An air-standard Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 16 and a cutoff ratio of 2. At the beginning of the compression process,

air is at 105 kPa and 27°C. Assume constant specific heats. The properties of air at room temperature are cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K, cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K, R = 0.287 kJ/kg·K, and k = 1.4.

Answer:

a) T_3 = 1724.8 K

b) n_th = 56.3 %

c) MEP = 746.8 KPa      

Explanation:

Given:

- Pressure at state 1 P_1 = 105 KPa

- Temperature at state 1 T_1 = 300 K

- Compression ratio r = 16

- Cutoff ratio n = 2

-cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K,

-cv = 0.718 kJ/kg·K,

-R = 0.287 kJ/kg·K,

-k = 1.4.

Find:

- The temperature at the start of Heat addition process

- Thermal Efficiency n_th

- Mean Effective Pressure

Solution:

Process 1 - 2 : Isentropic compression

- Using the Temperature at state 1, and air property tables we have:

 T_1 = 300 K      --------> u_1 = 214.07 KJ/kg , v_r1 = 621.2

- Using isentropic compression ratio:

                                v_1*v_r2 = v_2*v_r1

                                v_r2 = ( v_2 / v_1 ) * v_r1

                                v_r2 = (1 / r) * v_r1 = (1 / 16) * 621.2

                                v_r2 = 38.825

- Evaluating state 2 using air property tables:

v_r2 = 38.825   -------------> T_2 = 862.4 K , h_2 = 890.9 KJ/kg

Process 2 - 3 : Constant pressure Heat Addition ( P_2 = P_3 )

- Using ideal gas relation as follows:

                                  P_3*v_3 / T_3 = P_2*v_2 / T_2

                                   T_3 = ( v_3 / v_2 ) * T_2 = n * T_2

                                   T_3 = 2*T_2 = 2*862.4

                                    T_3 = 1724.8 K

- Evaluating state 3 using air property tables:

T_3 = 1724.8 K   -------------> v_r3 = 4.546 K , h_3 = 1910.6 KJ/kg

- Evaluate the amount of heat added q_in:

                                     q_in = h_3 - h_2

                                     q_in = 1910.6 - 890.9

                                      q_in = 1019.7 KJ/kg

Process 3 - 4 : Isentropic expansion

- Using isentropic compression ratio:

                                v_3*v_r4 = v_4*v_r3

                                v_r4 = ( v_4 / v_3 ) * v_r3

                                v_r4 = (r/2) * v_r3 = (16 / 2) * 4.546

                                v_r4 = 36.37

- Evaluating state 4 using air property tables:

v_r4 = 36.37   ------------->  u_4 = 659.7 KJ/kg

Process 4 - 1 : Constant Volume Heat Rejection ( v_4 = v_1 )

- Evaluate the amount of heat rejected q_out:

                                   q_out = u_4 - u_1

                                   q_out = 659.7 - 214.07

                                   q_out = 445.63 KJ/kg

- Evaluate the thermal efficiency n_th:

                                   n_th = 1 - q_out / q_in

                                   n_th = 1 - 445.63/1019.7

                                   n_th = 56.3 %

- Apply energy balance for entire system or cycle:

                              w_net, out = q_in - q_out

                              w_net, out = 1019.7 - 445.63

                              w_net, out = 574.07 KJ/kg

- Compute the maximum volume @ state 1 or 4, v_1 or v_4. Use ideal gas law:

                               v_1 = R*T_1 / P_1

                               v_1 = 0.287*300 / 105

                               v_1 = 0.82 m^3 / kg = v_max

- Compute v_min @state 2 using compression ratio:

                               v_min = v_2 = v_max / r

                               v_min = 0.82 / 16

                               v_min = 0.05125 m^3 / kg

- The mean effective pressure can now be calculated from definition:

                               MEP = w_net,out / ( v_1 - v_2)

                               MEP = 574.07 / ( 0.82 - 0.05125)      

                               MEP = 746.8 KPa

A generator that produces 40 kilowatts uses twice as much fuel in an hour as a generator that produces 20 kilowatts. Explain why
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

In terms of energy conversion/transformation the generator that produces 40 kilowatts of power will consume twice as much fuel than a generator that produces 20 watts because the more electrical power produced by an electrical generator, the more fuel is consumed. The amount of electrical energy produced is directly proportional to the fuel consumed.  

Explanation:

Energy transformation is the conversion of energy from one form to another. Their are various forms of energy namely kinetic energy, electric energy, mechanical energy , chemical energy , solar energy, heat energy , nuclear energy. These energy can be transformed from one form to another . Example our body convert chemical energy through food we eat to mechanical energy.  

The generator transforms  mechanical energy into electrical energy . The kilowatts tells you the amount of power the generator produces .The energy is measured in kilowatts per hour which is the power used over a period of time.

In terms of energy conversion/transformation the generator that produces 40 kilowatts of power will consume twice as much fuel than a generator that produces 20 watts because the more electrical power produced by an electrical generator, the more fuel is consumed. The amount of electrical energy produced is directly proportional to the fuel consumed.   So far the generator conversion efficiency are equal  for both generators the generator with the higher power generation will consume more fuel per hour.

Answer: parabola

Explanation:

•Parabolic Trajectory:

In conclusion, projectiles travel with a parabolic trajectory due to the fact that the downward force of gravity accelerates them downward from their otherwise straight-line, gravity-free trajectory.

When designing a dashboard, how can data analysts ensure that charts and graphs are most effective? Select all that apply.
Burka [1]

When designing a dashboard, how can data analysts ensure that charts and graphs are most effective by Place them in a balanced layout

<h3>What is the work of a data analyst?</h3>
  • In order to understand the customers of a company better and find ways to use the data to address issues, data analysts evaluate the available information.
  • Along with sharing it with other stakeholders, they also tell the company's management.
  • Data analytics is described as a stressful profession by many data experts. In light of this, it is imperative that everyone considering a career in data analytics and science reconsiders their plans and carefully considers their options.
  • In contrast to popular belief, data analysis is a process that combines both "hard" and "soft" skills.

Why are scientists and engineers looking for ways to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels? Help
Alchen [17]
Fossil fuels when burned let out toxins and pollution in the air. Because of that scientists and engineers work together to find ways to not be so dependent on fossil fuels so we are not polluting our air.
