Answer:
The lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.
Explanation:
Length of curve is given as
is given as
The K value is given from the table 3.3 for 55 mi/hr is 115. So the value of A is given as
A is given as
With initial grade, the elevation of PVC is
The station is given as
Low point is given as
The station of low point is given as
The elevation is given as
So the lowest point of the curve is at 239+42.5 ft where elevation is 124.16 ft.
Answer:
a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%
b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)
Please kindly see explaination and attachment.
Explanation:
a) isentropic efficiency = 84.905%
b) rate of entropy generation = .341 kj/(kg.k)
The Isentropic efficiency of a turbine is a comparison of the actual power output with the Isentropic case.
Entropy can be defined as the thermodynamic quantity representing the unavailability of a system's thermal energy for conversion into mechanical work, often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.
