Answer:

\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}

Explanation:

generally regeneration of cycle is used in the case of gas turbine. due to regeneration efficiency of turbine is increased but there is no effect on the on the net work out put of turbine.Actually in regeneration net heta input is decreases that is why total efficiency  increase.

 Now from T-S diagram

    W_{net}=W_{out}-W_{in}

   W_{net}=(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)

  Q_{in}=h_3-h_5

  Due to generation (h_5-h_2) amount of energy has been saved.

  Q_{generation}=Q_{saved}

So efficiency of cycle \eta =\frac{W_{net}}{Q_{in}}

  \eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}

Effectiveness of re-generator

  \varepsilon =\dfrac{(h_5-h_2)}{(h_4-h_2)}

So the efficiency of regenerative cycle

\eta =\dfrac{(h_3-h_4)-(h_2-h_1)}{(h_3-h_5)}

The correct area in sq. Inches and sq. Feet is: Select one: a. 966.76 sq. Inches and 8.056 sq. Feet b. 96.676 sq. Inches and 8.0
kogti [31]

Answer:

c. 96.676 sq. Inches and 0.671 sq. Feet

Explanation:

From the list of the given option, we are told to chose the correct area in sq. inches that correspond to sq. Feet.

If we recall from the knowledge of our conversion  table that,

1 sq feet = 144 sq inches

Then, let's confirm if the option were true.

a.  966.76 sq. Inches and 8.056 sq. Feet

Assuming

if 1 sq feet = 8.056

in sq inches, we have ( 8.056 × 144 ) sq inches

= 1160.064 sq. inches

So, 1160.064 sq. inches is equal to 8.056 sq. Feet. Then option 1 is wrong

b. 96.676 sq. Inches and 8.056 sq. Feet

if 1 sq feet = 8.056

in sq inches, we have ( 8.056 × 144 ) sq inches

= 1160.064 sq. inches

So, 1160.064 sq. inches is equal to 8.056 sq. Feet. Then option 2 is wrong/

c. 96.676 sq. Inches and 0.671 sq. Feet

if 1 sq feet = 0.671

in sq inches, we have ( 0.671 × 144 ) sq inches

=  96.624 sq. Inches which is closely equal to 96.676 sq. Inches

Therefore, this is the correct answer as it proves that 96.676 sq. Inches = 0.671 sq. Feet

A circular column is fixed at the base and not supported at the top. If the column needs to be 15ft and hold 10kips, what is the
muminat

Answer:

The required size of column is length = 15 ft and diameter = 4.04 inches

Explanation:

Given;

Length of the column, L = 15 ft

Applied load, P = 10 kips = 10 × 10³ Psi

End condition as fixed at the base and free at the top

thus,

Effective length of the column, \L_e = 2L = 30 ft = 360 inches

now, for aluminium

Elastic modulus, E = 1.0 × 10⁷ Psi

Now, from the Euler's critical load, we have

P =\frac{\pi^2EI}{L_e^2}

where, I is the moment of inertia

on substituting the respective values, we get

10\times10^3 =\frac{\pi^2\times1.0\times10^7\times I}{360^2}

or

I = 13.13 in⁴

also for circular cross-section

I = \frac{\pi}{64}\times d^4

thus,

13.13 = \frac{\pi}{64}\times d^4

or

d = 4.04 inches

The required size of column is length = 15 ft and diameter = 4.04 inches

A walrus loses heat by conduction through its blubber at the rate of 220 W when immersed in −1.00°C water. Its internal core tem
Llana [10]

Answer:

The average thickness of the blubber is<u> 0.077 m</u>

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the average thickness of the Walrus blubber.

We employ a mathematical formula to calculate this;

The rate of heat transfer(H) through the Walrus blubber = dQ/dT = KA(T2-T1)/L

Where dQ is the change in amount of heat transferred

dT is the temperature gradient(change in temperature) i.e T2-T1

dQ/dT = 220 W

K is the conductivity of fatty tissue without blood = 0.20 (J/s · m · °C)

A is the surface area which is 2.23 m^2

T2 = 37.0 °C

T1 = -1.0 °C

L is ?

We can rewrite the equation in terms of L as follows;

L × dQ/dT = KA(T2-T1)

L = KA(T2-T1) ÷ dQ/dT

Imputing the values listed above;

L = (0.2 * 2.23)(37-(-1))/220

L = (0.2 * 2.23 * 38)/220 = 16.948/220 = 0.077 m
