Answer:

0.067wc

Explanation:

The formula is actual static pressure loss = (total equivalent divided by 100) multiplied by rate of friction

We substitute values

actual static pressure = 0.1

Total equivalent length = 150 ft

0.1 = (150ft/100) multiplied by Rate of friction

Friction rate at 100ft = 0.067

So we have that the required friction needed is 0.067wc

(3) Calculate the heat flux through a sheet of brass 7.5 mm (0.30 in.) thick if the temperatures at the two faces are 150°Cand 5

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

a.) 1.453MW/m2, b.) 2,477,933.33 BTU/hr c.) 22,733.33 BTU/hr d.) 1,238,966.67 BTU/hr

Explanation:

Heat flux is the rate at which thermal (heat) energy is transferred per unit surface area. It is measured in W/m2

Heat transfer(loss or gain) is unit of energy per unit time. It is measured in W or BTU/hr

1W = 3.41 BTU/hr

Given parameters:

thickness, t = 7.5mm = 7.5/1000 = 0.0075m

Temperatures 150 C = 150 + 273 = 423 K

50 C = 50 + 273 = 323 K

Temperature difference, T = 423 - 323 = 100 K

We are assuming steady heat flow;

a.) Heat flux, Q" = kT/t

K= thermal conductivity of the material

The thermal conductivity of brass, k = 109.0 W/m.K

Heat flux, $Q" = \frac{109 * 100}{0.0075} = 1,453,333.33 W/m^{2} \\ Heat flux, Q" = 1.453MW/m^{2} \\$

b.) Area of sheet, A = 0.5m2

Heat loss, Q = kAT/t

Heat loss, $Q = \frac{109*0.5*100}{0.0075} = 726,666.667W$

Heat loss, Q = 726,666.667 * 3.41 = 2,477,933.33 BTU/hr

c.) Material is now given as soda lime glass.

Thermal conductivity of soda lime glass, k is approximately 1W/m.K

Heat loss, $Q=\frac{1*0.5*100}{0.0075} = 6,666.67W$

Heat loss, Q = 6,666.67 * 3.41 = 22,733.33 BTU/hr

d.) Thickness, t is given as 15mm = 15/1000 = 0.015m

Heat loss, $Q=\frac{109*0.5*100}{0.015} =363,333.33W$

Heat loss, Q = 363,333.33 * 3.41 = 1,238,966.67 BTU/hr

In this problem set, you will implement multidimensional scaling (MDS) from scratch. You may use standard matrix/vector librarie

EleoNora [17]

Features of Multidimensional scaling(MDS) from scratch is described below.

Explanation:

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a way to reduce the dimensionality of data to visualize it. We basically want to project our (likely highly dimensional) data into a lower dimensional space and preserve the distances between points.

If we have some highly complex data that we project into some lower N dimensions, we will assign each point from our data a coordinate in this lower dimensional space, and the idea is that these N dimensional coordinates are ordered based on their ability to capture variance in the data. Since we can only visualize things in 2D, this is why it is common to assess your MDS based on plotting the first and second dimension of the output.

If you look at the output of an MDS algorithm, which will be points in 2D or 3D space, the distances represent similarity. So very close points = very similar, and points farther away from one another = less similar.

Working of MDS

The input to the MDS algorithm is our proximity matrix. There are two kinds of classical MDS that we could use: Classical (metric) MDS is for data that has metric properties, like actual distances from a map or calculated from a vector .Nonmetric MDS is for more ordinal data (such as human-provided similarity ratings) for which we can say a 1 is more similar than a 2, but there is no defined (metric) distance between the values of 1 and 2.

Uses

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a means of visualizing the level of similarity of individual cases of a dataset. MDS is used to translate "information about the pairwise 'distances' among a set of n objects or individuals" into a configuration of n points mapped into an abstract Cartesian space.

A 50 Hz, four pole turbo-generator rated 100 MVA, 11 kV has an inertia constant of 8.0 MJ/MVA. (a) Find the stored energy in the

raketka [301]

Given Information:

Frequency = f = 60 Hz

Complex rated power = G = 100 MVA

Intertia constant = H = 8 MJ/MVA

Mechanical power = Pmech = 80 MW

Electrical power = Pelec = 50 MW

Number of poles = P = 4

No. of cycles = 10

Required Information:

(a) stored energy = ?

(b) rotor acceleration = ?

(c) change in torque angle = ?

(c) rotor speed = ?

Answer:

(a) stored energy = 800 Mj

(b) rotor acceleration = 337.46 elec deg/s²

(c) change in torque angle (in elec deg) = 6.75 elec deg

(c) change in torque angle (in rmp/s) = 28.12 rpm/s

(c) rotor speed = 1505.62 rpm

Explanation:

(a) Find the stored energy in the rotor at synchronous speed.

The stored energy is given by

$E = G \times H$

Where G represents complex rated power and H is the inertia constant of turbo-generator.

$E = 100 \times 8 \\\\E = 800 \: MJ$

(b) If the mechanical input is suddenly raised to 80 MW for an electrical load of 50 MW, find rotor acceleration, neglecting mechanical and electrical losses.

The rotor acceleration is given by

$P_a = P_{mech} - P_{elec} = M \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}$

Where M is given by

$M = \frac{E}{180 \times f}$

$M = \frac{800}{180 \times 50}$

$M = 0.0889 \: MJ \cdot s/ elec \: \: deg$

So, the rotor acceleration is

$P_a = 80 - 50 = 0.0889 \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}$

$30 = 0.0889 \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}$

$\frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} = \frac{30}{0.0889}$

$\frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} = 337.46 \:\: elec \: deg/s^2$

(c) If the acceleration calculated in part(b) is maintained for 10 cycles, find the change in torque angle and rotor speed in revolutions per minute at the end of this period.

The change in torque angle is given by

$\Delta \delta = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}\cdot (t)^2$

Where t is given by

$1 \: cycle = 1/f = 1/50 \\\\10 \: cycles = 10/50 = 0.2 \\\\t = 0.2 \: sec$

So,

$\Delta \delta = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 337.46 \cdot (0.2)^2$

$$ \Delta \delta = 6.75 \: elec \: deg$

The change in torque in rpm/s is given by

$\Delta \delta = \frac{337.46 \cdot 60}{2 \cdot 360\circ }$

$\Delta \delta =28.12 \: \: rpm/s$

The rotor speed in revolutions per minute at the end of this period (10 cycles) is given by

$Rotor \: speed = \frac{120 \cdot f}{P} + (\Delta \delta)\cdot t$

Where P is the number of poles of the turbo-generator.

$Rotor \: speed = \frac{120 \cdot 50}{4} + (28.12)\cdot 0.2$

$Rotor \: speed = 1500 + 5.62$

$$ Rotor \: speed = 1505.62 \:\: rpm$
