Air flows through a convergent-divergent duct with an inlet area of 5 cm² and an exit area of 3.8 cm². At the inlet section, the

air velocity is 100 m/s, the pressure is 680 kPa, and the temperature is 60°C.
Find the mass flow rate through the nozzle and, assuming isentropic flow, the pressure, and velocity at the exit section.

Answer:

The mass flow rate is 0.27 kg/s

The exit velocity is 76.1 m/s

The exit pressure is 695 KPa

Explanation:

Assuming the flow to be steady state and the behavior of air as an ideal gas.

The mass flow rate of the air is given as:

Mass Flow Rate = ρ x A1 x V1

where,

ρ = density of air

A1 = inlet area = 3.8 cm² = 3.8 x 10^-4 m²

V1 = inlet velocity = 100 m/s

For density using general gas equation:

PV = nRT

PV = (m/M)RT

PM/RT = ρ

ρ = (680000 N/m²)(0.02897 kg/mol)/(8.314 J/mol.k)(60 + 273)k

ρ = 7.11 kg/m³

Therefore,

Mass Flow Rate = (7.11 kg/m³)(3.8 x 10^-4 m²)(100 m/s)

<u>Mass Flow Rate = 0.27 kg/s = 270 g/s</u>

Now, for steady flow, the mass flow rate remains constant throughout the flow. Hence, flow rate at inlet will be equal to the flow rate at outlet:

Mass Flow Rate = ρ x A2 x V2

where,

ρ = density of air = 7.11 kg/m³ (Assuming in-compressible flow)

A2 = exit area = 5 cm² = 5 x 10^-4 m²

V2 = exit velocity = ?

Therefore:

0.27 kg/s = (7.11 kg/m³)(5 x 10^-4 m²) V2

<u>V2 = 76.1 m/s</u>

Now, for exit pressure, we use Bernoulli's equation between inlet and exit, using subscript 1 for inlet and 2 for exit:

P1 + (1/2) ρ V1² + ρ g h1 = P2 + (1/2) ρ V2² + ρ g h2

Since, both inlet and exit are at same temperature.

Therefore, h1 = h2, and those terms will cancel out.

P1 + (1/2) ρ V1² = P2 + (1/2) ρ V2²

P2 = P1 + (1/2) ρ V1² - (1/2) ρ V2²

P2 = P1 + (1/2) ρ (V1² - V2²)

P2 = 680000 Pa + (0.5)(7.11 kg/m³)[(100m/s)² - (76.1 m/s)²]

P2 = 680000 Pa + 14962.25 Pa

<u>P2 = 694962.25 Pa = 695 KPa</u>

State the mathematical expression to define the availability of equipment over a specified time and operational availability?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Availability=\dfrac{Up\ time}{Down\ time+Up\ time}

Explanation:

Availability:

  It define as the probability of system which perform desired task before showing any failure .

The availability can be define as follows

 Availability=\dfrac{Up\ time}{Down\ time+Up\ time}

Or we can say that

Availability=\dfrac{Up\ time}{total\ time}

Availability can also be express as

 Availability=\dfrac{MTBF}{MTBF+MTTR}

Where MTBF is the mean time between two failure.

MTTR is the mean time to repair.

Design for human-fit strategies include:
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

B- extreme fit, close fit, adjustable fit

Explanation:

A human-fit design typically involves the process of manufacturing or producing products (tools) that are easy to use by the end users. Therefore, human-fit designs mainly deals with creating ideas that makes the use of a particular product comfortable and convenient for the end users.

The design for human-fit strategies include; extreme fit, close fit and adjustable fit.

Hence, when the aforementioned strategies are properly integrated into a design process, it helps to ensure the ease of use of products and guarantees comfort for the end users.
