Answer:

a) 1.9%

b) T2s = 505.5 k = 232.5°C

Explanation:

P1 = 95 kPa

T1 = 27°C  = 300 k

P2 = 600 kPa

T1 = 277°c  = 550 k

Table used : Table ( A - 17 ) Ideal gas properties of air

<u>a) determining the isentropic efficiency of the compressor </u>

Л = ( h2s - h1 ) / ( h2a -  h1 ) ---- ( 1 )

where ; h1 = 300.19 kJ/kg , T1 = 300 K , h2a = 554.74 kJ/kg , T2 = 550 k

To get h2s we have to calculate the the value of Pr2 using Pr1(relative pressure)

 Pr2 = P2/P1 * Pr = ( 600 / 95 ) * 1.306  hence; h2s = 500.72 kJ/kg

back to equation1

Л = 0.019 = 1.9%

<u>b) Calculate the exit temperature of the air if compressor is reversible </u>

if compressor is reversible the corresponding exit temperature

T2s = 505.5 k = 232.5°C

given that h2s = 500.72 kJ/kg

Establishes general guidelines concerning licensing and vehicle
gavmur [86]

Answer:

A. National Highway Safety Act

Explanation:

The National Highway Safety Act establishes general guidelines concerning licensing, vehicle registration and inspection, and traffic laws for state regulations. The act was made in 1966 to reduce the amount of death on the highway as a result of increase in deaths by 30% between 1960 and 1965

National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act regulates vehicle manufacturers  by ensuring national safety standards and issuance recalls for defective vehicles

Uniform Traffic Control Devices Act  defines shapes, colors and locations for road signs, traffic signals, and road markings

In normal operation, a paper mill generates excess steam at 20 bar and 400◦C. It is planned to use this steam as the feed to a t
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The maximum power that can be generated is 127.788 kW

Explanation:

Using the steam table

Enthalpy at 20 bar = 2799 kJ/kg

Enthalpy at 2 bar = 2707 kJ/kg

Change in enthalpy = 2799 - 2707 = 92 kJ/kg

Mass flow rate of steam = 5000 kg/hr = 5000 kJ/hr × 1 hr/3600 s = 1.389 kg/s

Maximum power generated = change in enthalpy × mass flow rate = 92 kJ/kg × 1.389 kg/s = 127.788 kJ/s = 127.788 kW

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Mechanical resonance frequency is the frequency of a system to react sharply when the frequency of oscillation is equal to its resonant frequency (natural frequency).

The physical dimension of the silicon is 10kg

Explanation:

Using the formular, Force, F = 1/2π√k/m

At resonance, spring constant, k = mw² ( where w = 2πf), when spring constant, k = centripetal force ( F = mw²r).

Hence, F = 1/2π√mw²/m = f ( f = frequency)

∴ f = F = mg, taking g = 9.8 m/s²

100 Hz = 9.8 m/s² X m

m = 100/9.8 = 10.2kg
