Two technicians are discussing the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor. Technician A says that the computer uses the IAT sensor

as a backup to the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor. Technician B says that the powertrain control module (PCM) will subtract the calculated amount of fuel if the air measures hot. Who is correct

Both the technicians are correct.

Explanation

Intake air temperature sensor is used in engines of vehicles to monitor the temperature of air entering the engine.

They are basically made of thermistors whose electrical resistance changes according to temperature.

Depending upon the reading and accuracy of intake air temperature sensor, the power-train control module (PCM) will decide about the air and fuel mixture ratio in the engine.

The hot air in engine requires less fuel to operate the engine parts while cold air requires more fuel to operate the engine.

The ratio of air and fuel mixture should be maintained in the engine and it is done by PCM only after getting the input from IAT. So technician B is saying correct.

Also the IAT works as a backup to support the engine coolant temperature sensor by the computer.

As the IAT checks the temperature of outside air, it will help to change the coolant temperature of the engine based on the environment.

Thus technician A is also correct. So both the technicians are correct.

What is the thermal efficiency of this regeneration cycle in terms of enthalpies and fractions of total flow?
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}

Explanation:

generally regeneration of cycle is used in the case of gas turbine. due to regeneration efficiency of turbine is increased but there is no effect on the on the net work out put of turbine.Actually in regeneration net heta input is decreases that is why total efficiency  increase.

 Now from T-S diagram

    W_{net}=W_{out}-W_{in}

   W_{net}=(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)

  Q_{in}=h_3-h_5

  Due to generation (h_5-h_2) amount of energy has been saved.

  Q_{generation}=Q_{saved}

So efficiency of cycle \eta =\frac{W_{net}}{Q_{in}}

  \eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}

Effectiveness of re-generator

  \varepsilon =\dfrac{(h_5-h_2)}{(h_4-h_2)}

So the efficiency of regenerative cycle

\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}

Determine the constant speed at which the cable at A must be drawn in by the motor in order to hoist the load 6 m in 1.5s
zlopas [31]

Answer:

4m/s

Explanation:

We know that power supplied by the motor should be equal to the rate at which energy is increased of the mass that is to be hoisted

Mathematically

Power_{motor} } =\frac{Energy }{time}\

We also know that Power = force x velocity      ..................(i)

The force supplied by the motor should be equal to the weight (mg) of the block since we lift the against a force equal to weight of load

=> power = mg x Velocity........(ii)

While hoisting the load at at constant speed only the potential energy of the mass increases

Thus Potential energy = Mass x g x H...................(iii)

where

g = accleration due to gravity (9.81m/s2)

H = Height to which the load is hoisted  

Equating equations (ii) and (iii) we get

m x g x v = \frac{mgh}{t}

thus we get v = H/t

Applying values we get

v = 6/1.5 = 4m/s
