Answer:

The engine consists of a fixed cylinder and a moving piston. The expanding combustion gases push the piston, which in turn rotates the crankshaft. Ultimately, through a system of gears in the power-train, this motion drives the vehicle's wheels.

A 200-mm-long strip of metal is stretched in two steps, first to 300 mm and then to 400 mm. Show that the total true strain is t

Neko [114]

Explanation:

For true Strain:

step 1:

E true = Ln(1 + 0.5 ) = 0.40

Step 2:

E true = Ln(1 + 0.33 ) = 0.29

By single step process:

E true = Ln(1 + 1 ) = 0.69

total strain of step process = 0.40 + 0.29 = 0.69 units

SO TRUE STRAIN IS ADDITIVE.

A 0.25in diameter steel rod BC is securely attached between two identical 1in diameter copper rods (AB and CD). Find the torque

Helen [10]

Answer:

Tmax= 46.0 lb-in

Explanation:

Given:

- The diameter of the steel rod BC d1 = 0.25 in

- The diameter of the copper rod AB and CD d2 = 1 in

- Allowable shear stress of steel τ_s = 15ksi

- Allowable shear stress of copper τ_c = 12ksi

Find:

Find the torque T_max

Solution:

- The relation of allowable shear stress is given by:

τ = 16*T / pi*d^3

T = τ*pi*d^3 / 16

- Design Torque T for Copper rod:

T_c = τ_c*pi*d_c^3 / 16

T_c = 12*1000*pi*1^3 / 16

T_c = 2356.2 lb.in

- Design Torque T for Steel rod:

T_s = τ_s*pi*d_s^3 / 16

T_s = 15*1000*pi*0.25^3 / 16

T_s = 46.02 lb.in

- The design torque must conform to the allowable shear stress for both copper and steel. The maximum allowable would be:

T = min ( 2356.2 , 46.02 )

T = 46.02 lb-in

A heat pump with an ideal compressor operates between 0.2 MPa and 1 MPa. Refrigerant R134a flows through the system at a rate of

solmaris [256]

Answer:

The mass flow rate of refrigerant is 0.352 kg/s

Explanation:

Considering the cycle of an ideal heat pump, provided in the attachment, we first find enthalpy at state B and D. For that purpose, we use property tables of refrigerant R134a:

At State A:

From table, we see the enthalpy and entropy value of saturated vapor at 0.2 MPa. Therefore:

ha = 244.5 KJ/kg

Sa = 0.93788 KJ/kg.k

At State B:

Since, the process from state A to B is isentropic. Therefore,

Sb = Sa = 0.93788 KJ/Kg

From table, we see the enthalpy value of super heated vapor at 1 MPa and Sb. Therefore:

hb = 256.85 KJ/kg (By interpolation)

At State C:

From table, we see the enthalpy and entropy value of saturated liquid at 1 MPa. Therefore:

hc = 107.34 KJ/kg

Now, from the diagram it is very clear that:

Heat Loss = m(hb = hc)

m = (Heat Loss)/(hb - hc)

where,

m = mass flow rate = ?

Heat Loss = (180,000 Btu/hr)(1.05506 KJ/1 Btu)(1 hr/3600 sec)

Heat Loss = 52.753 KW

Therefore,

m = (52.753 KJ/s)/(256.85 KJ/kg - 107.34 KJ/kg)

m = 0.352 kg/s

How does heat conduction differ from convection?

Helga [31]

Explanation:

Conduction:

Heat transfer in the conduction occurs due to movement of molecule or we can say that due to movement of electrons in the two end of same the body. Generally, phenomenon of conduction happens in the case of solid . In conduction heat transfer takes places due to direct contact of two bodies.

Convection:

In convection heat transfer of fluid takes place due to density difference .In simple words we can say that heat transfer occur due to motion of fluid.
