Windmills slow the air and cause it to fill a larger channel as it passes through the blades. Consider a circular windmill with

a D1 = 8m diameter rotor in a V1 = 12m/s wind. The wind speed after the windmill is measured at 8 m/s. (a) (7 pt) Determine the diameter of the wind channel downstream from the rotor (D2). (b) (8 pt) Calculate the power produced by this windmill in kW. Assume air is incompressible and use air density of 1.2kg/m3 .

Answer:

DIAMETER  = 9.797 m

POWER = \dot W = 28.6 kW

Explanation:

Given data:

circular windmill diamter D1 = 8m

v1 = 12 m/s

wind speed = 8 m/s

we know that specific volume is given as

v =\frac{RT}{P}

  where v is specific volume of air

considering air pressure is 100 kPa and temperature 20 degree celcius

v =  \frac{0.287\times 293}{100}

v = 0.8409 m^3/ kg

from continuity equation

A_1 V_1 = A_2 V_2

\frac{\pi}{4}D_1^2 V_1 = \frac{\pi}{4}D_1^2 V_2

D_2 = D_1 \sqrt{\frac{V_1}{V_2}}

D_2 = 8 \times \sqrt{\frac{12}{8}}

D_2 = 9.797 m

mass flow rate is given as

\dot m = \frac{A_1 V_1}{v} = \frac{\pi 8^2\times 12}{4\times 0.8049}

\dot m = 717.309 kg/s

the power produced \dot W = \dot m \frac{ V_1^2 - V_2^2}{2} = 717.3009 [\frac{12^2 - 8^2}{2} \times \frac{1 kJ/kg}{1000 m^2/s^2}]

\dot W = 28.6 kW

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Local judges protected businessmen from paying property damages associated with factory construction and from workers seeking to unionize.

Explanation:

The Market Revolution is the name given to change in the economy that occurred in the 19th century. This drastic change led to various important changes in the United States and across the world. During this period, capitalism became more entrenched and society became, for the first time, predominantly capitalist. This gave businessmen great power, as they played an increasingly important role when it came to economic growth. The power that they had influenced society deeply, including legislation. Judges often protected businessmen from paying property damages that were associated with their business enterprises. Moreover, workers had few rights and protections, and judges prevented them from unionizing.

In an air standard diesel cycle compression starts at 100kpa and 300k. the compression ratio is 16 to 1. The maximum cycle tempe
KIM [24]

Answer:

\eta=0.60

Explanation:

Given :Take \gamma=1.4 for air

      P_1=100 KPa  ,T_1=300K

  \frac{V_1}{V_2}=r ⇒ r=16

As we know that  

   T_2=T_1(r^{\gamma-1})

So T_2=300\times 16^{\gamma-1}

  T_2=909.42K

Now find the cut off ration \rho

      \rho=\frac{V_3}{V_2}  

         \frac{V_3}{V_2}=\frac{T_3}{T_2}

\rho=\frac{2031}{909.42}

 \rho=2.23

So efficiency of diesel engine

\eta =1-\dfrac{\rho^\gamma-1}{\gamma\times r^{\gamma-1}(\rho-1)}

Now by putting the all values

\eta =1-\dfrac{2.23^{1.4}-1}{1.4\times 16^{1.4-1}(2.23-1)}

So \eta=0.60

So the efficiency of diesel engine=0.60
