Air enters a 28-cm diameter pipe steadily at 200 kPaand 208C with a velocity of 5 m/s. Air is heated as it flows, and leaves the

pipe at 180 kPa and 408C. Determine (a) the volume flow rate of air at the inlet, (b) the mass flow rate of air, and(c) the velocity and volume flow rate at the exit.

Answer:

(a) \dot V_1 = 0.308 m³/s

(b) \dot m = 0.732 kg/m³

(c) v₂ = 5.94 m/s.

Explanation:

(a) The volume flow rate is given by the cross sectional area of the pipe × Velocity of flow of air

Diameter of pipe = 28 cm = 0.28 m

The cross sectional area, A, of the pipe = 0.28²/4×π = 0.0616 m²

Volume flow rate = 5 × 0.0616  = 0.308 m³/s

\dot V_1 = 0.308 m³/s

(b) From the general gas equation, we have;

p₁v₁ = RT₁ which gives;

p₁/ρ₁ = RT₁

ρ₁ = p₁/(RT₁)

Where:

ρ₁ = Density of the air

p₁ = 200 kPa

T₁ = 20 C =

R = 0.287 kPa·m³/(kg·K)

ρ₁ = 200/(0.287 ×293.15) = 2.377 kg/m³

The mass flow rate = Volume flow rate × Density

The mass flow rate, \dot m = 2.377×0.308 = 0.732 kg/m³

\dot m = 0.732 kg/m³

(c) The density at exit, ρ₂, is found from the the universal gas equation as follows;

ρ₂ = p₂/(RT₂)

Where:

p₂ = Pressure at exit = 180 kPa

T₂ = Exit temperature = 40°C = 273.15 + 40 = 313.15 K

∴ ρ₂ = 180/(0.287×313.15) = 2.003 kg/m³

\dot m = ρ₂×\dot V_2

\dot V_2 = \dot m/ρ₂ = 0.732/2.003 = 0.366 m³/s

\dot V_2 = v₂ × A

v₂ = \dot V_2/A = 0.366/0.0616 = 5.94 m/s.

v₂ = 5.94 m/s.

How did engineers help to create a ceiling fan
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The electric ceiling fan was invented in 1882 by engineer and inventor, Philip Diehl. He had earlier invented an electric sewing machine and adapted the motor from this invention to create the ceiling fan. He called his invention the “Diehl Electric Fan” and it was such a success that he soon had many other people competing with him.

At a certain location, wind is blowing steadily at 10 m/s. Determine the mechanical energy of air per unit mass and the power ge
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

<em>a) 50 J/kg</em>

<em>b) 721 67 KW</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The velocity of the wind v = 10 m/s

diameter of the blades d = 70 m

efficiency of the turbine η = 30%

density of air ρ = 1.25 kg/m^3

The area of the blade A = \pi d^2/4

A = \frac{3.142 * 70^2}{4} = 3848.95 m^2

The mechanical energy air per unit mass is gives as

e = v^2/2 = \frac{10^2}{2} = <em>50 J/kg</em>

<em></em>

Theoretical Power of the turbine P = ρAve

where

ρ is the density of air

A is the area of the blade

v is the velocity of the wind

e is the energy per unit mass

substituting values, we have

P = 1.25 x 3848.95 x 10 x 50 = 2405593.75 W

Actual power = ηP

where η is the efficiency of the turbine

P is the theoretical power of the turbine

Actual power = 0.3 x 2405593.75 = 721678.1 W

==> <em>721 67 KW</em>

Calculate the density of the FCC nickel lattice with an interstitial hydrogen in the centered position of the unit cell. You may
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

\rho=8907.94\ Kg/m^3

Explanation:

Given that

a=3.524 A

At.Wt. ,M= 58.7 g/mole,

 For FCC

 Z = 4

4r=\sqrt2\ a

The density given as

\rho=\dfrac{ZM}{N_Aa^3}

\rho=\dfrac{4\times 58.7\times 10^{-3} }{ 6.023\times 10^{23}\times (3.524\times 10^{-10})^3}

\rho=8907.94\ Kg/m^3

So the density is \rho=8907.94\ Kg/m^3

B)<br>State the essential difference between a plain carbon steel<br>and an alloy steel​
choli [55]

Answer:

Plain carbon steel has no or trace external elements while alloy steel has high amount of other elements.

Explanation:

Plain carbon steel has no or trace amount of other elements while alloy steel has high amount of other elements in their composition.

The presence of other elements in alloy steel improvise several physical properties of the steel while plain carbon steel has the basic properties.
