Answer:
Only Technician B is right.
Explanation:
The cylindrical braking system for a car works through the mode of pressure transmission, that is, the pressure applied to the brake pedals, is transmitted to the brake pad through the cylindrical piston.
Pressure applied on the pedal, P(pedal) = P(pad)
And the Pressure is the applied force/area for either pad or pedal. That is, P(pad) = Force(pad)/A(pad) & P(pedal) = F(pedal)/A(pedal)
If the area of piston increases, A(pad) increases and the P(pad) drops, Meaning, the pressure transmitted to the pad reduces. And for most cars, there's a pressure limit for the braking system to work.
If the A(pad) increases, P(pad) decreases and the braking force applied has to increase, to counter balance the dropping pressure and raise it.
This whole setup does not depend on the length of the braking lines; it only depends on the applied force and cross sectional Area (size) of the piston.
Answer:
576.21kJ
Explanation:
#We know that:
The balance mass 
so, 

#Also, given the properties of water as;

#We assume constant properties for the steam at average temperatures:
#Replace known values in the equation above;
#Using the mass and energy balance relations;

#We have
: we replace the known values in the equation as;

#Hence,the amount of heat transferred when the steam temperature reaches 500°C is 576.21kJ
Answer:
1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW
2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW
Explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
P₁ = 8 MPa
T₁ = 500°C
From which we have;
s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)
h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg
P₂ = 2 MPa
T₂ = 350°C
From which we have;
s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)
h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg
P₃ = 2 MPa
T₃ = 500°C
From which we have;
s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)
h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg
P₄ = 30 KPa
T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)
From which we have;
h₄ =
+ x₄×
= 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg
s₄ =
+ x₄×
= 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)
The exergy of destruction,
, is given as follows;
= T₀ ×
= T₀ ×
× (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)
= T₀ ×
×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)
∴
= 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138 - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW
The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW
2) The reversible power output,
=
+
≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW
The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.
Answer:
a) Tբ = 151.8°C
b) ΔV = - 0.194 m³
c) The T-V diagram is sketched in the image attached.
Explanation:
Using steam tables,
At the given pressure of 0.5 MPa, the saturation temperature is the final temperature.
Right from the steam tables (A-5) with a little interpolation, Tբ = 151.793°C
b) The volume change
Using data from A-5 and A-6 of the steam tables,
The volume change will be calculated from the mass (0.58 kg), the initial specific volume (αᵢ) and the final specific volume
(αբ) (which is calculated from the final quality and the consituents of the specific volumes).
ΔV = m(αբ - αᵢ)
αբ = αₗ + q(αₗᵥ) = αₗ + q (αᵥ - αₗ)
q = 0.5, αₗ = 0.00109 m³/kg, αᵥ = 0.3748 m³/kg
αբ = 0.00109 + 0.5(0.3748 - 0.00109)
αբ = 0.187945 m³/kg
αᵢ = 0.5226 m³/kg
ΔV = 0.58 (0.187945 - 0.5226) = - 0.194 m³
c) The T-V diagram is sketched in the image attached
