You are considering building a residential wind power system to produce 6,000 kWh of electricity each year. The installed cost o

f the system is $1.50/Winstalled. The system is estimated to have a capacity factor of 22% and a 10 year life. The interest rate is 8% with an operations and maintenance cost of $0.04/kWhgenerated. What is the leveled cost of electricity for the system ($/kWh)?

Answer:

leveled cost of electricity LCOE is 0.1159/kwh

Explanation:

given data:

installation cost of system = $1.50/winstalled

capacity factor = 22%

life = 10 year

rate of interest 8%

operation and maintenance cost = $0.04 / kwh generated

capcaitence recovery factorCRF = \frac{i(i+1)^n}{(i+1)^n -1}

i= rate of interest

n = annuity period

CRF = \frac{0.08(1+0.08)^10}}{(1+0.08)^{10} -1} = 0.14903

LCOE = \frac{cost\ of \installation \times CRF}{hours/ available \times capacity\ factor} + variable\ o&M\ cost

=  \frac{1.50\times 1000/kw \times 0.14903}{8760\times 0.22} + 0.04/kwh

          = 0.1159/kwh + 0.04 /kwh

          = 0.1559 /kwh

A 1.8-m3 rigid tank contains water steam at 220oC. One-third of the volume is in the liquid phase and the rest is in the vapor f
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

a) 2319.6 kPa

b) 0.027

c) 287.86 kg/m^3

Explanation:

The pressure is determined from table  in the appendix for the given temperature:  

 P_220=2319.6 kPa

to calculate the quality we need to determine the masses of the vapor and the liquid and for that we need the respective specific volumes which can also be found in table.  

m_liq  = V_liq/α_liq

           = 504.2 kg

m_vap = V_vap/α_vap

            = 13.94 kg

        q = m_vap/m_liq

          = 0.027

Finally, the density is simply calculated as follows:  

        p = m_tot/V_tot

           = 518.14 kg/1.8 m^3

           = 287.86 kg/m^3

Consider an aircraft powered by a turbojet engine that has a pressure ratio of 9. The aircraft is stationary on the ground, held
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The break force that must be applied to hold the plane stationary is 12597.4 N

Explanation:

p₁ = p₂, T₁ = T₂

\dfrac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = \left (\dfrac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}  \right )^{\frac{K-1}{k} }

{T_{2}}{} = T_{1} \times \left (\dfrac{P_{2}}{P_{1}}  \right )^{\frac{K-1}{k} } = 280.15 \times \left (9  \right )^{\frac{1.333-1}{1.333} } = 485.03\ K

The heat supplied = \dot {m}_f × Heating value of jet fuel

The heat supplied = 0.5 kg/s × 42,700 kJ/kg = 21,350 kJ/s

The heat supplied = \dot m · c_p(T_3 - T_2)

\dot m = 20 kg/s

The heat supplied = 20*c_p(T_3 - T_2) = 21,350 kJ/s

c_p = 1.15 kJ/kg

T₃ = 21,350/(1.15*20) + 485.03 = 1413.3 K

p₂ = p₁ × p₂/p₁ = 95×9 = 855 kPa

p₃ = p₂ = 855 kPa

T₃ - T₄ = T₂ - T₁ = 485.03 - 280.15 = 204.88 K

T₄ = 1413.3 - 204.88 = 1208.42 K

\dfrac{T_5}{T_4}  = \dfrac{2}{1.333 + 1}

T₅ = 1208.42*(2/2.333) = 1035.94 K

C_j = \sqrt{\gamma \times R \times T_5} = √(1.333*287.3*1035.94) = 629.87 m/s

The total thrust = \dot m × C_j = 20*629.87 = 12597.4 N

Therefore;

The break force that must be applied to hold the plane stationary = 12597.4 N.

What is the saturation pressure, Vf, and Vg for saturated water at a temperature of 287 °C?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Vf = specific volume of saturated liquid  = 0.0217158 ft^3/lb

Vg = specific volume of saturated steam = 0.430129 ft^3/lb

Explanation:

Given data:

water temperature is given as 287-degree Celcius

we have to find Vf and Vg

Vf = specific volume of saturated liquid  

Vg = specific volume of saturated steam

we know that from the saturated steam table we can find these value

therefore for temperature 287-degree Celcius

Vf = specific volume of saturated liquid  = 0.0217158 ft^3/lb

Vg = specific volume of saturated steam = 0.430129 ft^3/lb

A 3.7 g mass is released from rest at C which has a height of 1.1 m above the base of a loop-the-loop and a radius of 0.2 m . Th
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Normal force = 0.326N

Explanation:

Given that:

mass released from rest at C = 3.7 g = 3.7 × 10⁻³ kg

height of the mass = 1.1 m

radius = 0.2 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

We are to determine the normal force pressing on the track at A.

To to that;

Let consider the conservation of energy relation; which says:

mgh = mgr + 1/2 mv²

gh = gr + 1/2 v²

gh - gr = 1/2v²

g(h-r) = 1/2v²

v² = 2g(h-r)

However; the normal force will result to a centripetal force; as such, using the relation

N =mv²/r

replacing the value for v² = 2g(h-r) in the above relation; we have:

Normal force = 2mg(h-r)/r

Normal force = 2 × 3.7 × 10⁻³ × 9.8 ( 1.1 - 0.2 )/ 0.2

Normal force = 0.065268/0.2

Normal force = 0.32634 N

Normal force = 0.326N
