A vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.2 m3 of air at 20°C. The mass of the piston is such that it maintains a c

onstant pressure of 300 kPa inside. Now a valve connected to the cylinder device is opened, and air is allowed to escape until the volume inside the cylinder is decreased by one-half. Heat transfer is allowed during the process so that the temperature of the air in the cylinder remains constant. Determine (a) the amount of air that has left the cylinder and (b) the amount of heat transfer.

Answer:

Amount of air left in the cylinder=m_{2}=0.357 Kg

The amount of heat transfer=Q=0

Explanation:

Given

Initial pressure=P1=300 KPa

Initial volume=V1=0.2m^{3}

Initial temperature=T_{1}=20 C

Final Volume=V_{2}=0.1 m^{3}

Using gas equation

m_{1}=((P_{1}*V_{1})/(R*T_{1}))

m1==(300*0.2)/(.287*293)

m1=0.714 Kg

Similarly

m2=(P2*V2)/R*T2

m2=(300*0.1)/(0.287*293)

m2=0.357 Kg

Now calculate mass of air left,where me is the mass of air left.

me=m2-m1

me=0.715-0.357

mass of air left=me=0.357 Kg

To find heat transfer we need to apply energy balance equation.

Q=(m_{e}*h_{e})+(m_{2}*h_{2})-(m_{1}*h_{1})

Where me=m1-m2

And as the temperature remains constant,hence the enthalpy also remains constant.

h1=h2=he=h

Q=(me-(m1-m2))*h

me=m1-me

Thus heat transfer=Q=0

A 4-stroke Diesel engine with a displacement of Vd = 2.5x10^-3m^3 produces a mean effective pressure of 6.4 bar at the speed of
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The power developed by engine is 167.55 KW

Explanation:

Given that

V_d=2.5\times 10^{-3} m^3

Mean effective pressure = 6.4 bar

Speed = 2000 rpm

We know that power is the work done per second.

So

P=6.4\times 100\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\times \dfrac{2\pi \times2000}{120}

We have to notice one point that we divide by 120 instead of 60, because it is a 4 cylinder engine.

P=167.55 KW

So the power developed by engine is 167.55 KW

Which regulations are related to guard rail height and dimensions and uniformity of stairs?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C.

structural safety

Explanation:

Guards protecting floor surfaces must be 36 inches in height, while guards for stairs must be 34 inches in height measured vertically from the tread nosing. A guard may also serve as the required handrail (34 to 38 inches high) provided the top rail meets the requirements for grip size.
