A cylindrical container closed of both end has a radius of 7cm and height of 6cm A.)find the total surface area of the container

Natalka [10]

Given:

A cylindrical container closed of both end has a radius of 7cm and height of 6cm.

Explanation:

A.) Find the total surface area of the container.

A = 2πrh + 2πr²
A = 2(3.14)(7)(6) + 2(3.14)(7 × 7)
A = 263.76 + 307.72
A = 571.48

B.) Find the volume of the container.

V = πr²h
V = (3.14)(7×7)(6)
V = 923.16

A body which has surface area 5cm² and temperature of 727°C radiates 300J of energy in one minute. Calculate it's emissivity giv

cestrela7 [59]

<h2>Answer: 0.17</h2>

Explanation:

The Stefan-Boltzmann law establishes that a black body (an ideal body that absorbs or emits all the radiation that incides on it) "emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power proportional to the fourth power of its temperature":

$P=\sigma A T^{4}$ (1)

Where:

$P=300J/min=5J/s=5W$ is the energy radiated by a blackbody radiator per second, per unit area (in Watts). Knowing $1W=\frac{1Joule}{second}=1\frac{J}{s}$

$\sigma=5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}}$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.

$A=5cm^{2}=0.0005m^{2}$ is the Surface area of the body

$T=727\°C=1000.15K$ is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin.

However, there is no ideal black body (ideal radiator) although the radiation of stars like our Sun is quite close. So, in the case of this body, we will use the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiator bodies:

$P=\sigma A \epsilon T^{4}$ (2)

Where $\epsilon$ is the body's emissivity

(the value we want to find)

Isolating $\epsilon$ from (2):

$\epsilon=\frac{P}{\sigma A T^{4}}$ (3)

Solving:

$\epsilon=\frac{5W}{(5.6703(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}})(0.0005m^{2})(1000.15K)^{4}}$ (4)

Finally:

$\epsilon=0.17$ (5) This is the body's emissivity

Air enters a turbine operating at steady state with a pressure of 75 Ibf/in.^2, a temperature of 800º R and velocity of 400 ft/s

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

(a) W/m = 49.334 Btu/lb

(b) $\frac{E_{d} }{m}$ = 22.12 Btu/lb

Explanation:

For the given problem, it can be assumed that the system is operating at steady state and the effects of potential energy can be neglected.

(a) Using the thermodynamic table for air.

At the temperature ( $T_{1}$ )of 800 ºR and pressure ( $P_{1}$ ) of 75 Ibf/in.^2, we can deduce that:

Specific enthalpy ( $h_{1}$ ) = 191.81 BTu/lb

Specific entropy ( $s_{1}$ ) = 0.6956 Btu/(lb.ºR)

At the temperature ( $T_{2}$ )of 600 ºR and pressure ( $P_{2}$ ) of 15 Ibf/in.^2, we can deduce that:

Specific enthalpy ( $h_{2}$ ) = 143.47 BTu/lb

Specific entropy ( $s_{2}$ ) = 0.6261 Btu/(lb.ºR)

The work done can be calculated using energy rate equation:

$\frac{W}{m} = \frac{Q}{m} + (h_{1} - h_{2}) + \frac{V_{1}^{2} - V_{2}^{2}}{2}$

Q/m = heat transfer = -2 Btu/lb

$V_{1}$ = 400 ft/s

$V_{2}$ = 100 ft/s

$\frac{W}{m} = -2 + (191.81 - 143.47) + \frac{400^{2} - 100^{2}}{2}*[tex]\frac{1}{2*32.2*778}$ [/tex] = -2 + 48.34 + 29.938 = 49.334 Btu/lb

(b) To calculate the exergy destruction, we will use the equation for exergy rate:

$\frac{E_{d} }{m} = [1-\frac{T_{o} }{T_{b} }](\frac{Q}{m}) - \frac{W}{m} + [(h_{1} - h_{2}) -T_{o}(s_{1} - s_{2}) + \frac{V^{2} _{1} - V_{2} ^{2}}{2}]$
