Discuss the applications of numerical weather forecasting​
olchik [2.2K]

Numerical weather prediction (NWP) uses mathematical models of the atmosphere and oceans to predict the weather based on current weather conditions. Though first attempted in the 1920s, it was not until the advent of computer simulation in the 1950s that numerical weather predictions produced realistic results. A number of global and regional forecast models are run in different countries worldwide, using current weather observations relayed from radiosondes, weather satellites and other observing systems as inputs.

A four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine has a bore of 3.7 in. and a stroke of 3.4 in. The clearance volume is 16
Bad White [126]

Answer:

the net work per cycle \mathbf{W_{net} = 0.777593696}  Btu per cycle

the power developed by the engine, W = 88.0144746 hp

Explanation:

the information given includes;

diameter of the four-cylinder bore = 3.7 in

length of the stroke = 3.4 in

The clearance volume = 16% = 0.16

The cylindrical volume V_2 = 0.16 V_1

the crankshaft N rotates at a speed of  2400 RPM.

At the beginning of the compression , temperature T_1 = 60 F = 519.67 R    

and;

Otto cycle with a pressure =  14.5 lbf/in² = (14.5 × 144 ) lb/ft²

= 2088 lb/ft²

The maximum temperature in the cycle is 5200 R

From the given information; the change in volume is:

V_1-V_2 = \dfrac{\pi}{4}D^2L

V_1-0.16V_1= \dfrac{\pi}{4}(3.7)^2(3.4)

V_1-0.16V_1= 36.55714291

0.84 V_1 =36.55714291

V_1 =\dfrac{36.55714291}{0.84 }

V_1 =43.52040823 \ in^3 \\ \\  V_1 = 43.52 \ in^3

V_1 = 0.02518 \ ft^3

the mass in air ( lb) can be determined by using the formula:

m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT}

where;

R = 53.3533 ft.lbf/lb.R°

m = \dfrac{2088 \ lb/ft^2 \times 0.02518 \ ft^3}{53.3533 \ ft .lbf/lb.^0R  \times 519 .67 ^0 R}

m = 0.0018962 lb

From the tables  of ideal gas properties at Temperature 519.67 R

v_{r1} =158.58

u_1 = 88.62 Btu/lb

At state of volume 2; the relative volume can be determined as:

v_{r2} = v_{r1}  \times \dfrac{V_2}{V_1}

v_{r2} = 158.58 \times 0.16

v_{r2} = 25.3728

The specific energy u_2 at v_{r2} = 25.3728 is 184.7 Btu/lb

From the tables of ideal gas properties at maximum Temperature T = 5200 R

v_{r3} = 0.1828

u_3 = 1098 \ Btu/lb

To determine the relative volume at state 4; we have:

v_{r4} = v_{r3} \times \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}

v_{r4} =0.1828 \times \dfrac{1}{0.16}

v_{r4} =1.1425

The specific energy u_4 at v_{r4} =1.1425 is 591.84 Btu/lb

Now; the net work per cycle can now be calculated as by using the following formula:

W_{net} = Heat  \ supplied - Heat  \ rejected

W_{net} = m(u_3-u_2)-m(u_4 - u_1)

W_{net} = m(u_3-u_2- u_4 + u_1)

W_{net} = m(1098-184.7- 591.84 + 88.62)

W_{net} = 0.0018962 \times (1098-184.7- 591.84 + 88.62)

W_{net} = 0.0018962 \times (410.08)

\mathbf{W_{net} = 0.777593696}  Btu per cycle

the power developed by the engine, in horsepower. can be calculated as follows;

In the  four-cylinder, four-stroke internal combustion engine; the power developed by the engine can be calculated by using the expression:

W = 4 \times N'  \times W_{net

where ;

N' = \dfrac{2400}{2}

N' = 1200 cycles/min

N' = 1200 cycles/60 seconds

N' = 20 cycles/sec

W = 4 × 20 cycles/sec ×  0.777593696

W = 62.20749568 Btu/s

W = 88.0144746 hp

Calculate the radius of gyration for a bar of rectangular cross section with thickness t and width w for bending in the directio
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

a)R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)

Explanation:

Thickness = t

Width = w

Length od diagonal =sqrt (t² +w²)

Area of raectangle = A= tW

Radius of gyration= r= sqrt( I/A)

a)

Moment of inertia in the direction of thickness I = w t³/12

R= sqrt( wt³/12wt)

b)

Moment of inertia in the direction of width I = t w³/12

R=sqrt(tw³/12wt)

c)

Moment of inertia in the direction of diagonal I= (w t³/12)cos 45=( wt³/12)x 1/sqrt (2)

R= sqrt ( wt³/12xcos45xwt)
