Answer:

Three ways that engineers explore possible solutions in their projects are;

1) Prototyping

2) Simulation

3) Calculations

Explanation:

1) Prototyping is the process of experimental testing of samples of design, or model of a product with the possibility of the inclusion of control of parameters in order to determine the workability of a solution.

2) Simulation is the process of creating an imitation of a situation, operation or process which can be used to determine if a particular solution will be able to work as required in the simulated environment of a problem.

3) Calculations are used to find preliminary results of particular situations, their cause and effects based on scientific laws, theories and hypothesis such that the factor of the problem is equated with the available ideas to find the best possible solution.

Answer:

Technician A is wrong

Technician B is right

Explanation:

voltage drop of 0.8 volts on the starter ground circuit is not within specifications. Voltage drop should be within the range of 0.2 V to 0.6 V but not more than that.

Neko [114]

Explanation:

For true Strain:

step 1:

E true = Ln(1 + 0.5 ) = 0.40

Step 2:

E true = Ln(1 + 0.33 ) = 0.29

By single step process:

E true = Ln(1 + 1 ) = 0.69

total strain of step process = 0.40 + 0.29 = 0.69 units

SO TRUE STRAIN IS ADDITIVE.

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a little lengthy and tricky, but nevertheless i would give a step by step analysis to make this as simple as possible.

(a). here we are asked to determine the Temperature and Pressure.

Given that the properties of Air;

ha = 230.02 KJ/Kg

Ta = 230 K

Pra = 0.5477

From the energy balance equation for a diffuser;

ha + Va²/2 = h₁ + V₁²/2

h₁ = ha + Va²/2 (where V₁²/2 = 0)

h₁ = 230.02 + 220²/2 ˣ 1/10³

h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg

⇒ now we obtain the properties of air at h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg

from this we have;

Pr₁ = 0.7329 + (0.8405 - 0.7329)[(254.22 - 250.05) / (260.09 - 250.05)]

Pr₁ = 0.77759

therefore T₁ = 254.15K

P₁ = (Pr₁/Pra)Pa

= 0.77759/0.5477 ˣ 26

P₁ = 36.91 kPa

now we calculate Pr₂

Pr₂ = Pr₁ (P₂/P₁) = 0.77759 ˣ 11 = 8.55349

⇒ now we obtain properties of air at

Pr₂ = 8.55349 and h₂ = 505.387 KJ/Kg

calculating the enthalpy of air at state 2

ηc = h₁ - h₂ / h₁ - h₂

0.85 = 254.22 - 505.387 / 254.22 - h₂

h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg

to obtain the properties of air at h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg

T₂ = 545.15 K

⇒ to calculate the pressure of air at state 2

P₂/P₁ = 11

P₂ = 11 ˣ 36.913

p₂ = 406.043 kPa

but pressure of air at state 3 is the same,

i.e. P₂ = P₃ = 406.043 kPa

P₃ = 406.043 kPa

To obtain the properties of air at

T₃ = 1400 K, h₃ = 1515.42 kJ/Kg and Pr = 450.5

for cases of turbojet engine,

we have that work output from turbine = work input to the compressor

Wt = Wr

(h₃ - h₄) = (h₂ - h₁)

h₄ = h₃ - h₂ + h₁

= 1515.42 - 549.71 + 254.22

h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

properties of air at h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

T₄ = 1140 + (1160 - 1140) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

T₄ = 1150.58 K

Pr₄ = 193.1 + (207.2 - 193.1) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

Pr₄ = 200.5636

Calculating the ideal enthalpy of the air at state 4;

Лr = h₃ - h₄ / h₃ - h₄*

0.9 = 1515.42 - 1219.93 / 1515.42 - h₄

h₄* = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

now to obtain the properties of air at h₄⁻ = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

P₄* = 179.7 + (193.1 - 179.7) [(1187.09 -1184.28) / (1207.57 - 1184.28)]

P₄* = 181.316

P₄ = (Pr₄/Pr₃)P₃ i.e. 3-4 isentropic process

P₄ = 181.316/450.5 * 406.043

P₄ = 163.42 kPa

For the 4-5 process;

Pr₅ = (P₅/P₄)Pr₄

Pr₅ = 26/163.42 * 200.56 = 31.9095

to obtain the properties of air at Pr₅ = 31.9095

h₅= 724.04 + (734.82 - 724.04) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

h₅ = 734.09 KJ/Kg

T₅ = 710 + (720 - 710) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

T₅ = 719.32 K

(b) Now we are asked to calculate the rate of heat addition to the air passing through the combustor;

QH = m(h₃-h₂)

QH = 25(1515.42 - 549.71)

QH = 24142.75 kW

(c). To calculate the velocity at the nozzle exit;

we apply steady energy equation of a flow to nozzle

h₄ + V₄²/2 = h₅ + V₅²/2

h₄ + 0 = h₅₅ + V₅²/2

1219.9 ˣ 10³ = 734.09 ˣ 10³ + V₅²/2

therefore, V₅ = 985.74 m/s
