If the rotational speed of a pump motor is reduced by 35%, what is the effect on the pump performance in terms of capacity, head

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

- the capacity of the pump reduces by 35%.

- the head gets reduced by 57%.

the power consumption by the pump is reduced by 72%

Explanation:

the pump capacity is related to the speed as speed is reduces by 35%

so new speed is (100 - 35) = 65% of orginal speed

speed Q ∝ N ⇒ Q1/Q2 = N1/N2

Q2 = (N2/N1)Q1

Q2 = (65/100)Q1

which means that the capacity of the pump is also reduces by 35%.

the head in a pump is related by

H ∝ N² ⇒ H1/H2 = N1²/N2²

H2 = (N2N1)²H1

H2 = (65/100)²H1 = 0.4225H1

so the head gets reduced by 1 - 0.4225 = 0.5775 which is 57%.

Now The power requirement of a pump is related as

P ∝ N³ ⇒ P1/P2 = N1³/N2³

P2 = (N2/N1)³P1

H2 = (65/100)²P1 = 0.274P1

So the reduction in power is 1 - 0.274 = 0.725 which is 72%

Therefore for a reduction of 35% of speed there is a reduction of 72% of the power consumption by the pump.

A ductile hot-rolled steel bar has a minimum yield strength in tension and compression of 350 MPa. Using the distortion-energy a

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given question:

Using the distortion energy theory to determine the factors of safety FOS can be expressed by the relation:

$\dfrac{Syt}{FOS}= \sqrt{ \sigma x^2+\sigma y^2-\sigma x \sigma y+3 \tau_{xy^2}}$

where; syt = strength in tension and compression = 350 MPa

The maximum shear stress theory can be expressed as:

$\tau_{max} = \dfrac{Syt}{2FOS}$

where;

$\tau_{max} =\sqrt{ (\dfrac{\sigma x-\sigma y}{2})^2+ \tau _{xy^2$

a. Using distortion - energy theory formula:

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}= \sqrt{94^2+0^2-94*0+3 (-75)^2}}$

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}=160.35$

${FOS}=\dfrac{350}{160.35}$

FOS = 2.183

USing the maximum-shear stress theory;

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =\sqrt{ (\dfrac{94-0}{2})^2+ (-75)^2$

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =88.51$

$\dfrac{350}{ FOS} =2 \times 88.51$

${ FOS} =\dfrac{350}{2 \times 88.51}$

FOS = 1.977

b. σx = 110 MPa, σy = 100 MPa

Using distortion - energy theory formula:

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}= \sqrt{ 110^2+100^2-110*100+3(0)^2}$

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}= \sqrt{ 12100+10000-11000$

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}=105.3565$

$FOS=\dfrac{350}{105.3565}$

FOS =3.322

USing the maximum-shear stress theory;

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =\sqrt{ (\dfrac{110-100}{2})^2+ (0)^2$

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} ={ (\dfrac{110-100}{2})^2$

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =25$

FOS = 350/2×25

FOS = 350/50

FOS = 70

c. σx = 90 MPa, σy = 20 MPa, τxy =−20 MPa

Using distortion- energy theory formula:

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}= \sqrt{ 90^2+20^2-90*20+3(-20)^2}$

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}= \sqrt{ 8100+400-1800+1200}$

$\dfrac{350}{FOS}= 88.88$

FOS = 350/88.88

FOS = 3.939

USing the maximum-shear stress theory;

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =\sqrt{ (\dfrac{90-20}{2})^2+ (-20)^2$

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =\sqrt{ (35)^2+ (-20)^2$

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =\sqrt{ 1225+ 400$

$\dfrac{350}{2 FOS} =40.31$

$FOS} =\dfrac{350}{2*40.31}$

FOS = 4.341
