Answer:

the Area required is 12m2

Explanation:

A heat exchanger is a mechanical device used to transfer heat from one fluid to another by heating or cooling one of the fluids with the help of the other. They are of different types which include;

Shell and Tube heat exchangers, that categorically involves large number of small tubes embedded within a cylindrical shell. It may be

1 shell 1 tube pass (1-1 exchanger) which means the heat enters through one end and travels on a straight line to exit the other end.

1 shell multi-tube pass (1-2,1-4,1-6,1-8 etc exchangers) meaning the heat enters through one end, and travels in a directed path to exit a different end.

To calculate the quantity of heat exchanged for both cases, we use the same formula

Q=UA∆Tlm

Where Q= Rate of Quantity of heat exchanged

U= Heat transfer coefficient

A=Area of tube

Tlm= Logarithm mean temperature difference which signifies the average logarithm of the difference in temperature between the hot region and the cold region of both ends of the pipe exchanger.

The major difference is that,

For 1-1 exchanger, Tlm=Tm= [(Thi-Tco)-(Tho-Tci)]/ln[(Thi-Tco)/(Tho-Tci)]

But

For 1-2, 1-4, 1-6 etc exchangers, Tlm=Tm×F

Where F is called the correction factor, and it is the point on the graph (of correction factor (F) plotted against Log mean temperature difference (Tlm) for cross-flow exchangers) where the Y value and Z value intercepts.

The Y and Z values can be calculated using the Formulas below

Y=[(Tco-Tci)/(Thi-Tci)] and Z=[(Thi-Tho)/(Tco-Tci)]

For the question above, to find the Area of tube, we need to calculate the rate of quantity of heat exchanged (Q), then use the value to find the outlet temperature of cold fluid (Tco), then find the Log mean temperature difference which will require F,Y,Z and Tm, then use the results gotten to compute the Area.

Given;

Mass flow rate of hot fluid (oil), Mh=5.04kg/s

Specific heat of hot fluid, Cph=2.09kj/kg.k

Inlet temperature of hot fluid, Thi=366.5K

Mass flow rate of cold fluid (water), Mc=2.02kg/s

Specific heat of cold fluid, Cpc=4.186kj/kg.k

Inlet temperature of cold fluid, Tci=283.2K

Outlet temperature of hot fluid, Tho=344.3k

Outlet temperature of cold fluid = Tco

Overall heat transfer coefficient, U= 340W/m2.k

Area of tube =A

First we have to find the quantity of heat exchanged (Q). We use,

Qh=∆Hh=MhCph(Tho-Thi)

=5.04×2.09 × (344.3-366.5)

=-233.85kj/s

The quantity of heat lost by the hot fluid Qh is equal to the quantity of heat gained by the cold Fluid Qc.

Therefore;

Qh=Qc

Qc=233.85kj/s

To calculate Tco, we use

Qc=∆Hc=McCpc(Tco-Tci)

233.85=2.02×4.186×(Tco-283.2)

233.85=8.45572Tco-2394.66

Tco=(233.85+2394.66)/8.45572=310.86k

Next, we use the formula Q=UA∆Tlm to get our A, but for 1-2 exchanger,

Tlm=Tm×F

So we find F using Y and Z values

Y=(Tco-Tci)/(Thi-Tci)=(310.86-283.2)/(366.5-283.2)=0.3321

Z=(Thi-Tho)/(Tco-Tci)=(366.5-344.3)/(310.86-283.2)=0.8026

At point Y=0.3321 and point Z=0.8026, we have an intercept of F=0.975

Also,

Tm=[(Thi-Tco)-(Tho-Tci)]/Ln[(Thi-Tco)/(Tho-Tci)]

=[(366.5-310.86)-(344.3-283.2)]/ln[(366.5-310.86)/(344.3-283.2)]

=(-5.46)/(-0.0936)=58.33k

∆Tlm=Tm×F

=58.33×0.975

=56.872k

Now to get A, we input all calculated values into our general formula;

Q=233.85Kj= (233.85×1000)j

Q=UA∆Tlm

233.85×1000=340×A×56.872

A=(233.85×1000)/(340×56.872)=12m2

Therefore, the Area required is 12m2.

A(n) is a detailed, structured diagram or drawing.
monitta

Answer:

Schematics

Explanation:

A schematic is a detailed structured diagram or drawing. It employs illustrations to help the viewer understand detailed information on the machine or object being described. Its main aim is not to help the observer know what the object looks like physically. It is rather aimed at helping the viewer know how the machine works. This is achieved by only including key and important details to the drawing.

It is most times used in the blueprint and user guides of machines and gadgets used in the home to help users know how these things work so that they can do little fixings should there be such needs.

Outline the structure of an input-output model (including assumptions about supply and demand). What is an inverse matrix? Why i
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Explanation:

C.1 Input-Output Model

It is a formal model that divides the economy into 2 sectors and traces the flow of inter-industry purchases and sales. This model was developed by Wassily Leontief in 1951. In simpler terms, the inter-industry model is a quantitative economic model that defines how the output of one industry becomes the input of another industrial sector. It is an interdependent economic model where the output of one becomes the input of another. For Eg: The Agriculture sector produces output using the inputs from the manufacturing sector.

The 3 main elements are:

Concentrates on an economy which is in equilibrium

Deals with technical aspects of production

Based on empirical investigations and assumptions

Assumptions

2 sectors - " Inter industry sector" and "final sector"

Output of one industry is the input for another

No 2 goods are produced jointly. i.e each industry produces homogenous goods

Prices, factor suppliers and consumer demands are given

No external economies or diseconomies of production

Constant returns to scale

The combinations of inputs are employed in rigidly fixed proportions.

Structure of IO model

See image 1

Quadrant 1: Flow of products which are both produced and consumed in the process of production

Quadrant 2: Final demand for products of each producing industry.

Quadrant 3: Primary inputs to industries (raw materials)

Quadrant 4: Primary inputs to direct consumption (Eg: electricity)

The model can be used in the analysis of the labor market, forecast economic development of a nation and analyze economic developments of various regions.

Leontief inverse matrix shows the output rises in each sector due to a unit increase in final demand. Inverting the matrix is significant since it is a linear system of equations with unique solutions. Thus, the final demand vector for the required output can be found.

C.2 Linear programming problems

Linear programming problems are optimization problems in which objective function and the constraints are all linear. It is most useful in making the best use of scarce resources during complex decision makings.

Primal LP, Dual LP, and Interpretations

Primal linear programming: They can be viewed as a resource allocation model that seeks to maximize revenue under limited resources. Every linear program has associated with it a related linear program called dual program. The original problem in relation to its dual is termed as a primal problem. The objective function is a linear combination of n variables. There are m constraints that place an upper bound on a linear combination of the n variables The goal is to maximize the value of objective functions that are subject to the constraints. If the primal linear programming has finite optimal value, then the dual has finite optimal value, and the primal and dual have the same optimal value. If the optimal solution to the primal problem makes a constraint into a strict inequality, it implies that the corresponding dual variable must be 0. The revenue-maximizing problem is an example of a primal problem.

Dual Linear Programming: They represent the worth per unit of resource. The objective function is a linear combination of m values that are the limits in the m constraints from the primal problem. There are n dual constraints that place a lower bound on a linear combination of m dual variables. The optimal dual solution implies fair prices for associated resources. Stri=ong duality implies the Company’s maximum revenue from selling furniture = Entrepreneur’s minimum cost of purchasing resources, i.e company makes no profit. Cost minimizing problem is an example of dual problems

Which option should the engineers focus on as they develop the train in the following scenario?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

  Engineers can design a train with a regenerative braking system

Explanation:

Assuming the point of the question is that the engineers want to focus on using energy efficiently when starting and stopping, they would likely want to consider a regenerative braking system. Such a system can store energy during braking so that it can be used during starting, reducing the amount of energy that must be supplied by an outside power source.

Estimate the endurance strength, Se, of a 37.5-mm- diameter rod of AISI 1040 steel having a machined finish and heat-treated to
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

endurance length is 236.64 MPa

Explanation:

data given:

d = 37.5 mm

Sut = 760MPa

endurance limit is

Se = 0.5 Sut

   = 0.5*760 = 380 MPa

surface factor is

Ka = a*Sut^b

where

Sut is ultimate strength

for AISI 1040 STEEL

a = 4.51, b = -0.265

Ka = 4.51*380^{-0.265}

Ka = 0.93

size factor is given as

Kb =1.29 d^{-0.17}

Kb = 0.669

Se = Sut *Ka*Kb

    = 380*0.669*0.93

Se = 236.64 MPa

therefore endurance length is 236.64 MPa
