Three parts of a fluid power system and the roles played by each to make the device work.

Explanation:

1.Fluid power is subdivided into hydraulics using a liquid such as mineral oil or water, and pneumatics using a gas such as air or other gases.

2.Fluid power systems perform work by a pressurized fluid bearing directly on a piston in a cylinder or in a fluid motor.

Hydraulics Pumps

Dynamic (non positive displacement) Pumps

This type is generally used for low-pressure, high volume flow applications. Since they are not capable of withstanding high pressures, there is little use in the fluid power field. Their maximum pressure is limited to 250-300 psi. This type of pump is primarily used for transporting fluids from one location to another. Centrifugal and axial flow propeller pumps are the two most common types of dynamic pumps.

Positive Displacement Pumps

This type is universally used for fluid power systems. With this pump, a fixed amount of fluid is ejected into the hydraulic system per revolution of pump shaft rotation. These pumps are capable of overcoming the pressure resulting from the mechanical loads on the system as well as the resistance to flow due to friction. These two features are highly desirable in fluid power pumps. These pumps also have the following advantages over non positive displacement pumps:
High-pressure capability (up to 12,000 psi)

Small compact size

high volumetric efficiency

small changes in efficiency throughout the design pressure range

The first thing you should do is develop a ____________________ to determine what vehicle you can afford.

swat32

The first thing you should do is develop a <u>budget</u> to determine what vehicle you can afford.

<h3>What is an automobile?</h3>

An automobile is also referred to as a vehicle, car or motorcar and it can be defined as a four-wheeled vehicle that is designed and developed to be propelled by an internal-combustion (gasoline) engine, especially for the purpose of transportation from one location to another.

<h3>What is a budget?</h3>

A budget can be defined as a financial plan that is typically used for the estimation of revenue and expenditures of an individual, business organization or government for a specified period of time, often one year.

In this context, we can reasonably infer and logically deduce that the first thing anyone should do is to develop a <u>budget</u> in order to determine what vehicle they can afford.

A direct contact heat exchanger (where the fluid mixes completely) has three inlets and one outlet. The mass flow rates of the i

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Enthalpy at outlet=284.44 KJ

Explanation:

$m_1=1 Kg/s,m_2=1.5 Kg/s,m_3=22 Kg/s$

$h_1=100 KJ/Kg,h_2=120 KJ/Kg,h_3=500 KJ/Kg$

We need to Find enthalpy of outlet.

Lets take the outlet mass m and outlet enthalpy h.

So from mass conservation

$m_1+m_2+m_3=m$

m=1+1.5+2 Kg/s

m=4.5 Kg/s

Now from energy conservation

$m_1h_1+m_2h_2+m_3h_3=mh$

By putting the values

$1\times 100+1.5\times 120+2\times 500=4.5\times h$

So h=284.44 KJ

A shunt regulator utilizing a zener diode with an incremental resistance of 8 ohm is fed through an 82-Ohm resistor. If the raw

spayn [35]

Answer:

$\triangle V_0=0.08V$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Incremental resistance $R=8ohms$

Resistor Feed $R_f=82ohms$

Supply Change $\triangle V=1$

Generally the equation for voltage rate of change is mathematically given by

$\frac{dV_0}{dV}=\frca{R}{R_1r_3}$

Therefore

$\triangle V_0=\triangle V*\frac{R}{R_fR}$

$\triangle V_0=1*\frac{8}{8*82}$

$\triangle V_0=0.08V$

A Pitot-static probe is used to measure the speed of an aircraft flying at 3000 m. If the differential pressure reading is 3200

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Speed of aircraft ; (V_1) = 83.9 m/s

Explanation:

The height at which aircraft is flying = 3000 m

The differential pressure = 3200 N/m²

From the table i attached, the density of air at 3000 m altitude is; ρ = 0.909 kg/m3

Now, we will solve this question under the assumption that the air flow is steady, incompressible and irrotational with negligible frictional and wind effects.

Thus, let's apply the Bernoulli equation :

P1/ρg + (V_1)²/2g + z1 = P2/ρg + (V_2)²/2g + z2

Now, neglecting head difference due to high altitude i.e ( z1=z2 ) and V2 =0 at stagnation point.

We'll obtain ;

P1/ρg + (V_1)²/2g = P2/ρg

Let's make V_1 the subject;

(V_1)² = 2(P1 - P2)/ρ

(V_1) = √(2(P1 - P2)/ρ)

P1 - P2 is the differential pressure and has a value of 3200 N/m² from the question

Thus,

(V_1) = √(2 x 3200)/0.909)

(V_1) = 83.9 m/s
