A stationary gas-turbine power plant operates on a simple ideal Brayton cycle with air as the working fluid. The air enters the

compressor at 95 kPa and 290 K and the turbine at 760 kPa and 1100 K. Heat is transferred to air at a rate of 35,000 kJ/s. Determine the power delivered by this plant (a) assuming constant specific heats at room temperature and (b) accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature.

Answer:

A) W' = 15680 KW

B) W' = 17113.87 KW

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature at state 1; T1 = 290 K

Temperature at state 3; T3 = 1100 K

Rate of heat transfer; Q_in = 35000 kJ/s = 35000 Kw

Pressure of air into compressor; P_c = 95 kPa

Pressure of air into turbine; P_t = 760 kPa

A) The power assuming constant specific heats at room temperature is gotten from;

W' = [1 - ((T4 - T1)/(T3 - T2))] × Q_in

Now, we don't have T4 and T2 but they can be gotten from;

T4 = [T3 × (r_p)^((1 - k)/k)]

T2 = [T1 × (r_p)^((k - 1)/k)]

r_p = P_t/P_c

r_p = 760/95

r_p = 8

Also,k which is specific heat capacity of air has a constant value of 1.4

Thus;

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

T4 = [(1100 × (8^((1 - 1.4)/1.4)]

T4 = 607.25 K

T2 = [290 × (8^((1.4 - 1)/1.4)]

T2 = 525.32 K

Thus;

W' = [1 - ((607.25 - 290)/(1100 - 525.32))] × 35000

W' = 0.448 × 35000

W' = 15680 KW

B) The power accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature is given by;

W' = [1 - ((h4 - h1)/(h3 - h2))] × Q_in

From the table attached, we have the following;

At temperature of 607.25 K and by interpolation; h4 = 614.64 KJ/K

At T3 = 1100 K, h3 = 1161.07 KJ/K

At T1 = 290 K, h1 = 290.16 KJ/K

At T2 = 525.32 K, and by interpolation, h2 = 526.12 KJ/K

Thus;

W' = [1 - ((614.64 - 290.16)/(1161.07 - 526.12))] × 35000

W' = 17113.87 KW

Your Java program will be reading input from a file name strInput.txt. Each record contains String firstname String lastName Str
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The program requires that you have the specified input files and it reads from each file at a time and processes salary in digits, states the city, state and bonus with respective first and last name as requested in the question. Note that you must have access to the mentioned output files for the program to work properly. Below is the java version of the program.

import java.io.File;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

import java.io.PrintWriter;

import java.util.Scanner;

class Driver

{

public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException

{

Scanner sc = new Scanner(new File("strInput.txt"));

PrintWriter pd = new PrintWriter(new File("strOutputD"));

PrintWriter prf = new PrintWriter(new File("strOutputRF"));

String firstname = "", lastname = "", strSalary = "", status = "", cityState = "", city = "", state = "";

double salary = 0, bonus = 0;

int incorrectRecords = 0;

int dRecords = 0;

int fRecords = 0;

while(sc.hasNextLine())

{

firstname = sc.next();

lastname = sc.next();

strSalary = sc.next();

status = sc.next();

cityState = sc.next();

if(!status.equals("D") && !status.equals("F"))

{

System.out.println("Records is neither D nor F. Skipping this...");

incorrectRecords++;

continue;

}

else if(status.equals("D") || status.equals("F"))

{

char c = ' ';

int i = 0;

for(i=0; i<strSalary.length() && c != '.'; i++)

{

c = strSalary.charAt(i);

if(!Character.isDigit(c))

{

System.out.println("Char at position " + (i+1) + " in salary is not a digit");

incorrectRecords++;

continue;

}

}

if(c == '.')

{

if(i+1 == strSalary.length()-1)

{

if(!Character.isDigit(strSalary.charAt(i)))

{

System.out.println("Char at position " + (i+1) + " in salary is not a digit");

incorrectRecords++;

continue;

}

if(!Character.isDigit(strSalary.charAt(i+1)))

{

System.out.println("Char at position " + (i+1+1) + " in salary is not a digit");

incorrectRecords++;

continue;

}

}

else

{

System.out.println("Period is in the wrong position. Expected at " + (strSalary.length()-3) + " but found at " + (i+1));

continue;

}

}

city = cityState.split(",")[0];

state = cityState.split(",")[1];

salary = Double.parseDouble(strSalary);

if(status.equals("D"))

{

bonus = salary * 0.125;

dRecords++;

pd.write(firstname + " " + lastname + " " + status + " " + salary + " " + bonus + " " + city + " " + state);

}

else

{

bonus = salary * 0.18;

fRecords++;

prf.write(firstname + " " + lastname + " " + status + " " + salary + " " + bonus + " " + city + " " + state);

}

}

}

System.out.println("No of D records : " + dRecords);

System.out.println("No of F records : " + fRecords);

System.out.println("No of incorrect records : " + incorrectRecords);

}

}

When removing a diesel engine from a truck, Technician A says it is OK to disconnect an air con­ditioning hose, but the refriger
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Technician B is right.

Explanation:

Air conditioning refrigerant contains Freon R22 and R410a, which have been linked to environmental damages, including ozone depletion, global warming, and energy-inefficiency.  For environmentally-savvy entities and individuals, there is the modern move to a more environment-friendly refrigerant, known as R-32.   Technician A's advice to vent the refrigerant outside the shop is in bad taste.  He does not seem to be aware of the environmental footprint of such an action.  Venting gas outside, in addition to the environmental damages, is also a waste of resources, and therefore, costly.  This is why Technician B's advice should be preferred.

What is a combination circuit? A combination circuit:
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Combination circuit; The basic strategy for the analysis of combination circuits involves using the meaning of equivalent resistance for parallel branches to transform the combination circuit into a series circuit.

Example:

The use of both series and parallel connections within the same circuit. In this case, light bulbs A and B are connected by parallel connections and light bulbs C and D are connected by series connections. This is an example of a combination circuit.
