Air enters the compressor of a simple gas turbine at 100 kPa, 300 K, with a volumetric flow rate of 5 m3/s. The compressor press

ure ratio is 10 and its isentropic efficiency is 85%. At the inlet to the turbine, the pressure is 950 kPa, and the temperature is 1400 K. The turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 88% and the exit pressure is 100 kPa. On the basis of an air-standard analysis,
a. develop a full accounting of the net exergy increase of the air passing through the gas turbine combustor, in kW.
b. devise and evaluate an exergetic efficiency for the gas turbine cycle.

Answer:

a) 3581.15067 kw

b) 95.4%

Explanation:

<u>Given data:</u>

compressor efficiency = 85%

compressor pressure ratio = 10

Air enters at: flow rate of 5m^3/s , pressure = 100kPa, temperature = 300 K

At turbine inlet : pressure = 950 kPa, temperature = 1400k

Turbine efficiency = 88% , exit pressure of turbine = 100 kPa

A) Develop a full accounting of the exergy increase of the air passing through the gas turbine combustor in kW

Compute the volume percent of graphite, VGr, in a 2.5 wt% C cast iron, assuming that all the carbon exists as the graphite phase

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The volume percent of graphite is 91.906 per cent.

Explanation:

The volume percent of graphite ( $\% V_{Gr}$ ) is determined by the following expression:

$\%V_{Gr} = \frac{V_{Gr}}{V_{Gr}+V_{Fe}} \times 100\,\%$

$\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1+\frac{V_{Gr}}{V_{Fe}} }\times 100\,\%$

Where:

$V_{Gr}$ - Volume occupied by the graphite phase, measured in cubic centimeters.

$V_{Fe}$ - Volume occupied by the ferrite phase, measured in cubic centimeters.

The volume of each phase can be calculated in terms of its density and mass. That is:

$V_{Gr} = \frac{m_{Gr}}{\rho_{Gr}}$

$V_{Fe} = \frac{m_{Fe}}{\rho_{Fe}}$

Where:

$m_{Gr}$ , $m_{Fe}$ - Masses of the graphite and ferrite phases, measured in grams.

$\rho_{Gr}$ , $\rho_{Fe}$ - Densities of the graphite and ferrite phases, measured in grams per cubic centimeter.

Let substitute each volume in the definition of the volume percent of graphite:

$\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1 +\frac{\frac{m_{Gr}}{\rho_{Gr}} }{\frac{m_{Fe}}{\rho_{Fe}} } } \times 100\,\%$

$\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1+\left(\frac{m_{Gr}}{m_{Fe}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{\rho_{Fe}}{\rho_{Gr}} \right)}\times 100\,\%$

Let suppose that 100 grams of cast iron are available, masses of each phase are now determined:

$m_{Gr} = \frac{2.5}{100}\times (100\,g)$

$m_{Gr} = 2.5\,g$

$m_{Fe} = 100\,g - 2.5\,g$

$m_{Fe} = 97.5\,g$

If $m_{Gr} = 2.5\,g$ , $m_{Fe} = 97.5\,g$ , $\rho_{Fe} = 7.9\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}}$ and $\rho_{Gr} = 2.3\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}}$ , the volume percent of graphite is:

$\%V_{Gr} = \frac{1}{1+\left(\frac{2.5\,gr}{97.5\,gr} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{7.9\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}} }{2.3\,\frac{g}{cm^{3}} } \right)} \times 100\,\%$

$\% V_{Gr} = 91.906\,\%$

The volume percent of graphite is 91.906 per cent.

The bulk modulus of a material is 3.5 ✕ 1011 N/m2. What percent fractional change in volume does a piece of this material underg

kiruha [24]

Answer:

percentage change in volume = 0.00285 %

Explanation:

given data

bulk modulus = 3.5 × $10^{11}$ N/m²

bulk stress = $10^{7}$ N/m²

solution

we will apply here bulk modulus formula that is

bulk modulus = $\frac{bulk\ stress}{bulk\ strain}$ ...............1

put here value and we get

3.5 × $10^{11}$ = $\frac{10^7}{bulk\ strain}$

solve it we get

bulk strain = 2.8571 × $10^{-5}$

and

bulk strain = $\frac{change\ volume}{original\ volume}$

so that percentage change in volume is = 2.8571 × $10^{-5}$ × 100

percentage change in volume = 0.00285 %

Match the military operation to the category of satellite that would perform it.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

1. Location of enemy ground troops - EARTH OBSERVING.

Using earth observing satellite imagery, the military can observe vast expanses of land and in so doing, find the location of enemy ground troops.

2. Routine reconnaissance of an unfamiliar climate - WEATHER

In other to find out more about the climate of an area, a weather satellite can be used to observe the areas and its changing weather patterns.

3. Analyze waterways in an unfamiliar location - NAVIGATION

Using navigation satellites, navigation conduits such as roads and waterways can be observed.

4. Provide warning of an attack - COMMUNICATION.

Communications satellites enable people to communicate over great distances and so can be used by the military to warn of an impending attack.
