A jet aircraft is in level flight at an altitude of 30,000 ft with an airspeed of 500 ft/s. The aircraft has a gross weight of 1

9,815 lb, a wingspan of 53.3 ft, and an average chord length of 6 ft. The Oswald efficiency factor is 0.81 and the zero-lift drag coefficient is equal to 0.02. The jet has two turbofan engines, each producing a maximum thrust of 3,650 lb at sea level.
Required:
a. Create a plot of the drag polar for this aircraft for CL from 0 to 5. Plot CL on the vertical axis, CD on the horizontal axis, and do not include negative CL values.
b. What is the total drag coefficient at the flight condition described above?
c. What is the required thrust for level flight at this altitude in lb?
d. If the pilot runs the engines at maximum thrust, what is the instantaneous rate of climb at this altitude and velocity?

Answer:

a) attached below

b) 0.0337

c) 2730.206 Ib

d) 2320.338 ft/min

Explanation:

<u>a) Plot of the drag polar for this aircraft </u>

first we will calculate :

Wing area (s) = Wing span (b) * Average chord length(c)

                       = 53.3 * 6 = 319.8 ft^2

Aspect ratio =  b^2 / s = 8.883

K = 1 / \pieAR = 1 /

Drag polar ( Cd ) = 0.02 + 0.044 C^2L

attached below is a plot of the drag polar

<u />

Attached below is the detailed solution of the remaining part of the question

A fatigue test was conducted in which the mean stress was 90 MPa (13050 psi), and the stress amplitude was 190 MPa (27560 psi).
Gwar [14]

Answer:

a) 280MPa

b) -100MPa

c) -0.35

d) 380 MPa

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

mean stress \sigma_m = 90MPa

stress amplitude \sigma_a = 190MPa

a) \sigma_m =\frac{\sigma_max+\sigma_min}{2}

    90 =\frac{\sigma_{max}+\sigma_{min}}{2} --------------1

\sigma_a =\frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2}

   190 = \frac{\sigma_{max}-\sigma_{min}}{2} -----------2

solving 1 and 2 equation we get

\sigma_{max} = 280MPa

b) \sigma_{min} = - 100MPa

c)

stress ratio=\frac{\sigma_{min}}{\sigma_{max}}

=\frac{-100}{280} = -0.35

d)magnitude of stress range

                      =(\sigma_{max} -\sigma_{min})

                       = 280 -(-100) = 380 MPa

How to connect the wind turbines to the grid? Give advantages and disadvantages to your answer.​
taurus [48]

Answer:

Electricity from the wind turbine generator travels to a transmission substation where it is converted into extremely high voltage, between 155,000 and 765,000 volts, for long distance transmission on the transmission grid. This grid comprises a series of power lines that connect the power sources to demand centers.The advantages of wind energy are more apparent than the disadvantages. The main advantages include an unlimited, free, renewable resource (the wind itself), economic value, maintenance cost, and placement of wind harvesting facilities.

Calculate the diameter of pneumatic cylinder to drive a mechanism. The force exerted by the mechanism is 80 N. The return force
sashaice [31]

Answer:

14.27 mm

Explanation:

Force = 80 Newton

Pressure exerted = 5 bar = 5×10⁵ Pa

Pressure exerted = Force/Area

Area = Force/Pressure

Area=\frac{80}{500000}\\\Rightarrow Area=0.00016\ m^2

Area of the cylinder=πd²/4

\Rightarrow \frac{\pi}{4}d^2=0.00016\\\Rightarrow d^2=\frac{4\times 0.00016}{\pi}\\\Rightarrow d^2=0.0002037\\\Rightarrow d=0.01427\ m

Hence diameter of cylinder 14.27 mm
