A masonry facade consisting of 3,800 square feet is to be constructed for a building. The total cost per worker hour is estimate

d to be $31.50, and the total estimated cost of the labor for this task is $10,500. Assuming 8-hour work days and a crew of six workers, how many days should be allowed to complete this task? What is the production rate that the crew must attain to keep the project on schedule and within the budget?

Exhaust gas from a furnace is used to preheat the combustion air supplied to the furnace burners. The gas, which has a flow rate
Monica [59]

Answer:

The total tube surface area in m² required to achieve an air outlet temperature of 850 K is 192.3 m²

Explanation:

Here we have the heat Q given as follows;

Q = 15 × 1075 × (1100 - t_{A2}) = 10 × 1075 × (850 - 300) = 5912500 J

∴ 1100 - t_{A2} = 1100/3

t_{A2}  = 733.33 K

\Delta \bar{t}_{a} =\frac{t_{A_{1}}+t_{A_{2}}}{2} - \frac{t_{B_{1}}+t_{B_{2}}}{2}

Where

\Delta \bar{t}_{a} = Arithmetic mean temperature difference

t_{A_{1} = Inlet temperature of the gas = 1100 K

t_{A_{2} = Outlet temperature of the gas = 733.33 K

t_{B_{1} =  Inlet temperature of the air = 300 K

t_{B_{2} = Outlet temperature of the air = 850 K

Hence, plugging in the values, we have;

\Delta \bar{t}_{a} =\frac{1100+733.33}{2} - \frac{300+850}{2} = 341\tfrac{2}{3} \, K = 341.67 \, K

Hence, from;

\dot{Q} = UA\Delta \bar{t}_{a}, we have

5912500  = 90 × A × 341.67

A = \frac{5912500  }{90 \times 341.67} = 192.3 \, m^2

Hence, the total tube surface area in m² required to achieve an air outlet temperature of 850 K = 192.3 m².

Two different fuels are being considered for a 2.5 MW (net output) heat engine which can operate between the highest temperature
sveta [45]

Answer:

If the heat engine operates for one hour:

a) the fuel cost at Carnot efficiency for fuel 1 is $409.09 while fuel 2 is $421.88.

b) the fuel cost at 40% of Carnot efficiency for fuel 1 is $1022.73 while fuel 2 is $1054.68.

In both cases the total cost of using fuel 1 is minor, therefore it is recommended to use this fuel over fuel 2. The final observation is that fuel 1 is cheaper.

Explanation:

The Carnot efficiency is obtained as:

\epsilon_{car}=1-\frac{T_c}{T_H}

Where T_c is the atmospheric temperature and T_H is the maximum burn temperature.

For the case (B), the efficiency we will use is:

\epsilon_{b}=0.4\epsilon_{car}

The work done by the engine can be calculated as:

W=\epsilon Q=\epsilon H_v\cdot m_{fuel} where Hv is the heat value.

If the average net power of the engine is work over time, considering a net power of 2.5MW for 1 hour (3600s), we can calculate the mass of fuel used in each case.

m=\frac{P\cdot t}{\epsilon H_v}

If we want to calculate the total fuel cost, we only have to multiply the fuel mass with the cost per kilogram.

TC=m\cdot c

What is the rated power output in ( kw) of a 8 pole motor designed to an IEC 180L motor frame ?<br>​
ra1l [238]

Answer:

P=11 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Number of poles= 8

I.E.C. 180L motor frame

From data book , for 8 poles motor at 50 Hz

Speed = 730 rpm

Power factor = 0.75

Efficiency at 100 % load= 89.3 %

Efficiency at 50 % load= 89.1 %

Output power = 11 kW

Therefore the rated output power of 8 poles motor will be 11 kW. Thus the answer will be 11 kW.

P=11 kW
