thermodynamics A nuclear power plant based on the Rankine cycle operates with a boiling-water reactor to develop net cycle power

of 3 MW. Steam exits the reactor core at 100 bar, 620°C and expands through the turbine to the condenser pressure of 1 bar. Saturated liquid exits the condenser and is pumped to the reactor pressure of 100 bar. Isentropic efficiencies of the turbine and pump are 87% and 78%, respectively. Cooling water enters the condenser at 15°C with a mass flow rate of 114.79 kg/s. Determine: (a) the percent thermal efficiency. (b) the temperature of the cooling water exiting the condenser, in °C.

A hot brass plate is having its upper surface cooled by impinging jet of air at temperature of 15°C and convection heat transfer
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

809.98°C

Explanation:

STEP ONE: The first step to take in order to solve this particular Question or problem is to find or determine the Biot value.

Biot value = (heat transfer coefficient × length) ÷ thermal conductivity.

Biot value = (220 × 0.1)÷ 110 = 0.2.

Biot value = 0.2.

STEP TWO: Determine the Fourier number. Since the Biot value is greater than 0.1. Tis can be done by making use of the formula below;

Fourier number = thermal diffusivity × time ÷ (length)^2.

Fourier number = (3 × 60 × 33.9 × 10^-6)/( 0.1)^2 = 0.6102.

STEP THREE: This is the last step for the question, here we will be calculating the temperature of the center plane of the brass plate after 3 minutes.

Thus, the temperature of the center plane of the brass plane after 3 minutes = (1.00705) (0.89199) (900- 15) + 15.

= > the temperature of the center plane of the brass plane after 3 minutes = 809.98°C.

Whose job is it to ensure that a group stays focused and on schedule?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

the leader or organizer. you should have assigned jobs, so one of them should be in charge. if you did not assign jobs, assign them now, and one person has a job, and they must be held accountable. if they cannot do their job, someone might have to take over, but then you tell your prof. that they could not do their part, so hopefully you will get the credit you deserve and they will not.

(Specific weight) A 1-ft-diameter cylindrical tank that is 5 ft long weighs 125 lb and is filled with a liquid having a specific
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The answer to the question is 514.17 lbf

Explanation:

Volume of cylindrical tank = πr²h = 3.92699 ft³

Weight of tank = 125 lb

Specific weight of content = 66.4 lb/ft³

Mass of content =  66.4×3.92699 = 260.752 lb

Total mass = 260.752 + 125 = 385.75 lb = 174.97 kg

=Weight = mass * acceleration = 174.97 *9.81 = 1716.497 N

To have an acceleration of 10.7 ft/s² = 3.261 m/s²

we have F = m*a = 174.97*(9.81+3.261) = 2287.15 N = 514.17 lbf
