An extruder barrel has a diameter of 4.22 inches and a length of 75 inches. The screw rotates at 65 revolutions per minute. The

screw channel depth = 0.23 in, and the flight angle = 21.4 degrees. The head pressure at the die end of the barrel is 705 lb/in2. The viscosity of the polymer melt is given as 145 x 10-4 lb·sec/in2. Calculate the volume flow rate in in3/sec of the plastic through the barrel.

Answer:

volume flow rate Q = 53.23 in³/s

Explanation:

given data

diameter = 4.22 inches

length = 75 inches

screw rotates = 65 revolutions per minute

depth = 0.23 in

flight angle = 21.4 degrees

head pressure = 705 lb/in²

viscosity = 145 x $10^{-4}$ lb·sec/in²

solution

we get here volume flow rate of platstic in barrel that is express as

volume flow rate Q = volume flow rate of die - volume flow of extruder barrel ................1

here

volume flow rate extruder barrel is

flow rate = $\frac{\pi \times 705 \times 4.22 \times 0.23\times sin21.4 }{12\times 145 \times 10^{-4}\times 75 }$

flow rate = 60.10

and

volume flow rate of die is express as

volume flow rate = 0.5 × π² × D² × Ndc × sinA × cosA .............2

put here value and w eget

volume flow rate = 0.5 × π² × 4.22² × 0.23 × 1 × sin21.4 × cos21.4

volume flow rate = 6.866

so put value in equation 1 we get

volume flow rate Q = 60.10 - 6.866

volume flow rate Q = 53.23

The gage pressure measured as 2.2 atm, the absolute pressure of gas is 3.2 bar. Please determine the local atmospheric pressure

LiRa [457]

Answer:

$97.085\ \text{kPa}$

Explanation:

$P_{g}$ = Gauge pressure = 2.2 atm = $2.2\times 101325=222915\ \text{Pa}$

$P_{abs}$ = Absolute pressure = $3.2\ \text{bar}=3.2\times 10^5\ \text{Pa}$

$P_{atm}$ = Local atmospheric pressure

Absolute pressure is given by

$P_{abs}=P_{atm}+P_g\\\Rightarrow P_{atm}=P_{abs}-P_g\\\Rightarrow P_{atm}=3.2\times 10^5-222915\\\Rightarrow P_{atm}=97085\ \text{Pa}=97.085\ \text{kPa}$

The local atmospheric pressure is $97.085\ \text{kPa}$ .

The human body gets its energy via the combustion of blood sugar (glucose). if all of the chemical bond energy in 10 g of glucos

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

Explanation:

given data

glucose = 10 g

mass = 100 kg

to find out

speed by mass attain

solution

we know glucose have 180 g molecular weight and

that 1 g glucose produce energy = 2816/180 × 10³ J

so here 10 g of glucose produce energy = 1.56 × $10^{5}$ J

so here energy release = 1/2 × mv²

1.56 × $10^{5}$ = 1/2 × (100)v²

v² = 3.12 × 10³

and v = 55.86 m/s

so speed by mass attain is 55.86 m/s

Concentrating solar power (CSP) plants use mirrors to concentrate the sun's energy to drive traditional steam turbines or engines that create electricity. The thermal energy concentrated in a CSP plant can be stored and used to produce electricity when it is needed, day or night. Today, roughly 1,815 megawatts (MWac) of CSP plants are in operation in the United States.

Parabolic Trough
Parabolic trough systems use curved mirrors to focus the sun’s energy onto a receiver tube that runs down the center of a trough. In the receiver tube, a high-temperature heat transfer fluid (such as a synthetic oil) absorbs the sun’s energy, reaching temperatures of 750°F or higher, and passes through a heat exchanger to heat water and produce steam. The steam drives a conventional steam turbine power system to generate electricity. A typical solar collector field contains hundreds of parallel rows of troughs connected as a series of loops, which are placed on a north-south axis so the troughs can track the sun from east to west. Individual collector modules are typically 15-20 feet tall and 300-450 feet long.

Compact Linear Fresnel Reflector
CLFR uses the principles of curved-mirror trough systems, but with long parallel rows of lower-cost flat mirrors. These modular reflectors focus the sun's energy onto elevated receivers, which consist of a system of tubes through which water flows. The concentrated sunlight boils the water, generating high-pressure steam for direct use in power generation and industrial steam applications.

Explanation:

The magnetic force is

F = qvB sin θ

We see that sin θ = 1, since the angle between the velocity and the direction of the field is 90º. Entering the other given quantities yields
