Answer:

a) 1253 kJ

b) 714 kJ

c) 946 C

Explanation:

The thermal efficiency is given by this equation

η = L/Q1

Where

η: thermal efficiency

L: useful work

Q1: heat taken from the heat source

Rearranging:

Q1 = L/η

Replacing

Q1 = 539 / 0.43 = 1253 kJ

The first law of thermodynamics states that:

Q = L + ΔU

For a machine working in cycles ΔU is zero between homologous parts of the cycle.

Also we must remember that we count heat entering the system as positiv and heat leaving as negative.

We split the heat on the part that enters and the part that leaves.

Q1 + Q2 = L + 0

Q2 = L - Q1

Q2 = 539 - 1253 = -714 kJ

TO calculate a temperature for the heat sink we must consider this cycle as a Carnot cycle. Then we can use the thermal efficiency equation for the Carnot cycle, this one uses temperatures:

η = 1 - T2/T1

T2/T1 = 1 - η

T2 = (1 - η) * T1

The temperatures must be given in absolute scale (1453 C = 1180 K)

T2 = (1 - 0.43) * 1180 = 673 K

673 K = 946 C

Murljashka [212]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The solid rod shown is fixed to a wall, and a torque T = 85N?m is applied to the end of the rod. The diameter of the rod is 46mm .

When the rod is circular, radial lines remain straight and sections perpendicular to the axis do not warp. In this case, the strains vary linearly along radial lines. Within the proportional limit, the stress also varies linearly along radial lines. If point A is located 12 mm from the center of the rod, what is the magnitude of the shear stress at that point?

Solution :

Given data :

Diameter of the rod : 46 mm

Torque, T = 85 Nm

The polar moment of inertia of the shaft is given by :

$J=\frac{\pi}{32}d^4$

$J=\frac{\pi}{32}\times (46)^4$

J = 207.6 mm^4

So the shear stress at point  A is :

$\tau_A =\frac{Tc_A}{J}$

$\tau_A =\frac{85 \times 10^3\times 12 }{207.6}$

$\tau_A = 4913.29 \ MPa$

Therefore, the magnitude of the shear stress at point A is 4913.29 MPa.

Explanation:

<u>Determine power developed at steady state </u>

First step : Determine mass flow rate  ( m )

m / Mmax = ( AV )₁ P₁ / RT₁   -------------------- ( 1 )

<em> where : ( AV )₁ = 8.2 kg/s,  P₁ = 0.35 * 10^6 N/m^2,   R = 8.314 N.M / kmol , </em>

<em>  T₁  = 720 K . </em>

insert values into equation 1

m  = 0.1871  kmol/s  ( mix )

Next : calculate power developed at steady state ( using ideal gas tables to get the h values of the gases )

W( power developed at steady state )

W = m [ Yco2 ( h1 - h2 )co2

Attached below is the remaining  part of the detailed solution
