<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 14.72 kg

(b) 414 kJ

(c) 414 kJ

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) To get the mass of the air, the ideal gas equation will be used and is given as follows;

PV = mRT            ----------------(i)

Where;

P = pressure of the air = 3 bar = 3 x 10⁵Pa

V = volume of the air = 2m³

m = mass of air

R = specific gas constant of air = 287.05 \frac{J}{kgK}

T = temperature of the air = 142K

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

3 x 10⁵ x 2 = m x 287.05 x 142

6 x 10⁵ = m x 40761.1

600000 = 40761.1m

m = \frac{600000}{40761.1}

m = 14.72kg

Therefore, the mass of the air is 14.72 kg

(b) According to the question, the relationship between the pressure and the volume is given by

PV = k         (where k = constant)

This implies that;

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ = ... = k           -------------------(ii)

Where;

P₁ = initial pressure of air = 3 bar = 3 x 10⁵Pa

V₁ = initial volume of air = 2m³

P₂ = final pressure of air = 1.5 bar = 1.5 x 10⁵Pa

V₂ = final volume of air

<em>Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;</em>

3 x 10⁵ x 2 = 1.5 x 10⁵ x V₂

6 x 10⁵ = 1.5 x 10⁵V₂

6 = 1.5V₂

V₂ = \frac{6}{1.5}

V₂ = 4m³

Also, from equation (ii)

P₁V₁ = k               --------------(iii)

Substitute the values of P₁ and V₁ into equation (iii) as follows;

3 x 10⁵ x 2 = k

k = 6 x 10⁵ m³Pa

Recall that PV = k

This implies that;

P = \frac{k}{V}            ------------(iv)

Also, remember, in thermodynamics the work done, W, when a gas expands or compresses in volume is given by the following;

W = \int\limits^{V_2}_{V_1} {P} \, dV

<em>Substitute the value of P in equation (iv) into the above equation as follows;</em>

W = \int\limits^{V_2}_{V_1} {\frac{k}{V} } \, dV

W = k \int\limits^{V_2}_{V_1} {\frac{1}{V} } \, dV

W = k \int\limits^{V_2}_{V_1} {V^{-1} } \, dV

<em>Integrating gives;</em>

W = k ln [V]                -----------------(v)

<em>Putting the values of the integral limits V₁ and V₂ </em>into equation (v)

W = k ln [V₂ - V₁]

<em>Substitute the values of k, V₂ and V₁ into equation above as follows;</em>

W = 6 x 10⁵ ln [4 - 2]

W = 6 x 10⁵ ln [2]

W = 6 x 10⁵ (0.69)

W = 4.14 x 10⁵

W = 414 kJ

Therefore, the work done is 414 kJ

(c) The heat transfer Q, the work done, W, and the change in internal energy, ΔU, in a thermodynamic system are related by the following relation;

Q - W = ΔU                  ----------(vi)

If the values of P₂, V₂ are substituted into equation (i) to find the value of T₂, it will be found that T₁ and T₂ are the same. i.e T₁ = T₂ = 142K. Therefore, the change in internal energy, ΔU = 0.

Equation (vi) the becomes

Q - W = 0

Q = W            [Substitute the value of W = 414 kJ]

Q = 414 kJ

Therefore, the heat transfer is 414 kJ

If a vacuum gau ge reads 9.62 psi, it means that: a. the very highest column of mercury it could support would be 19.58 inches.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:All of the above

Explanation:

9.62 psi means 497.49 mm of Hg pressure

for (a)19.58 inches is equals to 497.49 mm of Hg

(b)atmospheric pressure is 14.69 psi

vaccum gauge is 9.62psi

absolute pressure is=14.69-9.62=5.07

(c)vaccum means air is sucked and there is negative pressure so it tells about below atmospheric pressure.

thus all are correct

Calculate the volume of a hydraulic accumulator capable of delivering 5 liters of oil between 180 and 80 bar, using as a preload
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1) V_o = 10 liters

2) V_o = 12.26 liters

Explanation:

For isothermal process n =1

V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{(\frac{p_o}{p_1})^{1/n} -(\frac{p_o}{p_2})^{1/n}}

V_o  = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1}}

V_o = 10 liters

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration  for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.03

actual \ volume = c1\times 10 = 10.3 liters

b) for adiabatic process

n =1.4

volume of hydraulic accumulator is given as

V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{[\frac{p_o}{p_1}]^{1/n} -[\frac{p_o}{p_2}]^{1/n}}

V_o  = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1.4} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1.4}}

V_o = 12.26 liters

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration  for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.15

actual \volume = c1\times 10 = 11.5 liters

Consider a 2-shell-passes and 8-tube-passes shell-and-tube heat exchanger. What is the primary reason for using many tube passes
Maru [420]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The shell and tube heat exchanger are designated by the order of tube and shell passes.

- A single tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, the fluid exits.

- A multiple tube pass: The fluid enters from inlet, exchange of heat, U bend of the fluid, exchange of heat, .... ( nth order of pass ), and then exits.

- By increasing the number of passes we have increased the "retention time" of a specific volume of tube fluid; hence, providing sufficient time for the fluid to exchange heat with the shell fluid.

- By making more U-turns we are allowing greater length for the fluid flow to develop with " constriction and turns " into turbulence. This turbulence usually at the final passes allows mixing of fluid and increases the heat transfer coefficient by:

                                U ∝ v^( 0.8 )    .... ( turbulence )

- The higher the velocity of the fluids the greater the heat transfer coefficient. The increase in the heat transfer coefficient will allow less heat energy carried by either of the fluids to be wasted ; hence, reduced losses.

Thereby, increases the thermal efficiency of the heat exchanger ( higher NTU units ).

Five batch jobs A through E arrive at a computer center in the order A to E at almost the same time. They have estimated running
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Turnaround time is the amount of time that elapses between the job arriving and completing. We assume that all jobs arrive at time 0, the turnaround time will simply be the time that they complete.

Round Robin:

we assume that the time quantum of the scheduler is 1 second.The table below gives a break down of which jobs will be processed during each time quantum. A asterisk(*) indicates that the job completes during that quantum.
