Which friction-reducing technologies are used in the Variable Compression Turbo Engine?

1 answer:

4 0

Friction-reducing technologies used in the Variable Compression Turbo Engine are Diamond-like coating on valve lifters, micro finishing on crankshaft and camshaft and mirror bore coating on cylinder wall.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Variable compression is a technology to adjust the compression of an internal combustion engine while the engine is in operation. At this time friction may occur that need to be reduced. To reduce this friction some technologies are used like

Diamond-like coating on valve lifters
Micro finishing on crankshaft and camshaft
Mirror bore coating on cylinder wall

A hydrogen free diamond like carbon coating is applied to an engine valve lifter to reduce mechanical loss. Micro finishing on crankshaft and camshaft achieves improvement in geometric parameters such as roundness. Mirror bore coating on cylinder wall raises energy efficiency by reducing the friction inside the engine.

Explain why a person who has runny nose is unable to detect smells clearly.

Orlov [11]

If you have a runny nose then the mucus will block the path that smell goes through. So if you are trying to smell a flower then you will have a hard time because the mucus is in the way, or blocking the entrance path. Hope this helps:)

The 10-lb block has a speed of 4 ft/s when the force of f=(8t2)f=(8t2) lb is applied. determine the velocity of the block when t

KatRina [158]

The velocity of the block when t == 2 s is 60.7 ft./sec.

Equations of Motion.

Here the friction is $F_f = \mu_k N$ = 0.2 N

$+ \uparrow \sum F_y = ma_y; \quad N – 10 = \frac { 10 } { 32.2 }(0) \quad N = 10 lb \\ \begin{aligned} \underrightarrow{ + } \sum F_x = ma_x; \quad 8t^2 – 0.2(10 &) = \frac { 10 } { 32.2 }a \\ & a = 3.22(8t^2 – 2) ft/s^2 \end{aligned}$

Kinematics.

The velocity of the block as a function of t can be determined by

integrating dv = adt using the initial condition v = 4 ft./s at t = 0.

$\int_{ 4 ft/s }^{ v } dv = \int_0^t 3.22(8t^2 – 2)dt \\ \begin{aligned} v – &4 = 3.22 (\frac 8 3 t^3 – 2t) \\ & v = \{8.5867t^3 – 6.44t + 4 \} ft/s \end{aligned}$

The displacement as a function of t can be determined by integrating

ds = vdt using

the initial condition s = 0 at t = 0

$\int_0^s ds = \int_0^t (8.5867t^3 – 6.44t + 4)dt \\ s = \{2.1467t^4 – 3.22t^2 + 4t \} ft$

at t = 2 sec

s = 30 ft.

Thus, at s = 30 ft.,

$\begin{aligned} v &= 8.5867(2.0089^3) – 6.44(2.0089) + 4 \\ &= 60.67 ft/s \\ &= 60.7 ft/s \end{aligned}$

Kinematics is a subfield of physics, developed in classical mechanics, that describes the motion of points, bodies (objects), and systems of bodies (groups of objects) without considering the forces that cause them to move.

Kinematics, as a field of study, is often referred to as the "geometry of motion" and is occasionally seen as a branch of mathematics. A kinematics problem begins by describing the geometry of the system and declaring the initial conditions of any known values of position, velocity and/or acceleration of points within the system.

Then, using arguments from geometry, the position, velocity and acceleration of any unknown parts of the system can be determined. The study of how forces act on bodies falls within kinetics, not kinematics. For further details, see analytical dynamics.

A force of 30 N stretches a very light ideal spring 0.73 m from equilibrium. What is the force constant (spring constant) of the

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = k*n

F = 30N

k = ???

N = 0.73 M

F = k* N

30N = k * 0.73

k = 30N / 0.73

k = 41.1
