Consider two different flows over geometrically similar airfoil shapes, one airfoil being twice the size of the other. The flow

over the smaller airfoil has freestream properties given by T[infinity] = 200 K, rho[infinity] = 1.23 kg/m3 , and V[infinity] = 100 m/s. The flow over the larger airfoil is described by T[infinity] = 800 K, rho[infinity] = 1.739 kg/m3, and V[infinity] = 200 m/s. Assume that both μ and a are proportional to T1/2. Are the two flows dynamically similar?

Answer

No;

The two flows are not dynamically similar

Explanation: Given

T∞,1 = 800k

V∞,1 = 200m/s

p∞,1 = 1.739kg/m³

T∞,2 = 200k

V∞,2 = 100m/s

p∞,2 = 1.23kg/m³

Size1 = 2 * Size2 (L1 = 2L2) Assumptions Made

α ∝√T

μ∝√T Two (2) conditions must be met if the two flows are to be considered similar.

Condition 1: Similar Parameters must be the same for both flows

Condition 2: The bodies and boundaries must be genetically true. Condition 2 is true

Checking for the first condition...

Well need to calculate Reynold's Number for both flows

And Check if they have the same Reynold's Number Using the following formula

Re = pVl/μ

Re1 = p1V1l1/μ1 Re2 = p2V2l2/μ2 Re1/Re2 = p1V1l1/μ1 ÷ p2V2l2/μ2

Re1/Re2 = p1V1l1/μ1 * μ2/p2V2l2

Re1/Re2 = p1V1l1μ2/p2V2l2μ1

Re1/Re2 = p1V1l1√T2 / p1V1l1√T1

Re1/Re2 = (1.739 * 200 * 2L2 * √200) / (1.23 * 100 * L2 * √800)

Re1/Re2 = 9837.2/3479

Re1/Re2 = 2,828/1

Re1:Re2 = 2.828:1

Re1 ≠ Re2,

So condition 1 is not satisfied Since one of tbe conditions is not true, the two flows are not dynamically similar

A 4KJ of energy is supplied to a machine used for lifting a mass. The force required is 800N. If the machine has an efficiency o

navik [9.2K]

The height at which the mass will be lifted is; 3 meters

<h3>How to utilize efficiency of a machine?</h3>

Formula for efficiency is;

η = useful output energy/input energy

We are given

η = 60% = 0.6

Input energy = 4 KJ = 4000 J

Thus;

0.6 = useful output energy/4000

useful output energy = 0.6 * 4000

useful output energy = 2400 J

Work done in lifting mass(useful output energy) = force * distance moved

Useful output energy = 800 * h

where h is height to lift mass

Thus;

800h = 2400

h = 2400/800

h = 3 meters

A counter-flow double pipe heat exchanger is heat heat water from 20 degrees Celsius to 80 degrees Celsius at the rate of 1.2 kg

lakkis [162]

Answer:

$L=107.6m$

Explanation:

Cold water in: $m_{c}=1.2kg/s, C_{c}=4.18kJ/kg\°C, T_{c,in}=20\°C, T_{c,out}=80\°C$

Hot water in: $m_{h}=2kg/s, C_{h}=4.18kJ/kg\°C, T_{h,in}=160\°C, T_{h,out}=?\°C$

$D=1.5cm=0.015m, U=649W/m^{2}K, LMTD=?\°C, A_{s}=?m^{2},L=?m$

Step 1: Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger

$Q=m_{c}C_{c}(T_{c,out}-T_{c,in})$

$Q=1.2*4.18*(80-20)$

$Q=1.2*4.18*(80-20)$

$Q=300.96kW$

Step 2: Determine outlet temperature of hot water

$Q=m_{h}C_{h}(T_{h,in}-T_{h,out})$

$300.96=2*4.18*(160-T_{h,out})$

$T_{h,out}=124\°C$

Step 3: Determine the Logarithmic Mean Temperature Difference (LMTD)

$dT_{1}=T_{h,in}-T_{c,out}$

$dT_{1}=160-80$

$dT_{1}=80\°C$

$dT_{2}=T_{h,out}-T_{c,in}$

$dT_{2}=124-20$

$dT_{2}=104\°C$

$LMTD = \frac{dT_{2}-dT_{1}}{ln(\frac{dT_{2}}{dT_{1}})}$

$LMTD = \frac{104-80}{ln(\frac{104}{80})}$

$LMTD = \frac{24}{ln(1.3)}$

$LMTD = 91.48\°C$

Step 4: Determine required surface area of heat exchanger

$Q=UA_{s}LMTD$

$300.96*10^{3}=649*A_{s}*91.48$

$A_{s}=5.07m^{2}$

Step 5: Determine length of heat exchanger

$A_{s}=piDL$

$5.07=pi*0.015*L$

$L=107.57m$
