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

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:  

Explanation:  

This is a little lengthy and tricky, but nevertheless i would give a step by step analysis to make this as simple as possible.  

(a). here we are asked to determine the Temperature and Pressure.  

Given that the properties of Air;  

ha = 230.02 KJ/Kg  

Ta = 230 K  

Pra = 0.5477  

From the energy balance equation for a diffuser;  

ha + Va²/2 = h₁ + V₁²/2  

h₁ = ha + Va²/2 (where V₁²/2 = 0)  

h₁ = 230.02 + 220²/2 ˣ 1/10³  

h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg  

⇒ now we obtain the properties of air at h₁ = 254.22 KJ/Kg  

from this we have;  

Pr₁ = 0.7329 + (0.8405 - 0.7329)[(254.22 - 250.05) / (260.09 - 250.05)]  

Pr₁ = 0.77759  

therefore T₁ = 254.15K  

P₁ = (Pr₁/Pra)Pa  

= 0.77759/0.5477 ˣ 26  

P₁ = 36.91 kPa  

now we calculate Pr₂  

Pr₂ = Pr₁ (P₂/P₁) = 0.77759 ˣ 11 = 8.55349  

⇒ now we obtain properties of air at  

Pr₂ = 8.55349 and h₂ = 505.387 KJ/Kg  

calculating the enthalpy of air at state 2  

ηc = h₁ - h₂ / h₁ - h₂  

0.85 = 254.22 - 505.387 / 254.22 - h₂  

h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg  

to obtain the properties of air at h₂ = 549.71 KJ/Kg  

T₂ = 545.15 K

⇒ to calculate the pressure of air at state 2

P₂/P₁ = 11

P₂ = 11 ˣ 36.913  

p₂ = 406.043 kPa

but pressure of air at state 3 is the same,

i.e. P₂ = P₃ = 406.043 kPa

P₃ = 406.043 kPa

To obtain the properties of air at  

T₃ = 1400 K, h₃ = 1515.42 kJ/Kg and Pr = 450.5

for cases of turbojet engine,

we have that work output from turbine = work input to the compressor

Wt = Wr

(h₃ - h₄) = (h₂ - h₁)

h₄ = h₃ - h₂ + h₁  

= 1515.42 - 549.71 + 254.22

h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

properties of air at h₄ = 1219.93 kJ/Kg

T₄ = 1140 + (1160 - 1140) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

T₄ = 1150.58 K

Pr₄ = 193.1 + (207.2 - 193.1) [(1219.93 - 1207.57) / (1230.92 - 1207.57)]

Pr₄ = 200.5636

Calculating the ideal enthalpy of the air at state 4;

Лr = h₃ - h₄ / h₃ - h₄*

0.9 = 1515.42 - 1219.93 / 1515.42 - h₄  

h₄* = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

now to obtain the properties of air at h₄⁻ = 1187.09 kJ/Kg

P₄* = 179.7 + (193.1 - 179.7) [(1187.09 -1184.28) / (1207.57 - 1184.28)]

P₄* = 181.316

P₄ = (Pr₄/Pr₃)P₃       i.e. 3-4 isentropic process

P₄ = 181.316/450.5 * 406.043

P₄ = 163.42 kPa

For the 4-5 process;

Pr₅ = (P₅/P₄)Pr₄

Pr₅ = 26/163.42 * 200.56 = 31.9095

to obtain the properties of air at Pr₅ = 31.9095

h₅= 724.04 + (734.82 - 724.04) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

h₅ = 734.09 KJ/Kg

T₅ = 710 + (720 - 710) [(31.9095 - 3038) / (32.02 - 30.38)]

T₅ = 719.32 K

(b) Now we are asked to calculate the rate of heat addition to the air passing through the combustor;

QH = m(h₃-h₂)

QH = 25(1515.42 - 549.71)

QH = 24142.75 kW

(c). To calculate the velocity at the nozzle exit;

we apply steady energy equation of a flow to nozzle

h₄ + V₄²/2 = h₅ + V₅²/2

h₄  + 0  = h₅₅ + V₅²/2

1219.9 ˣ 10³ = 734.09 ˣ 10³ + V₅²/2

therefore, V₅ = 985.74 m/s

You want to plate a steel part having a surface area of 160 with a 0.002--thick layer of lead. The atomic mass of lead is 207.19
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

<u><em>To answer this question we assumed that the area units and the thickness units are given in inches.</em></u>

The number of atoms of lead required is 1.73x10²³.    

Explanation:

To find the number of atoms of lead we need to find first the volume of the plate:

V = A*t

<u>Where</u>:

A: is the surface area = 160

t: is the thickness = 0.002

<u><em>Assuming that the units given above are in inches we proceed to calculate the volume: </em></u>

V = A*t = 160 in^{2}*0.002 in = 0.32 in^{3}*(\frac{2.54 cm}{1 in})^{3} = 5.24 cm^{3}    

Now, using the density we can find the mass:

m = d*V = 11.36 g/cm^{3}*5.24 cm^{3} = 59.5 g

Finally, with the Avogadros number (N_{A}) and with the atomic mass (A) we can find the number of atoms (N):

N = \frac{m*N_{A}}{A} = \frac{59.5 g*6.022 \cdot 10^{23} atoms/mol}{207.19 g/mol} = 1.73 \cdot 10^{23} atoms    

Hence, the number of atoms of lead required is 1.73x10²³.

I hope it helps you!

. Using the Newton Raphson method, determine the uniform flow depth in a trapezoidal channel with a bottom width of 3.0 m and si
Over [174]

Answer:

y  ≈ 2.5

Explanation:

Given data:

bottom width is 3 m

side slope is 1:2

discharge is 10 m^3/s

slope is 0.004

manning roughness coefficient is 0.015

manning equation is written as

v =1/n R^{2/3} s^{1/2}

where R is hydraulic radius

S = bed slope

Q = Av =A 1/n R^{2/3} s^{1/2}

A = 1/2 \times (B+B+4y) \times y =(B+2y) y

R =\frac{A}{P}

P is perimeter =  (B+2\sqrt{5} y)

R =\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}

Q = (2+2y) y) \times 1/0.015 [\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}]^{2/3} 0.004^{1/2}

solving for y100 =(2+2y) y) \times (1/0.015) [\frac{(3+2y) y}{(3+2\sqrt{5} y)}]^{2/3} \times 0.004^{1/2}

solving for y value by using iteration method ,we get

y  ≈ 2.5
