Discuss typical advantages and disadvantages of an irrigation system?

1 answer:

4 0

Advantages include low costs and minimal labor.Water stays in the root zone, and foliage stays dry. Drawbacks to surface irrigation include potential overwatering and wasteful runoff.

Define Variables and Use List methods to do the following

Explanation:

#Conjoins two lists together

all_names = male_names.union(female_names)

#Finds the names that appear in both lists, just returns those

neutral_names = male_names.intersection(female_names)

#Returns names that are NOT in both lists

specific_names = male_names.symmetric_difference(female_names)

Water at 200C flows through a pipe of 10 mm diameter pipe at 1 m/s. Is the flow Turbulent ? a. Yes b. No

Degger [83]

Answer:

Yes, the flow is turbulent.

Explanation:

Reynolds number gives the nature of flow. If he Reynolds number is less than 2000 then the flow is laminar else turbulent.

Given:

Diameter of pipe is 10mm.

Velocity of the pipe is 1m/s.

Temperature of water is 200°C.

The kinematic viscosity at temperature 200°C is $1.557\times10^{-7}$ m2/s.

Calculation:

Step1

Expression for Reynolds number is given as follows:

$Re=\frac{vd}{\nu}$

Here, v is velocity, $\nu$ is kinematic viscosity, d is diameter and Re is Reynolds number.

Substitute the values in the above equation as follows:

$Re=\frac{vd}{\nu}$

$Re=\frac{1\times(10mm)(\frac{1m}{1000mm})}{1.557\times10^{-7}}$

Re=64226.07579

Thus, the Reynolds number is 64226.07579. This is greater than 2000.

Hence, the given flow is turbulent flow.

Obtaining data from property tables

State 1:

$\left.\begin{array}{l}P_{1}=1.25 \text { bar } \\\text { Sat - vapour }\end{array}\right\} \begin{array}{l}h_{1}=234.45 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg} \\S_{1}=0.9346 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kgk}\end{array}$

State 2:

$\left.\begin{array}{l}P_{2}=5 \text { bor } \\S_{2}=S_{1}\end{array}\right\} \quad h_{2}=262.78 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg}$

State 3:

$\left.\begin{array}{l}P_{3}=5 \text { bar } \\\text { Sat }-4 q\end{array}\right\} h_{3}=71-33 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg}$

State 4:

Throttling process $h_{4}=h_{3}=71.33 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{kg}$

(a)

Magnitude of compressor power input

$\dot{w}_{c}=\dot{m}\left(h_{2}-h_{1}\right)=\left(8 \cdot 5 \frac{\mathrm{kg}}{\min } \times \frac{1 \mathrm{min}}{\csc }\right)(262.78-234 \cdot 45)\frac{kj}{kg}$

$w_{c}=4 \cdot 013 \mathrm{kw}$

(b)

Refrigerator capacity

$Q_{i n}=\dot{m}\left(h_{1}-h_{4}\right)=\left(\frac{g \cdot s}{60} k_{0} / s\right) \times(234 \cdot 45-71 \cdot 33) \frac{k J}{k_{8}}$

$Q_{i n}=23 \cdot 108 \mathrm{kW}\\1 ton of retregiration =3.51 k \omega$

$\ Q_{in} =6 \cdot 583 \text { tons }$

(c)

Cop:

$\beta=\frac{\left(h_{1}-h_{4}\right)}{\left(h_{2}-h_{1}\right)}=\frac{Q_{i n}}{\omega_{c}}=\frac{23 \cdot 108}{4 \cdot 013}$

$\beta=5 \cdot 758$

5. One of the major road blocks for direct DC power in residences is the ___. A) generation of DC B) lack of standardization C)

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

D) quantity of components required for this type of system

Explanation:

Electricity can be transmitted using the alternating and direct currents. The alternating current is one in which the flow of the current diverts at certain time intervals whereas, the direct current is one in which there is a constant one-directional flow of current. The DC is used in batteries and solar panels. Residential areas and business places make use of the AC current.

One of the several reasons why the DC is not used in homes is because unlike the AC it is not easy to build and sustain. Moreso, it has more components compared to the AC. For example, its motor consists of brushes and commutators . The components, example, switches are also large compared to the AC components.
