Answer: True

Explanation:

Structural engineering is simply referred to as a branch of civil engineering, and they help in the designing of structures like buildings, dams, tunnels, bridges, tunnels, etc. Structural engineers typically work as consultants.

Wireless sensor networks are used by structural engineers to monitor the condition of dams and bridges. Wireless sensor network refers are dedicated sensors that are used in monitoring the physical conditions of the bridges and to know if they're still in good conditions.

Refrigerant-134a at 400 psia has a specific volume of 0.1144 ft3/lbm. Determine the temperature of the refrigerant based on (a)

vekshin1

Answer:

a) Using Ideal gas Equation, T = 434.98°R = 435°R

b) Using Van Der Waal's Equation, T = 637.32°R = 637°R

c) T obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is T = 559.67°R = 560°R

Explanation:

a) Ideal gas Equation

PV = mRT

T = PV/mR

P = pressure = 400 psia

V/m = specific volume = 0.1144 ft³/lbm

R = gas constant = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T = 400 × 0.1144/0.1052 = 434.98 °R

b) Van Der Waal's Equation

T = (1/R) (P + (a/v²)) (v - b)

a = Van Der Waal's constant = (27R²(T꜀ᵣ)²)/(64P꜀ᵣ)

R = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T꜀ᵣ = critical temperature for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 673.6°R

P꜀ᵣ = critical pressure for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 588.7 psia

a = (27 × 0.1052² × 673.6²)/(64 × 588.7)

a = 3.596 ft⁶.psia/lbm²

b = (RT꜀ᵣ)/8P꜀ᵣ

b = (0.1052 × 673.6)/(8 × 588.7) = 0.01504 ft³/lbm

T = (1/0.1052) (400 + (3.596/0.1144²) (0.1144 - 0.01504) = 637.32°R

c) The temperature for the refrigerant-134a as obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is

T = 100°F = 559.67°R

Who ate cdonalds in hell with god then died from food ppoisoning

siniylev [52]

Answer:

McDonald’s announced recently that they are going through some major menu changes, and will be nixing some unnecessary ingredients. They also are finally listening to us, and will stop using chickens that are injected with growth-promoting antibiotics, along with dairy products raised with the growth hormone rbST but they still are using a lot of factory farmed meat and the beef is still raised with antibiotics.

McDonald’s even said they might add kale to their menu, by putting it in salads or in a smoothie. I LOVE kale, and I hope they don’t find a way to ruin it. You know the saying, “You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig”. So, they need to do a lot more than just add kale to their menu before I’d ever eat there. The problem is that millions are still eating there and consuming several questionable food additives that McDonald’s could remove entirely if they really wanted to.

Problem 10.012 SI A vapor-compression refrigeration cycle operates at steady state with Refrigerant 134a as the working fluid. S

pychu [463]

Answer:

a) 4.1 kw

b) 4.68 tons

c) 4.02

Explanation:

Saturated vapor enters compressor at ( p1 ) = 2.6 bar

Saturated liquid exits the condenser at ( p2 ) = 12 bar

Isentropic compressor efficiency = 80%

Mass flow rate = 7 kg/min

A) Determine compressor power in KW

compressor power = m ( h2 - h1 )

= 7 / 60 ( 283.71 - 248.545 )

= 4.1 kw

B) Determine refrigeration capacity in tons = m ( h1 - h4 )

= 7/60 ( 248.545 - 107.34 )

= 16.47 kw = 4.68 tons

C) coefficient of performance ( COP )

= Refrigeration capacity / compressor power

= 16.47 / 4.1 = 4.02

Attached below is the beginning part of the solution
