A binary geothermal power operates on the simple Rankine cycle with isobutane as the working fluid. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine, the net power output, and the thermal efficiency of the cycle are to be determined
Assumptions :
1. Steady operating conditions exist.
2. Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.
Properties: The specific heat of geothermal water ( 
[) is taken to be 4.18 kJ/kg.ºC.
Analysis (a) We need properties of isobutane, we can obtain the properties from EES.
a. Turbine
P
=
b. Pump
c. 
It is study of the relationships between heat, temprature, work and energy
Answer: 0.95 inches
Explanation:
A direct load on a column is considered or referred to as an axial compressive load. A direct concentric load is considered axial. If the load is off center it is termed eccentric and is no longer axially applied.
The length= 64 inches
Ends are fixed Le= 64/2 = 32 inches
Factor Of Safety (FOS) = 3. 0
E= 10.6× 10^6 ps
σy= 4000ps
The square cross-section= ia^4/12
PE= π^2EI/Le^2
6500= 3.142^2 × 10^6 × a^4/12×32^2
a^4= 0.81 => a=0.81 inches => a=0.95 inches
Given σy= 4000ps
σallowable= σy/3= 40000/3= 13333. 33psi
Load acting= 6500
Area= a^2= 0.95 ×0.95= 0.9025
σactual=6500/0.9025
σ actual < σallowable
The dimension a= 0.95 inches
Hi! I believe the answer is 2 meters(:
Answer:
Ceramics
Explanation:
Ceramics are used to make cooktops if you look it up and according to my engineering and design class ceramics have high heat resistance and melting points, and make good electrical insulators.
