An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500

mm. The gas enters the heating section of the duct at 100 kPa and 27 deg C with a volume flow rate of 15 m3/s. If heat is lost from the gas in the duct to the surroundings at a rate of 80 kW, Calculate the exit temperature of the gas in deg C. (Assume constant pressure, ideal gas, negligible change in kinetic and potential energies and constant specific heat; Cp =1000 J/kg K; R = 500 J/kg K)

Answer: The exit temperature of the gas in deg C is 32^{o}C.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

C_{p} = 1000 J/kg K,   R = 500 J/kg K = 0.5 kJ/kg K (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

P_{1} = 100 kPa,     V_{1} = 15 m^{3}/s

T_{1} = 27^{o}C = (27 + 273) K = 300 K

We know that for an ideal gas the mass flow rate will be calculated as follows.

     P_{1}V_{1} = mRT_{1}

or,         m = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}}

                = \frac{100 \times 15}{0.5 \times 300}

                = 10 kg/s

Now, according to the steady flow energy equation:

mh_{1} + Q = mh_{2} + W

h_{1} + \frac{Q}{m} = h_{2} + \frac{W}{m}

C_{p}T_{1} - \frac{80}{10} = C_{p}T_{2} - \frac{130}{10}

(T_{2} - T_{1})C_{p} = \frac{130 - 80}{10}

(T_{2} - T_{1}) = 5 K

T_{2} = 5 K + 300 K

T_{2} = 305 K

           = (305 K - 273 K)

           = 32^{o}C

Therefore, we can conclude that the exit temperature of the gas in deg C is 32^{o}C.

Explain the differences between planned and predictive maintenance.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Planned maintenance refers to any scheduled activity carried out to check a machine is working ok and diagnose procedures to fix it if need it. On the other hand, predictive mainteance is all the techniques which help to define if a machine requires or not maintenance activities so far.

Explanation:

Planned maintenance is based on preventive routines to ensure a machine is working in acceptable conditions and at the same time prevent them to change to risky values performing acticities like parts replacement, cleaning,  etc. The key of this maintenance is schedule, that is to say, is a maintenance that has to be carried out constantly each certain time. Predictive maintenance is different because it is used to define if a machie needs any kind of inspection or if, on the contrary, the machine can continue operating without any intervention. The good point about predictive maintenance is the capability of telling when a maintenance is required and when is no necessarily required which is ideal to save costs.

A homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time. Determine the average cost per k
Llana [10]

Answer:

16.2 cents

Explanation:

Given that a homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time.

Where Base monthly charge of $10.00. First 100 kWh per month at 16 cents/kWh. Next 200 kWh per month at 10 cents/kWh. Over 300 kWh per month at 6 cents/kWh.

For the first 100 kWh:

16 cent × 100 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars

Since 1 dollar = 100 cents

For the remaining energy:

260 - 100 = 160 kwh

10 cents × 160 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars

The total cost = 10 + 16 + 16 = 42 dollars

Note that the base monthly of 10 dollars is added.

The cost of 260 kWh of energy consumption in July is 42 dollars

To determine the average cost per kWh for the month of July, divide the total cost by the total energy consumed.

That is, 42 / 260 = 0.1615 dollars

Convert it to cents by multiplying the result by 100.

0.1615 × 100 = 16.15 cents

Approximately 16.2 cents

A strain gage is mounted at an angle of 30° with respect to the longitudinal axis of the cylindrical pressure. The pressure vess
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

1790 μrad.

Explanation:

Young's modulus, E is given as 10000 ksi,

μ is given as 0.33,

Inside diameter, d = 54 in,

Thickness, t = 1 in,

Pressure, p = 794 psi = 0.794 ksi

To determine shear strain, longitudinal strain and circumferential strain will be evaluated,

Longitudinal strain, eL = (pd/4tE)(1 - 2μ)

eL = (0.794 x 54)(1 - 0.66)/(4 x 1 x 10000)

eL = 3.64 x 10-⁴ radians

Circumferential strain , eH = (pd/4tE)(2-μ)

eH = (0.794 x 54)(2 - 0.33)/(4 x 1 x 10000)

eH = 1.79 x 10-³ radians

The maximum shear strain is 1790 μrad.
