What is the function maintenance? List some important steps for vibration monitoring based maintenance.

1 answer:

4 0

The maintenance is in charge of controlling that all the machines of a company are constantly running in order to avoid damages that cause loss of money when the machines fail.

The maintenance based on vibration monitoring allows to predict failures in some rotating machines such as:

1. worn bearings

2.alignment

3.balance

4. affected gears

5. bent shafts

6. rocks

7.gags

8. eccentricity

9. failures of electrical origin

It is desired to produce and aligned carbon fiber-epoxy matrix composite having a longitudinal tensile strength of 630 MPa. Calc

ratelena [41]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

Diameter (D) = 0.03 mm = 0.00003 m, length (L) = 2.4 mm = 0.0024 m, longitudinal tensile strength $(\sigma_{cd})=630\ MPa = 630*10^6\ Pa$ , Fracture strength

$(\sigma_f)=5100\ MPa=5100*10^6\ Pa,fiber-matrix\ stres(\sigma_m)=17.5\ MPa=17.5*10^6\ Pa,matrix\ strength=\tau_c=17\ MPa=17 *10^6\ Pa$

a) The critical length ( $L_c$ ) is given by:

$L_c=\sigma_f*(\frac{D}{2*\tau_c} )=5100*10^6*\frac{0.00003}{2*17*10^6}=0.0045\ m=4.5\ mm$

The critical length (4.5 mm) is greater than the given length, hence th composite can be produced.

b) The volume fraction (Vf) is gotten from the formula:

$\sigma_{cd}=\frac{L*\tau_c}{D}*V_f+\sigma_m(1-V_f)\\\\V_f=\frac{\sigma_{cd}-\sigma_{m}}{\frac{L*\tau_c}{D}-\sigma_{m}} \\\\Substituting:\\\\V_f=\frac{630*10^6-17.5*10^6}{\frac{0.0024*17*10^6}{0.00003} -17.5*10^6} \\\\V_f=0.456$

A 20-cm-long rod with a diameter of 0.250 cm is loaded with a 5500 N weight. If the diameter decreases to 0.210 cm, determine th

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

1561.84 MPa

Explanation:

L=20 cm

d1=0.21 cm

d2=0.25 cm

F=5500 N

a) σ= F/A1= 5000/(π/4×(0.0025)^2)= 1018.5916 MPa

lateral strain= Δd/d1= (0.0021-0.0025)/0.0025= -0.16

longitudinal strain (ε_l)= -lateral strain/ν = -(-0.16)/0.3

(assuming a poisson's ration of 0.3)

ε_l =0.16/0.3 = 0.5333

b) σ_true= σ(1+ ε_l)= 1018.5916( 1+0.5333)

σ_true = 1561.84 MPa

ε_true = ln( 1+ε_l)= ln(1+0.5333)

ε_true= 0.4274222

The engineering stress on the rod when it is loaded with a 5500 N weight is 1561.84 MPa.

Refrigerant 134a enters the evaporator of a refrigeration system operating at steady state at -16oC and a quality of 20% at a ve

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

mass flow rate = 0.0534 kg/sec

velocity at exit = 29.34 m/sec

Explanation:

From the information given:

Inlet:

Temperature $T_1 = -16^0\ C$

Quality $x_1 = 0.2$

Outlet:

Temperature $T_2 = -16^0 C$

Quality $x_2 = 1$

The following data were obtained at saturation properties of R134a at the temperature of -16° C

$v_f= 0.7428 \times 10^{-3} \ m^3/kg \\ \\ v_g = 0.1247 \ m^3 /kg$

$v_1 = v_f + x_1 ( vg - ( v_f)) \\ \\ v_1 = 0.7428 \times 10^{-3} + 0.2 (0.1247 -(0.7428 \times 10^{-3})) \\ \\ v_1 = 0.0255 \ m^3/kg \\ \\ \\ v_2 = v_g = 0.1247 \ m^3/kg$

$m = \rho_1A_1v_1 = \rho_2A_2v_2 \\ \\ m = \dfrac{1}{0.0255} \times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (1.7 \times 10^{-2})^2\times 6 \\ \\ \mathbf{m = 0.0534 \ kg/sec}$

$\rho_1A_1v_1 = \rho_2A_2v_2 \\ \\ A_1 =A_2 \\ \\ \rho_1v_1 = \rho_2v_2 \\ \\ \implies \dfrac{1}{0.0255} \times6 = \dfrac{1}{0.1247}\times (v_2)\\ \\ \\\mathbf{\\ v_2 = 29.34 \ m/sec}$
