalpy before the turbine, state: superheated steam

h1(p=200psi,t=500F)=2951.9KJ/kg

s1=6.8kJ/kgK

Entalpy after the turbine

h2(p=14.7psia, s=6.8)=2469KJ/Kg

Entalpy  before the boiler

h3=(p=14.7psia,x=0)=419KJ/Kg

Learn to pronounce

the efficiency for a simple rankine cycle is

η=\frac{h1-h2}{h1-h3}

η=(2951.9KJ/kg-2469KJ/Kg)/(2951.9KJ/kg-419KJ/Kg)

η=0.19=19%

second part

h2(p=1psia, s=6.8)=2110

h3(p=1psia, x=0)=162.1

η=(2951.9KJ/kg-2110KJ/Kg)/(2951.9KJ/kg-162.1KJ/Kg)

η=0.3=30%

Write the following decorators and apply them to a single function (applying multiple decorators to a single function): 1. The f
natita [175]

Answer:

Complete question is:

write the following decorators and apply them to a single function (applying multiple decorators to a single function):

1. The first decorator is called strong and has an inner function called wrapper. The purpose of this decorator is to add the html tags of <strong> and </strong> to the argument of the decorator. The return value of the wrapper should look like: return “<strong>” + func() + “</strong>”

2. The decorator will return the wrapper per usual.

3. The second decorator is called emphasis and has an inner function called wrapper. The purpose of this decorator is to add the html tags of <em> and </em> to the argument of the decorator similar to step 1. The return value of the wrapper should look like: return “<em>” + func() + “</em>.

4. Use the greetings() function in problem 1 as the decorated function that simply prints “Hello”.

5. Apply both decorators (by @ operator to greetings()).

6. Invoke the greetings() function and capture the result.

Code :

def strong_decorator(func):

def func_wrapper(name):

return "<strong>{0}</strong>".format(func(name))

return func_wrapper

def em_decorator(func):

def func_wrapper(name):

return "<em>{0}</em>".format(func(name))

return func_wrapper

@strong_decorator

@em_decorator

def Greetings(name):

return "{0}".format(name)

print(Greetings("Hello"))

A tool chest has 950 N weight that acts through the midpoint of the chest. The chest is supported by feet at A and rollers at B.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

P > 142.5 N  (→)

the motion sliding

Explanation:

Given

W = 959 N

μs = 0.3

If we apply

∑ Fy = 0 (+↑)

Ay + By = W

If  Ay = By

2*By = W

By = W / 2

By = 950 N / 2

By = 475 N (↑)

Then  we can get F (the force of friction) as follows

F = μs*N = μs*By

F = 0.3*475 N

F = 142.5 N (←)

we can apply

P - F  > 0

P  > 142.5 N (→)

the motion sliding

In Lab 7, we worked through a program that displayed the homeless shelter occupancy over time. The same approach can be used for
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The python code to generate this is quite simple to run.

i hope you understand everything written here, you can as well try out other problems to understand better.

First to begin, we import the package;

Code:

import pandas as pd

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

name = input('Enter name of the file: ')

op = input('Enter name of output file: ')

df = pd.read_csv(name)

df['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(df["Date"].apply(str))

plt.plot(df['Date'],df['Absent']/(df['Present']+df['Absent']+df['Released']),label="% Absent")

plt.legend(loc="upper right")

plt.xticks(rotation=20)

plt.savefig(op)

plt.show()

This should generate the data(plot) as seen in the uploaded screenshot.

thanks i hope this helps!!!
