Two identical 3 in. major-diameter power screws (single-threaded) with modified square threads are used to raise and lower a 50-

ton sluice gate of a dam. Quality of construction and maintenance (including lubrication) are good, resulting in an estimated friction coefficient of only 0.1 for the screw. Collar friction can be neglected, as ball thrust bearings are used. Assuming that, because of gate friction, each screw must provide a lifting force of 26 tons, what power is required to drive each screw when the gate is being raised at the rate of 3 ft/min

A steel rod, which is free to move, has a length of 200 mm and a diameter of 20 mm at a temperature of 15oC. If the rod is heate
kherson [118]

Explanation:

thermal expansion ∝L = (δL/δT)÷L ----(1)

δL = L∝L + δT ----(2)

we have δL = 12.5x10⁻⁶

length l = 200mm

δT = 115°c - 15°c = 100°c

putting these values into equation 1, we have

δL = 200*12.5X10⁻⁶x100

= 0.25 MM

L₂ = L + δ L

= 200 + 0.25

L₂ = 200.25mm

12.5X10⁻⁶ *115-15 * 20

= 0.025

20 +0.025

D₂ = 20.025

as this rod undergoes free expansion at 115°c, the stress on this rod would be = 0

In normal operation, a paper mill generates excess steam at 20 bar and 400◦C. It is planned to use this steam as the feed to a t
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The maximum power that can be generated is 127.788 kW

Explanation:

Using the steam table

Enthalpy at 20 bar = 2799 kJ/kg

Enthalpy at 2 bar = 2707 kJ/kg

Change in enthalpy = 2799 - 2707 = 92 kJ/kg

Mass flow rate of steam = 5000 kg/hr = 5000 kJ/hr × 1 hr/3600 s = 1.389 kg/s

Maximum power generated = change in enthalpy × mass flow rate = 92 kJ/kg × 1.389 kg/s = 127.788 kJ/s = 127.788 kW
