Steam enters a turbine at 120 bar, 508oC. At the exit, the pressure and quality are 50 kPa and 0.912, respectively. Determine th
Archy [21]

Answer:

The turbine produces <u>955.53 KW</u> power.

Explanation:

Taking the turbine as a system. Applying Law of Conservation of Energy:

m(h₁ - h₂) - Heat Loss = P

where,

m = mass flow rate of steam = 1.31 kg/s

h₁ = enthalpy at state 1 (120 bar and 508°C)

h₂ = enthalpy at state 2 (50 KPa and x = 0.912)

Heat Loss = 225 KW

P = Power generated by turbine = ?

First, we find h₁ from super steam tables:

At,

T = 508°C

P = 120 bar = 12000 KPa = 12 MPa

we find that steam is in super-heated state with enthalpy:

Due to unavailibility of values in chart we approximate the state to 500° C and 12.5 MPa:

h₁ = 3343.6 KJ/kg

Now, for state 2, we have:

P = 50 KPa and x = 0.912

From saturated steam table:

h₂ = hf₂ + x(hfg₂) = 340.54 KJ/kg + (0.912)(2304.7 KJ/kg)

h₂ = 2442.4 KJ/kg

Now, using values in the conservation equation:

(1.31 kg/s)(3343.6 KJ/kg - 2442.4 KJ/kg) - 225 KW = P

<u>P = 955.53 KW</u>

An experiment to determine the convection coefficient associated with airflow over the surface of a thick stainless steel castin
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

h = 375 KW/m^2K

Explanation:

Given:

Thermo-couple distances: L_1 = 10 mm , L_2 = 20 mm

steel thermal conductivity k = 15 W / mK

Thermo-couple temperature measurements: T_1 = 50 C , T_2 = 40 C

Air Temp T_∞ = 100 C

Assuming there are no other energy sources, energy balance equation is:

                                               E_in = E_out

                                        q"_cond = q"_conv

Since, its a case 1-D steady state conduction, the total heat transfer rate can be found from Fourier's Law for surfaces 1 and 2

q"_cond = k * (T_1 - T_2) / (L_2 - L_1) = 15 * (50 - 40) / (0.02 - 0.01)

=15KW/m^2

Assuming SS is solid, temperature at the surface exposed to air will be 60 C since its gradient is linear in the case of conduction, and there are two temperatures given in the problem. Convection coefficient can be found from Newton's Law of cooling:

q"_conv = h * ( T_∞  - T_s ) ----> h = q"_conv / ( T_∞  - T_s )

                                                   h = 15000 W / (100 - 60 ) C = 375 KW/m^2K

A hydraulic cylinder is to be used to move a workpiece in a manufacturing operation through a distance of 50 mm in 10 s. A force
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The answer to this question is 1273885.3 ∅

Explanation:

<em>The first step is to determine the required  hydraulic flow rate liquid if working pressure and  if a cylinder with a piston diameter of 100 mm is available.</em>

<em>Given that,</em>

<em>The distance = 50mm</em>

<em>The time t =10 seconds</em>

<em>The force F = 10kN</em>

<em>The piston diameter is = 100mm</em>

<em>The pressure = F/A</em>

<em> 10 * 10^3/Δ/Δ </em>

<em> P = 1273885.3503 pa</em>

<em>Then</em>

<em>Power = work/time  = Force * distance /time</em>

<em> = 10 * 1000 * 0.050/10</em>

<em>which is  =50 watt</em>

<em>Power =∅ΔP</em>

<em>50 = 1273885.3 ∅</em>

How to draw the output voltage waveform rectifier
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Half-wave rectifier converts an AC signal into a DC signal. It's called a half-wave because it only rectify the positive part of an AC signal.

AC Signal = An electrical signal that alternates between positive and negative voltage.

DC Signal = An electrical signal that only has positive voltage.

Rectify = A fancy word for converting something.

Adding a capacitor helps the positive part of the signal stay on longer. This work because the capacitor stores energy kinda like a battery. During the negative part of the AC signal, the energy stored in the capacitor will be drained and used, then the cycle repeats.

The load resistor is just there to prevent a short circuit from happening.

Who can use NIST resources?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Federal agencies

Explanation:

NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) also called between 1901 and 1988 National Bureau of Standards (NBS), it is an agency of the Technology Administration of the United States Department of Commerce. The mission of this institute is to promote innovation and industrial competition in the United States through advances in metrology, standards and technology in ways that improve economic stability and quality of life.

As part of this mission, NIST scientists and engineers continually refine the science of measurement (metrology) by creating precise engineering and manufacturing required for most current technological advances. They are also directly involved in the development and testing of standards made by the private sector and government agencies. The NIST was originally called the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), a name it had from 1901 to 1988. The progress and technological innovation of the United States depends on the abilities of the NIST, especially if we talk about four areas: biotechnology , nanotechnology, information technologies and advanced manufacturing.
