A binary geothermal power plant uses geothermal water at 160°C as the heat source. The cycle operates on the simple Rankine cycl

bogdanovich [222]

A binary geothermal power operates on the simple Rankine cycle with isobutane as the working fluid. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine, the net power output, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle are to be determined

Assumptions :

1. Steady operating conditions exist.

2. Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.

Properties: The specific heat of geothermal water ( $c_{geo}$ [) is taken to be 4.18 kJ/kg.ºC.

Analysis (a) We need properties of isobutane, we can obtain the properties from EES.

a. Turbine

P $P_{3} = 3.25mPa = (3.25*1000) kPa\\= 3250kPa\\from the EES TABLE\\h_{3} = 761.54 kJ/kg\\s_{3} = 2.5457 kJ/kg\\P_{4} = 410kPa\\\\s_{4} = s_{3} \\h_{4s} = 470.40kJ/kg\\\\T_{4} = 179.5^{0} C\\\\h_{4} = 689.74 kJ/KG\\\\ The isentropic efficiency, n_{T} = \frac{h_{3}-h_{4} }{h_{3}- h_{4s} }$

= $=\frac{761.54-689.74}{761.54-670.40} \\=\frac{71.8}{91.14} \\=0.788$

b. Pump

$h_{1} = h_{f} @ 410kPa = 273.01kJ/kg\\v_{1} = v_{f} @ 410kPa = 0.001842 m^{3}/kgw_{p,in} = \frac{v_{1}(P_{2}-P_{1}) }{n_{p} } \\\\= \frac{0.01842(3250-410)}{0.9} \\\\ =5.81kJ/kg\\h_{2} =h_{1} + w_{p,in}\\ = 273.01+5.81\\ = 278.82 kJ/kg\\\\w_{T,out} = m^{.} (h_{3} -h_{4} )\\=(305.6)(761.54-689.74)\\=305.6(71.8)\\=21,942kW\\\\$

$W^{.} _ {P,in} = m^{.} (h_{2} -h_{1}) \\=m^{.} w_{p,in \\=305.6(5.81)\\\\=1,777kW\\W^{.} _{net} = W^{.} _{T, out} - W^{.} _{P,in} \\= 21,942-1,777\\=20,166 kW\\\\HEAT EXCHANGER\\\\Q_{in} = m^{.} _{geo} c_{geo} (T_{in-T_{out} } )\\=555.9(4.18)(160-90)\\=162.656kW\\$

c. $The thermal efficiency of the cycle n_{th} =\frac{W^{.} _{net} }{Q^{._{in} } } \\\\= \frac{20,166}{162,656} \\=0.124\\=12.4%$

2) The switch in the circuit below has been closed a long time. At t=0, it is opened.

saul85 [17]

Answer:

il(t) = e^(-100t)

Explanation:

The current from the source when the switch is closed is the current through an equivalent load of 15 + 50║50 = 15+25 = 40 ohms. That is, it is 80/40 = 2 amperes. That current is split evenly between the two parallel 50-ohm resistors, so the initial inductor current is 2/2 = 1 ampere.

The time constant is L/R = 0.20/20 = 0.01 seconds. Then the decaying current is described by ...

il(t) = e^(-t/.01)

il(t) = e^(-100t) . . . amperes

Casein, a dairy product used in making cheese, contains 25% moisture when wet. A dairy sells this product for $40/100 kg. If req

Nataly_w [17]

Based on the percent moisture content of the dried product, the mass of dried casein produced os 852.3 kg.

<h3>What is the mass of casein in wet casein?</h3>

The mass of casein in 1000 Kg of wet casein is 75% 1000 kg = 750 Kg

Mass of water 250 kg

The mass of casein is constant while the moisture content can be changed.

At 12% moisture content;

750 kg = 88%%

100 % = 100 ×750/88 = 852.27 kg

Therefore, the mass of dried casein produced os 852.3 kg.

Tech A says that the brake pedal uses leverage to multiply foot pressure. Tech B says that when braking hard while moving

Nikolay [14]

Tech- A is correct

Explanation:

Leverage is defined as using a tool to gain mechanical influence. The measure of the benefit gained depends on what kind of lever is used and how it is utilized.
Leverage is designed in such a way that it can reproduce the force from your leg many times before any force is transferred to brake fluid.
The brake pedal size and the measure of leverage received depends on the overall design of the brake system.
The second-order lever is used in the brake pedal. The brake pedal applies leverage to populate the force employed to the master cylinder. The effort needed to drive a load depends on the corresponding distance of the load and the work from the fulcrum. The proportion of load and work is known as mechanical advantage.
