Please define the coefficient of thermal expansion?

Engineering
1 answer:
Vikki [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The coefficient of thermal expansion tells us how much a material can expand due to heat.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when a material is subjected to heat and changes it's shape, area and volume as a result of that heat. How much that material changes is dependent on it's coefficient of thermal expansion.

Different materials have different coefficients of thermal expansion (i.e. It is a material property and differs from one material to the next). It is important to understand how materials behave when heated, especially for engineering applications when a change in dimension might pose a problem or risk (eg. building large structures).

Ammonia contained in a piston-cylinder assembly, initially saturated vapor at 0o F, undergoes an isothermal process during which
Rudik [331]

ANSWERS:

-P_{2(a)} =15.6lbf/in^2\\-P_{2(b)} =30.146lbf/in^2\\ T_{2(a)} =0^oF\\T_{2(b)} =0^oF\\x_{2(b)} =49.87percent

Explanation:

Given:

Piston cylinder assembly which mean that the process is constant pressure process P=C.

<u>AMMONIA </u>

state(1)

saturated vapor x_{1} =1

The temperature T_{1} =0^0 F

Isothermal process  T=C

a)

-V_{2} =2V_{1} ( double)

b)

-V_{2} =.5V_{2} (reduced by half)

To find the final state by giving the quality in lbf/in we assume the friction is neglected and the system is in equilibrium.

state(1)

using PVT data for saturated ammonia

-P_{1} =30.416 lbf/in^2\\-v_{1} =v_{g} =9.11ft^3/lb

then the state exists in the supper heated region.

a) from standard data

-v_{1(a)} =2v_{1} =18.22ft^3/lb\\-T_{1} =0^oF

at\\P_{x} =14lbf/in^2\\-v_{x} =20.289 ft^3/kg

at\\P_{y} =16 lbf/in^2\\-v_{y} =17.701ft^3/kg

assume linear interpolation

\frac{P_{x}-P_{2(b)}  }{P_{x}- P_{y} } =\frac{v_{x}-v_{1(a)}  }{v_{x}-v_{y}  }

P_{1(b)}=P_{x} -(P_{x} -P_{y} )*\frac{v_{x}- v_{1(b)} }{v_{x}-v_{y}  }\\ \\P_{1(b)} =14-(14-16)*\frac{20.289-18.22}{20.289-17.701} =15.6lbf/in^2

b)

-v_{2(a)} =2v_{1} =4.555ft^3/lb\\v_{g}

from standard data

-v_{f} =0.02419ft^3/kg\\-v_{g} =9.11ft^3/kg\\v_{f}

then the state exist in the wet zone

-P_{s} =30.146lbf/in^2\\v_{2(a)} =v_{f} +x(v_{g} -v_{f} )

x=\frac{v_{2(a)-v_{f} } }{v_{g} -v_{f} } \\x=\frac{4.555-0.02419}{9.11-0.02419} =49.87%

Air at 400 kPa, 980 K enters a turbine operating at steady state and exits at 100 kPa, 670 K. Heat transfer from the turbine occ
shusha [124]

Answer:

A)W'/m = 311 KJ/kg

B)σ'_gen/m = 0.9113 KJ/kg.k

Explanation:

a).The energy rate balance equation in the control volume is given by the formula;

Q' - W' + m(h1 - h2) = 0

Dividing through by m, we have;

(Q'/m) - (W'/m) + (h1 - h2) = 0

Rearranging, we have;

W'/m = (Q'/m) + (h1 - h2)

Normally, this transforms to another equation;

W'/m = (Q'/m) + c_p(T1 - T2)

Where;

W'/m is the rate at which power is developed

Q'/m is the rate at which heat is flowing

c_p is specific heat at constant pressure which from tables at a temperature of 980k = 1.1 KJ/kg.k

T1 is initial temperature

T2 is exit temperature

We are given;

Q'/m = -30 kj/kg (negative because it leaves the turbine)

T1 = 980 k

T2 = 670 k

Plugging in the relevant values;

W'/m = -30 + 1.1(980 - 670)

W'/m = 311 KJ/kg

B) The Entropy produced from the entropy balance equation in a control volume is given by the formula;

(Q'/T_boundary) + m(s1 - s2) + σ'_gen = 0

Dividing through by m gives;

((Q'/m)/T_boundary) + (s1 - s2) + σ'_gen/m = 0

Rearranging, we have;

σ'_gen/m = -((Q'/m)/T_boundary) + (s2 - s1)

Under the conditions given in the question, this transforms normally to;

σ'_gen/m = -((Q'/m)/T_boundary) - c_p•In(T2/T1) - R•In(p2/p1)

σ'_gen/m is the rate of entropy production in kj/kg

We are given;

p2 = 100 kpa

p1 = 400 kpa

T_boundary = 315 K

For an ideal gas, R = 0.287 KJ/kg.K

Plugging in the relevant values including the ones initially written in answer a above, we have;

σ'_gen/m = -(-30/315) - 1.1(In(670/980)) - 0.287(In(100/400))

σ'_gen/m = 0.0952 + 0.4183 + 0.3979

σ'_gen/m = 0.9113 KJ/kg.k
