R 134a enters a air to fluid heat exchanger at 700 kPa and 50 oC. Air is circulated into the heat exchanger to cool the R134a to

saturated liquid at 700 kPa. Ambient air at 20 oC and 100 kPa is circulated into the heat exchanger to cool the R134a. If The mass flow rate of R134a is 0.099 kg/sec and the circulated air increases in temperature by 5 oC, what is the volumetric flow rate of air through the heat exchanger

Answer:

The volumetric flow rate of air through the heat exchanger is 3.36 m³/s.

Explanation:

Here we have,

-\dot {m_1} c_1dt_1 = \dot {m_2} c_2dt_2

The properties of R 134a at 700 kPa Saturated temperature = 26.7 °C and enthalpy = 88.8 kJ/kg

While at super heated temperature and pressure of 70 kPa and 50 °C the enthalpy is 288.53 kJ/kg

Therefore, we have, the heat lost per kg  = 288.53 kJ/kg - 88.8 kJ/kg = 199.73 kJ/kg

For air we have at 20 ° and 100 kPa, enthalpy = 294 kJ/kg

At 25 °  c_p = 1.012 J·g⁻¹·K⁻¹

    20 ° C  c_p = 1.006 kJ/(kg·K)

Therefore,  c_p air = 1.006 kJ/(kg·K)

Plugging in the values into the above equation, we have

-\dot {m_1} c_1dt_1 = \dot {m_2} c_2dt_2 = 0.099 kg/sec × 199.73 kJ/kg  = \dot {m_2} \times 1.006 \times 5  \textdegree

\dot {m_2} = 19.77/5.03 = 3.93 kg/s

At 100 kPa  and  25° C the density of air is 1.16843 kg/m³

Therefore the volume flow rate = 3.93/1.16843 =3.36 m³/s.

Please define the coefficient of thermal expansion?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The coefficient of thermal expansion tells us how much a material can expand due to heat.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when a material is subjected to heat and changes it's shape, area and volume as a result of that heat. How much that material changes is dependent on it's coefficient of thermal expansion.

Different materials have different coefficients of thermal expansion (i.e. It is a material property and differs from one material to the next). It is important to understand how materials behave when heated, especially for engineering applications when a change in dimension might pose a problem or risk (eg. building large structures).

What is the rated power output in ( kw) of a 8 pole motor designed to an IEC 180L motor frame ?<br>​
ra1l [238]

Answer:

P=11 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Number of poles= 8

I.E.C. 180L motor frame

From data book , for 8 poles motor at 50 Hz

Speed = 730 rpm

Power factor = 0.75

Efficiency at 100 % load= 89.3 %

Efficiency at 50 % load= 89.1 %

Output power = 11 kW

Therefore the rated output power of 8 poles motor will be 11 kW. Thus the answer will be 11 kW.

P=11 kW
