Water flows in a pipeline. At a point in the line where the diameter is 7 in., the velocity is 12 fps and the pressure is 50 psi

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a) P₂ = 3219.11 lbf / ft² , b) P₂ = 721.91 lbf / ft² , c) P₂ = 5707.31 lbf / ft²

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the fluid mechanics equations, let's start with the continuity equation, index 1 is for the starting point and index 2 for the end point of the reduction

A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

v₂ = v₁ A₁ / A₂

The area of a circle is

A = π r² = π/4 d²

v₂ = v₁ (d₁ / d₂)²

Let's calculate

v₂ = 12 (7/3)²

v₂ = 65 feet / s

Now let's use Bernoulli's equation

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

P₁ - P₂ = ρ g (y₂ –y₁) + ½ ρ (v₂² - v₁²)

Case 1. The pipe is horizontal, so

y₁ = y₂

P₁ - P₂ = ½ ρ (v₂² –v₁²)

P₂ = P₁ - ½ ρ (v₂² –v₁²)

ρ = 62.43 lbf / ft³

P₁ = 50 psi (144 lbf/ ft² / psi) = 7200 lbf / ft²

P₂ = 7200 - ½ 62.43 / 32 (65² -12²)

P₂ = 7200 - 3980.89

P₂ = 3219.11 lbf / ft²

Case 2 vertical pipe with water flow up

y₂ –y₁ = 40 ft

P₁ - P₂ = ρ g (y₂ –y₁) + ½ rho (v₂² - v₁²)

7200 - P₂ = 62.43 (40) + ½ 62.43 / 32 (65 2 - 12 2) =

P₂ = 7200 - 2497.2 - 3980.89

P₂ = 721.91 lbf / ft²

Case 3. Vertical water pipe flows down

y₂ –y₁ = -40

P₂ = 7200 + 2497.2 - 3980.89

P₂ = 5707.31 lbf / ft²

A parallel circuit with two branches and an 18 volt battery. Resistor #1 on the first branch has a value of 220 ohms and resisto

likoan [24]

Answer:

2.455 W

Explanation:

The power dissipated in each branch is ...

P = V^2/R

So, the branch powers are ...

branch 1: 18^2/220 ≈ 1.473 W

branch 2: 18^2/330 ≈ 0.982 W

Total power is ...

1.473 W + 0.982 W = 2.455 W

A steam power plant operates on a simple ideal Rankine cycle between the pressure limits of 3000 kPa and 25 kPa. The temperature

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

a)31%

b)34MW

Explanation:

A rankine cycle is a generation cycle using water as a working fluid, when heat enters the boiler the water undergoes a series of changes in state and energy until generating power through the turbine.

This cycle is composed of four main components, the boiler, the pump, the turbine and the condenser as shown in the attached image

To solve any problem regarding the rankine cycle, enthalpies in all states must be calculated using the thermodynamic tables and taking into account the following.

• The pressure of state 1 and 4 are equal

• The pressure of state 2 and 3 are equal

• State 1 is superheated steam

• State 2 is in saturation state

• State 3 is saturated liquid at the lowest pressure

• State 4 is equal to state 3 because the work of the pump is negligible.

Once all enthalpies are found, the following equations are used using the first law of thermodynamics

Wout = m (h1-h2)

Qin = m (h1-h4)

Win = m (h4-h3)

Qout = m (h2-h1)

The efficiency is calculated as the power obtained on the heat that enters
