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

If the rotational speed of a pump motor is reduced by 35%, what is the effect on the pump performance in terms of capacity, head
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

- the capacity of the pump reduces by 35%.

- the head gets reduced by 57%.

the power consumption by the pump is reduced by 72%

Explanation:

the pump capacity is related to the speed as speed is reduces by 35%

so new speed is (100 - 35) = 65% of orginal speed

speed Q ∝ N ⇒ Q1/Q2 = N1/N2

Q2 = (N2/N1)Q1    

Q2 = (65/100)Q1

which means that the capacity of the pump is also reduces by 35%.

the head in a pump is related by

H ∝ N² ⇒ H1/H2 = N1²/N2²

H2 = (N2N1)²H1

H2 = (65/100)²H1 = 0.4225H1

so the head gets reduced by 1 - 0.4225 = 0.5775 which is 57%.

Now The power requirement of a pump is related as

P ∝ N³ ⇒ P1/P2 = N1³/N2³

P2 = (N2/N1)³P1

H2 = (65/100)²P1 = 0.274P1

So the reduction in power is 1 - 0.274 = 0.725 which is 72%

Therefore for a reduction of 35% of speed there is a reduction of 72% of the power consumption by the pump.

A heat engine receives heat from a heat source at 1453 C and has a thermal efficiency of 43 percent. The heat engine does maximu
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

a) 1253 kJ

b) 714 kJ

c) 946 C

Explanation:

The thermal efficiency is given by this equation

η = L/Q1

Where

η: thermal efficiency

L: useful work

Q1: heat taken from the heat source

Rearranging:

Q1 = L/η

Replacing

Q1 = 539 / 0.43 = 1253 kJ

The first law of thermodynamics states that:

Q = L + ΔU

For a machine working in cycles ΔU is zero between homologous parts of the cycle.

Also we must remember that we count heat entering the system as positiv and heat leaving as negative.

We split the heat on the part that enters and the part that leaves.

Q1 + Q2 = L + 0

Q2 = L - Q1

Q2 = 539 - 1253 = -714 kJ

TO calculate a temperature for the heat sink we must consider this cycle as a Carnot cycle. Then we can use the thermal efficiency equation for the Carnot cycle, this one uses temperatures:

η = 1 - T2/T1

T2/T1 = 1 - η

T2 = (1 - η) * T1

The temperatures must be given in absolute scale (1453 C = 1180 K)

T2 = (1 - 0.43) * 1180 = 673 K

673 K = 946 C

________ are written to “maximize” or “minimize” a specific value associated with the product needs in order to define the goal
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Objective statements.

Explanation:

An objective statement can be defined as a short statement that explicitly states or describes what a person wants exactly or is looking out for in a particular item.

Objective statements are written to “maximize” or “minimize” a specific value associated with the product needs in order to define the goal or aim of the design process.

This ultimately implies that, objective statements are used by various manufacturing industries or companies to explicitly define the minimum or maximum requirements for the production of its goods.
