BE-40 What is a characteristic of a catamaran hull?

Engineering

Nat2105 [25]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<em>A stable ride</em>

Explanation:

A Catamaran hull is a form of sea craft invented by the Austronesian peoples, the invention of the Catamaran hull enabled these people to sail across the sea in their expansion to the islands of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Catamaran has multiple hulls, usually two parallel hulls of equal size. This geometric feature gives the craft an increased stability because,<em> it derives extra stability from its wide beam, in the place of a ballasted keel employed in a regular monohull sailboat. </em>A Catamaran hull will require four times the force needed to capsize it, when compared to an equivalent monohull.

A cylindrical tank is required to contain a gage pressure 560 kPa . The tank is to be made of A516 grade 60 steel with a maximum
adoni [48]

Answer:

5.6 mm

Explanation:

Given that:

A cylindrical tank is required to contain a:

Gage Pressure P = 560 kPa

Allowable normal stress \sigma = 150 MPa = 150000 Kpa.

The inner diameter of the tank = 3 m

In a closed cylinder  there exist both the circumferential stress and the longitudinal stress.

Circumferential stress \sigma = \dfrac{pd}{2t}

Making thickness t the subject; we have

t = \dfrac{pd}{2* \sigma}

t = \dfrac{560000*3}{2*150000000}

t = 0.0056 m

t = 5.6 mm

For longitudinal stress.

\sigma = \dfrac{pd}{4t}

t= \dfrac{pd}{4*\sigma }

t = \dfrac{560000*3}{4*150000000}

t = 0.0028  mm

t = 2.8 mm

From the above circumferential stress and longitudinal stress; the stress with the higher value will be considered ; which is circumferential stress and it's minimum value  with the maximum thickness = 5.6 mm

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

14.506°C

Explanation:

Given data :

flow rate of water been cooled = 0.011 m^3/s

inlet temp = 30°C + 273 = 303 k

cooling medium temperature = 6°C  + 273 = 279 k

flow rate of cooling medium = 0.02 m^3/s

Determine the outlet temperature

we can determine the outlet temperature by applying the relation below

Heat gained by cooling medium = Heat lost by water

= ( Mcp ( To - 6 )  =  Mcp ( 30 - To )

since the properties of water and the cooling medium ( water ) is the same

= 0.02 ( To - 6 ) = 0.011 ( 30 - To )

= 1.82 ( To - 6 ) = 30 - To

hence To ( outlet temperature ) = 14.506°C

Question 7.1: Two possible overhead valve combustion chambers are being considered – the first has two valves; the second has fo
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

1) The adoption of the second design we can see that the total valve perimeter is increased by 60.8%

2) Increase in flow are : 29%

3) Additional benefits in using 4 valves per cylinder:

a)For the purpose of controlling the combustion process, the inlet valves will give more flexibility

b) There is a larger valve throat areas for the flow of gas

Explanation:

1) Perimeter of the first possible overhead valve combustion chamber with two valves:

P₂ = πd = π × 23 = 72.26mm

Perimeter of the second possible overhead valve combustion chamber with four valves:

P₄ = π2d = π × 18.5 × 2 = 116.24 mm

If second design is adopted, percentage increase = ((P₄ - P₂)/P₂)×100

     = ((116.24 - 72.26)/72.26)×100 = 0.6086 ×100 = 60.86%

Therefore, the total valve perimeter is shown to have increased by 60.8%

2) Formula for flow Area (A) = P × L = πkd²

Area of the first possible overhead valve combustion chamber with two valves: A₂ = πkd² = πk(23)² = 1662k mm²

Area of the first possible overhead valve combustion chamber with four valves: A₄ = πkd² = 2πk(18.5)² = 2150k mm²

The percentage increase in flow area: ((A₄ - A₂)/A₄)×100 = ((2150 - 1662)/2150)×100 = 29%

3) The additional benefits of using are:

a) For the purpose of controlling the combustion process, the inlet valves will give more flexibility

b) There is a larger valve throat areas for the flow of gas
