An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500

mm. The gas enters the heating section of the duct at 100 kPa and 27 deg C with a volume flow rate of 15 m3/s. If heat is lost from the gas in the duct to the surroundings at a rate of 80 kW, Calculate the exit temperature of the gas in deg C. (Assume constant pressure, ideal gas, negligible change in kinetic and potential energies and constant specific heat; Cp =1000 J/kg K; R = 500 J/kg K)

Answer:

Exit temperature = 32 °C

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial Pressure;P1 = 100 KPa

Cp =1000 J/kg.K = 1 KJ/kg.k

R = 500 J/kg.K = 0.5 Kj/Kg.k

Initial temperature;T1 = 27°C = 273 + 27K = 300 K

volume flow rate;V' = 15 m³/s

W = 130 Kw

Q = 80 Kw

Using ideal gas equation,

PV' = m'RT

Where m' is mass flow rate.

Thus;making m' the subject, we have;

m' = PV'/RT

So at inlet,

m' = P1•V1'/(R•T1)

m' = (100 × 15)/(0.5 × 300)

m' = 10 kg/s

From steady flow energy equation, we know that;

m'•h1 + Q = m'h2 + W

Dividing through by m', we have;

h1 + Q/m' = h2 + W/m'

h = Cp•T

Thus,

Cp•T1 + Q/m' = Cp•T2 + W/m'

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

(1*300) - (80/10) = (1*T2) - (130/10)

Q and M negative because heat is being lost.

300 - 8 + 13 = T2

T2 = 305 K = 305 - 273 °C = 32 °C

13000 + 300 - 8000 = T2

1. Fatigue equations are based solely on theoretical assumptions. Experimental data is only used to verify the theory. a. True.b
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

1.  b. False

2. b. False

3.  b. False

4.  b. False

5. a. True

6. a. True

7.  b. False

8.  b. False

9. a. True

Explanation:

1. The fatigue properties of a material  are determined by series of test.

2. For most steels there is a level of fatigue limit below which a component will survive an infinite number of cycles, for aluminum and titanium a fatigue limit can not be defined, as failure will eventually occur after enough experienced cycles.

3. Although there is a cyclic stress, there are also stresses complex circumstances involving tensile to compresive and constant stress, where the solution is given into the mean stress and the stress amplitude or stress range, which is double the stress amplitude.

4. Low‐cycle fatigue is defined as few thousand cycles and high cycle fatigue is around more than 10,000 cycles.

5. The number of cycles for failure on brittle materials are less and determined compared with the ductile materials.

6.  The bending fatigue could be handled with specific load requirements  for uniform bending or axial fatigue of the same section size where the material near the surface is subjected to the  maximum stress, as in torsional fatigue, which can be performed on  axial-type specially designed machines also, using the proper fixtures if  the maximum twist required is small, in which linear motion is changed to rotational motion.

7.  A SN-Curve for a given material, is a plot displayed on logarithmic scales of the magnitude of an alternating stress in relation to the number of cycles to failure

8. The strain life method measures the strain resistance of local stresses and strains around stress concentration that controls the fatigue life of the material. It is more accurate than determining fatigue performance as the stress-life method is for long life millions of cycles in elastic stresses, but an it gets an effective stress concentration in fatigue loading.

9. Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) states that the material is isotropic and linear elastic so, when the stresses near the crack surpasses the material fracture toughness, the crack grows.
