Answer:

<h2>A good way to reduce corrosion is to use an isolating coating or paint on the aluminum and the steel to isolate them electrically. Insulating washers are also effective in isolating the two dissimilar materials and creating a relatively safe surface area</h2>

Water vapor at 6 MPa, 600 degrees C enters a turbine operating at steady state and expands to 10kPa. The mass flow rate is 2 kg/

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Obtain the following properties at 6MPa and 600°C from the table "Superheated water".

$h_1=3658.8KL/Kg\\s_1=7.1693kJ/kg.k$

Obtain the following properties at 10kPa from the table "saturated water"

$h_{f2}=191.81KJ/Kg.K\\h_{fg2}=2392.1KJ/Kg\\s_{f2}=0.6492KJ/Kg.K\\s_{fg2}=7.4996KJ/Kg.K$

Calculate the enthalpy at exit of the turbine using the energy balance equation.

$\frac{dE}{dt}=Q-W+m(h_1-h_2)$

Since, the process is isentropic process $Q=0$

$0=0-W+m(h_1-h_2)\\h_2=h_1-\frac{W}{m}\\\\h_2=3658.8-\frac{2626}{2}\\\\=2345.8kJ/kg$

Use the isentropic relations:

$s_1=s_{2s}\\s_1=s_{f2}+x_{2s}s_{fg2}\\7.1693=6492+x_{2s}(7.4996)\\x_{2s}=87$

Calculate the enthalpy at isentropic state 2s.

$h_{2s}=h_{f2}+x_{2s}.h_{fg2}\\=191.81+0.87(2392.1)\\=2272.937kJ/kg$

a.)

Calculate the isentropic turbine efficiency.

$\eta_{turbine}=\frac{h_1-h_2}{h_1-h_{2s}}\\\\=\frac{3658.8-2345.8}{3658.8-2272.937}=0.947=94.7%$

b.)

Find the quality of the water at state 2

since $h_f$ at 10KPa < $h_2$ < $h_g$ at 10KPa

Therefore, state 2 is in two-phase region.

$h_2=h_{f2}+x_2(h_{fg2})\\2345.8=191.81+x_2(2392.1)\\x_2=0.9$

Calculate the entropy at state 2.

$s_2=s_{f2}+x_2.s_{fg2}\\=0.6492+0.9(7.4996)\\=7.398kJ/Kg.K$

Calculate the rate of entropy production.

$S=\frac{Q}{T}+m(s_2-s_1)$

since, Q = 0

$S=m(s_2-s_1)\\=2\frac{kg}{s}(7.398-7.1693)kJ/kg\\=0.4574kW/k$

What is the perimeter of 14-7 and 3-4

Goshia [24]

Answer:

If you mean two sides are 7 and two sides are 14 then you'd have 42

and for the second you'd have 14

Explanation:

7 + 7 = 14, 14 + 14 = 28, 14 + 28 = 42

3 + 3 = 6, 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 6 = 14

There is an electric field near the Earth's surface whose magnitude is about 145 V/m . How much energy is stored per cubic meter

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

u_e = 9.3 * 10^-8 J / m^3 ( 2 sig. fig)

Explanation:

Given:

- Electric Field strength near earth's surface E = 145 V / m

- permittivity of free space (electric constant) e_o = 8.854 *10^-12 s^4 A^2 / m^3 kg

Find:

- How much energy is stored per cubic meter in this field?

Solution:

- The solution requires the energy density stored between earth's surface and the source of electric field strength. The formula for charge density is given by:

u_e = 0.5*e_o * E^2

- Plug in the values given:

u_e = 0.5*8.854 *10^-12 *145^2

u_e = 9.30777 * 10^-8 J/m^3
