A simple ideal Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates between the pressure limits of 4 MPa in the boiler and 20

kPa in the condenser and a turbine inlet temperature of 700°C. The boiler is sized to provide a steam flow of 50 kg/s. Determine the power produced by the turbine and consumed by the pump.

Answer:

a) 69,630KW

b) 203 KW

Explanation:

The data obtained from Tables A-4, A-5 and A-6 is as follows:

h_{1} = h_{f,@20KPa} = 251.42 KJ/kg\\v_{1} = v_{f,@20KPa} = 0.001017 KJ/kgK\\\\w_{p,in} = v_{1} * (P_{2} - P_{1})\\w_{p,in} = (0.001017)*(4000-20)\\\\w_{p,in} = 4.05 KJ/kg\\\\h_{2} = h_{1} - w_{p,in} \\h_{2} = 251.42 + 4.05\\\\h_{2}  =  255.47KJ/kg\\\\P_{3} = 4000KPa\\T_{3} = 700 C\\s_{3} = 7.6214 KJ/kgK\\\\h_{3} = 3906.3 KJ/kg\\\\P_{4} = 20 KPa\\s_{3} = s_{4} = 7.6214KJ/kgK\\s_{f} = 0.8320 KJ/kgK\\s_{fg} = 7.0752 KJ/kgK\\\\

x_{4} = \frac{s_{4} - s_{f} }{s_{fg} }  \\\\x_{4} = \frac{7.6214-0.8320}{7.0752} = 0.9596\\\\h_{f} = 251.42KJ/kg \\h_{fg} = 2357.5KJ/kg \\\\h_{4} = h_{f} + x_{4}*h_{fg} = 251.42 + 0.9596*2357.5 = 2513.7KJ/kg\\\\

The power produced and consumed by turbine and pump respectively are:

W_{T,out} = flow(m) *(h_{3} - h_{4}) \\W_{T,out} = 50 *(3906.3-2513.7)\\\\W_{T,out} = 69,630 KW\\\\W_{p,in} = flow(m) *w_{p,in} = 50*4.05 = 203 KW

A hypothetical metal alloy has a grain diameter of 2.4 × 10−2 mm. After a heat treatment at 575°C for 500 min, the grain diamete
Alex

Answer:

The time required is 10.078 hours or 605 min

Explanation:

The formula to apply here is ;

K=(d²-d²₀ )/t

where t is time in hours

d is grain diameter to be achieved after heating in mm

d₀ is the grain diameter before heating in mm

Given

d=5.5 × 10^-2 mm

d₀=2.4 × 10^-2 mm

t₁= 500 min = 500/60 =25/3 hrs

t₂=?

n=2.2

First find K

K=(d²-d²₀ )/t₁

K={ (5.1 × 10^-2 mm)²-(2.4 × 10−2 mm)² }/ 25/3

K=(0.051²-0.024²) ÷25/2

K=0.000243 mm²/h

Re-arrange equation for K ,to get the equation for d as;

d=√(d₀²+ Kt)  where now t=t₂

d=\sqrt{0.024^2+0.000243*t} \\\\0.055=\sqrt{0.024^2+0.000243t} \\\\0.055^2=0.024^2+0.000243t\\\\0.055^2-0.024^2=0.000243t\\\\0.002449=0.000243t\\\\0.002449/0.000243=t\\\\10.078=t\\\\t=605min

A train consists of a 50 Mg engine and three cars, each having a mass of 30 Mg . If it takes 75 s for the train to increase its
ohaa [14]

Answer:

T = 15 kN

F = 23.33 kN

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

We apply the impulse momentum principle on the total system,

mv₁ + ∑\int\limits^{t2}_{t1} {Fx} \, dt = mv₂

we substitute

[50 + 3(30)]×10³ × 0 + FΔt = [50 + 3(30)]×10³ ×  ( 45 × 1000 / 3600 )  

F( 75 - 0 ) =  1.75 × 10⁶

The resultant frictional tractive force F is will then be;

F =  1.75 × 10⁶ / 75

F = 23333.33 N

F = 23.33 kN

Applying the impulse momentum principle on the three cars;

mv₁ + ∑\int\limits^{t2}_{t1} {Fx} \, dt = mv₂

[3(30)]×10³ × 0 + FΔt = [3(30)]×10³ ×  ( 45 × 1000 / 3600 )  

F(75-0) = 1.125 × 10⁶

The force T developed is then;

T =  1.125 × 10⁶ / 75

T = 15000 N

T = 15 kN
