Answer:

Explanation:

Floor Load:

Lo= 50psf

At= 25x25 = 625 square feet

L= Lo(0.25 +15/\sqrt{KuAt)}

L=50(0.25+15/\sqrt{(4)(625)}= 13.1psf

%reduction= 13.1/50 = 26%

Fr= 3[(13.1psf)(25ft)(25ft)+(20psf)(25ft)(25ft)]= 62k

A steam turbine receives 8 kg/s of steam at 9 MPa, 650 C and 60 m/s (pressure, temperature and velocity). It discharges liquid-v
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

The power produced by the turbine is 23309.1856 kW

Explanation:

h₁ = 3755.39

s₁ = 7.0955

s₂ = sf + x₂sfg  =

Interpolating fot the pressure at 3.25 bar gives;

570.935 +(3.25 - 3.2)/(3.3 - 3.2)*(575.500 - 570.935) = 573.2175

2156.92 +(3.25 - 3.2)/(3.3 - 3.2)*(2153.77- 2156.92) = 2155.345

h₂ = 573.2175 + 0.94*2155.345 = 2599.2418 kJ/kg

Power output of the turbine formula =

Q - \dot{W } = \dot{m}\left [ \left (h_{2}-h_{1}  \right )+\dfrac{v_{2}^{2}- v_{1}^{2}}{2} + g(z_{2}-z_{1})\right ]

Which gives;

560 - \dot{W } = 8\left [ \left (2599.2418-3755.39  \right )+\dfrac{15^{2}- 60^{2}}{2} \right ]

= -8*((2599.2418 - 3755.39)+(15^2 - 60^2)/2 ) = -22749.1856

- \dot{W } = -22749.1856 - 560 = -23309.1856 kJ

\dot{W } = 23309.1856 kJ

Power produced by the turbine = Work done per second = 23309.1856 kW.

Flow and Pressure Drop of Gases in Packed Bed. Air at 394.3 K flows through a packed bed of cylinders having a diameter of 0.012
devlian [24]

The pressure drop of air in the bed is  14.5 kPa.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate Re:

R e=\frac{1}{1-\varepsilon} \frac{\rho q d_{p}}{\mu}

From the tables air property

\mu_{394 k}=2.27 \times 10^{-5}

Ideal gas law is used to calculate the density:

ρ = \frac{2.2}{2.83 \times 10^{-3} \times 394.3}

ρ = 1.97 Kg / m^{3}

ρ = \frac{P}{RT}

R = \frac{R_{c} }{M} = 8.2 × 10^{-5} / 28.97×10^{-3}

R = 2.83 × 10^{-3} m^{3} atm / K Kg

q is expressed in the unit m/s

q=\frac{2.45}{1.97}

q = 1.24 m/s

Re = \frac{1}{1-0.4} \frac{1.97 \times 1.24 \times 0.0127}{2.27 \times 10^{-5}}

Re = 2278

The Ergun equation is used when Re > 10,

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=\frac{180 \mu}{d_{p}^{2}} \frac{(1-\varepsilon)^{2}}{\varepsilon^{3}} q+\frac{7}{4} \frac{\rho}{d_{p}} \frac{(1-\varepsilon)}{\varepsilon^{3}} q^{2}

\frac{\Delta P}{L}=\frac{180 \times 2.27 \times 10^{-5}}{0.0127^{2}} \frac{(1-0.4)^{2}}{0.4^{3}} 1.24 +\frac{7}{4} \frac{1.97}{0.0127} \frac{(1-0.4)}{0.4^{3}} 1.24^{2}

= 4089.748 Pa/m

ΔP = 4089.748 × 3.66

ΔP = 14.5 kPa

A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine operates at 2800 RPM. The processes within each cylinder are modeled as
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1) 287760.4 Hp

2) 18410899.5 kPa

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

p₁ = 14.7 lbf/in² = 101325.9 Pa

v₁ = 0.0196 ft³ = 0.00055501 m³

T₁ = 80°F = 299.8167 K

k = 1.4

Assumptions;

1) Air standard conditions are appropriate

2) There are negligible potential and kinetic energy changes

3) The air behaves as an ideal gas and has constant specific heat capacities of temperature and pressure

1) Process 1 to 2

Isentropic compression

T₂/T₁ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4 - 1) = 10^0.4

p₂/p₁ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4)

p₂ = p₁×10^0.4 =  101325.9*10^0.4 = 254519.153 Pa

T₂ = 299.8167*10^0.4 = 753.106 K

p₃ = 1080 lbf/in² = 7,446,338 Pa

Stage 2 to 3 is a constant volume process

p₃/T₃ = p₂/T₂

7,446,338/T₃ =   254519.153/753.106

T₃ = 7,446,338/(254519.153/753.106) = 22033.24 K

T₃/T₄ = (v₁/v₂)^(1.4 - 1) = 10^0.4

T₄ = 22033.24/(10^0.4) = 8771.59 K

The heat supplied, Q₁ = cv(T₃ - T₂) = 0.718*(22033.24 -753.106) = 15279.14 kJ

The heat rejected = cv(T₄ - T₁) = 0.718*(8771.59 - 299.8167) = 6082.73 kJ

W(net) = The heat supplied - The heat rejected = (15279.14 - 6082.73) = 9196.41 kJ

The power = W(net) × RPM/2*1/60 = 9196.41 * 2800/2*1/60 = 214582.9 kW

The power by the engine = 214582.9 kW = 287760.4 Hp

2) The mean effective pressure, MEP  = W(net)/(v₁ - v₂)

v₁ = 0.00055501 m³

v₁/v₂ = 10

v₂ = v₁/10 = 0.00055501/10 = 0.000055501

MEP  = 9196.41/(0.00055501 -  0.000055501) = 18410899.5 kPa

The atmosphere within a room is at 70 °F dry-bulb temperature, 50 percent degree of saturation, and 14.696 psia pressure. The in
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Given that the temperature of the window is below the dew point it will condensate.

Explanation:

A psychrometric chart (like the one attached) will give you the information needed. This chart is for 14.696 psia.

On the bottom horizontal axes you have the dry-bulb temperature, in this case 70°F, going up from this point you can reach the 50% relative humidity curve (red point on chart), going horizontally from this point to the 100% relative humidity you get the dew point temperature (the point at which moisture will condensate) (blue point on chart). In this case the dew point is 50°C. Given that the temperature of the window is below the dew point it will condensate.
