Heating of Oil by Air. A flow of 2200 lbm/h of hydrocarbon oil at 100°F enters a heat exchanger, where it is heated to 150°F by

hot air. The hot air enters at 300°F and is to leave at 200°F. Calculate the total lb mol air/h needed. The mean heat capacity of the oil is 0.45 btu/lbm · °F.

Answer:

2062 lbm/h

Explanation:

The air will lose heat and the oil will gain heat.

These heats will be equal in magnitude.

qo = -qa

They will be of different signs because one is entering iits system and the other is exiting.

The heat exchanged by oil is:

qo = Gp * Cpo * (tof - toi)

The heat exchanged by air is:

qa = Ga * Cpa * (taf - tai)

The specific heat capacity of air at constant pressure is:

Cpa = 0.24 BTU/(lbm*F)

Therefore:

Gp * Cpo * (tof - toi) = Ga * Cpa * (taf - tai)

Ga = (Gp * Cpo * (tof - toi)) / (Cpa * (taf - tai))

Ga = (2200 * 0.45 * (150 - 100)) / (0.24 * (300 - 200)) = 2062 lbm/h

A flywheel performs each of these functions except: A. Contains a gear used for engine starting B. Smoothes engine operation C.
torisob [31]

Answer:

C. Provides lubrication to parts

Explanation:

Flywheel :

 Flywheel is a device which stored the mechanical energy.This energy can be use when more energy required during any operation.Due to high moment of inertia of the flywheel it resist the change in the speed .The flywheel is attached to the crank shaft at the rear side of the engine.

The flywheel perform following function:

1. It connects the crankshaft and the transmission system.

2.It makes the engine operation smooth.

3.It contains gear and other parts of the engine.

But it can not provide lubrication.

The electricity generated by wind turbines annually in kilowatt-hours per year is given in a file. The amount of electricity is
Anika [276]

Answer:

Steps:

1. Create a text file that contains blade diameter (in feet), wind velocity (in mph) and the approximate electricity generated for the year

2.  load the data file for example, in matlab, use ('fileame.txt') to load the file

3. create variables from each column of your data

  for example, in matlab,  

     x=t{1}

     y=t{2}

4. plot the wind velocity and electricity generated.

   plot(x, y)

5. Label the individual axis and name the graph title.

    title('Graph of wind velocity vs approximate electricity generated for the year')

     xlabel('wind velocity')

     ylabel('approximate electricity generated for the year')
