Answer:
input power of the geothermal motor will be 0.4166 hP
Explanation:
We have given shaft output = 0.25 hP
hP is known as horse power which is unit of measuring the power of motor
Efficiency of motor is given as efficiency = 60 % = 0.6
We have to fond the heat supply by the fan motor Q
We know that efficiency of any motor is the ratio of shaft power and input power
So
So
So input power of the geothermal motor will be 0.4166 hP

Answer:
Gs = 2.647
e = 0.7986
Explanation:
We know that moist unit weight of soil is given as
where, = moist unit weight of the soil
Gs = specific gravity of the soil
S = degree of saturation
e = void ratio
= unit weight of water = 9.81 kN/m3
From data given we know that:
At 50% saturation,
puttng all value to get Gs value;
Gs - 1.194*e = 1.694 .........(1)
for saturaion 75%, unit weight = 17.71 KN/m3
Gs - 1.055*e = 1.805 .........(2)
solving both equations (1) and (2), we obtained;
Gs = 2.647
e = 0.7986
