Nitrogen gas is compressed at steady state from a pressure of 14.2 psi and a temperature 60o F to a pressure of 120 psi and a te

mperature of 500o F. The gas enters a compressor with a volumetric flow rate of 1200 ft3 /min. The magnitude of the heat transfer rate from the compressor to its surroundings is 5% of the compressor power input. Using the ideal gas model (with variable specific heats) and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine (a) The compressor power input (in horsepower). (b) The volumetric flow rate at the exit (in ft3 /min).

Answer:

a) 229.4281 hp.

b) 262.15 ft3/min.

Explanation:

Given data:

P1 = 14.2 psi

T1 = 60°F = 520° R

P2 = 120 psi

T2 = 500°F = 960° R

volumetric flow rate ( Av1 ) = 1200 ft^3 /min = 20 ft^3 / sec

attached below is the detailed solution

As the impurity concentration in solid solution of a metal is increased, the tensile strength:________.a) decreasesb) increasesc
valkas [14]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

By inhibiting the motion of dislocations by impurities in a solid solutions, is a strengthening mechanism. In solid solutions it is atomic level strengthening resulting from resistance to dislocation motion. Hence, the strength of the alloys can differ with respect to the precipitate's property. Example, the precipitate is stronger (ability to an obstacle to the dislocation motion) than the matrix and it shows an improvement of strength.

How is air pressure affected by the shape of an aircraft wing
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Airplanes' wings are curved on top and flatter on the bottom. That shape makes air flow over the top faster than under the bottom. As a result, less air pressure is on top of the wing. This lower pressure makes the wing, and the airplane it's attached to, move up.

A bridge to be fabricated of steel girders is designed to be 500 m long and 12 m wide at ambient temperature (assumed 20°C). Exp
Volgvan

Answer:

a) 22.5number

b) 22.22 m length

Explanation:

Given data:

Bridge length = 500 m

width of bridge = 12 m

Maximum temperature = 40 degree C

minimum temperature  = - 35 degree C

Maximum expansion can be determined as

\Delta L = L \alpha (T_{max} - T_{min})

where , \alpha is expansion coefficient = 12\times 10^{-6} degree C

SO, \Delta L = 500\times 12\times 10^{-6}\times ( 40 - (-35))

\Delta L = 0.45 m = 450 mm

number of minimum expansion joints is calculated as

n = \frac{450}{20} = 22.5

b) length of each bridge

Length = \frac{500}{22.5} = 22.22 m
