Refrigerant-22 absorbs heat from a cooled space at 50°F as it flows through an evaporator of a refrigeration system. R-22 enters

the evaporator at 10°F at a rate of 0.08 lbm/s with a quality of 0.3 and leaves as a saturated vapor at the same pressure. Determine:
a. The rate of cooling provided, in Btu/h.

b. The rate of exergy destruction in the evaporator.

c. The second-law efficiency of the evaporator.

Take T0 = 77°F. The properties of R-22 at the inlet and exit of the evaporator are: h1 = 107.5 Btu/lbm, s1 = 0.2851 Btu/lbm·R, h2 = 172.1 Btu/ lbm, s^2 = 0.4225 Btu/lbm·R.

Answer:

a) the rate of cooling provided is 18604.8 Btu/h

b) the rate of exergy destruction in the evaporator is 0.46 Btu/Ibm

c) the second-law efficiency of the evaporator is 37.39%

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature of sink TL = 50°F = 510 R

Temperature at evaporator inlet TI = 10°F = 470 R

mass flow rate m" = 0.08 lbm/s

quality of refrigerant at evaporator inlet x1 = 0.3

quality of refrigerant at evaporator exit x2 = 1.0

T₀ = 77°F = 537 R

h1 = 107.5 Btu/lbm

s1 = 0.2851 Btu/lbm·R,

h2 = 172.1 Btu/ lbm,

s2 = 0.4225 Btu/lbm·R.

a) rate of cooling provided, in Btu/h.

QL = m"( h2 - h1)

we substitute

QL = 0.08( 172.1 - 107.5

= 0.08 × 64.6

= 5.168 Btu/s

we convert to Btu/h

5.168 × 60 × 60

QL = 18604.8 Btu/h

Therefore the rate of cooling provided is 18604.8 Btu/h

b) The rate of exergy destruction in the evaporator

Entropy generation can be expressed as;

S_gen = m"(s2 - s1) - QL/TL

so we substitute

S_gen = 0.08( 0.4225 - 0.2851 ) - 5.168 / 510

= 0.010992 - 0.01013

S_gen = 0.00086 Btu/ibm.R

now the energy destroyed expressed as;

X_dest = T₀ × S_gen

so

X_dest = 537 × 0.00086

X_dest = 0.46 Btu/Ibm

Therefore the rate of exergy destruction in the evaporator is 0.46 Btu/Ibm

c) The second-law efficiency of the evaporator.

Energy expended is expressed as;

X_exp = m"(h1 - h2) - m"T₀(s1 - s2)

we substitute

= 0.08( 107.5 - 172.1 ) - [0.08 × 537 ( 0.2851 - 0.4225 )

= -5.168 - [ - 5.9027)

= -5.168 + 5.9027

= 0.7347 Btu/s

Now second law efficiency is expressed as;

nH = 1 - (X_dest / X_esp)

= 1 - ( 0.46 / 0.7347 )

= 1 - 0.6261

= 0.3739

nH = 37.39%

Therefore the second-law efficiency of the evaporator is 37.39%

If the 1550-lb boom AB, the 190-lb cage BCD, and the 169-lb man have centers of gravity located at points G1, G2 and G3, respect

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

hello the required diagram is missing attached to the answer is the required diagram

7.9954 kip.ft

Explanation:

AB = 1550-Ib ( weight acting on AB )

BCD = 190 - Ib ( weight of cage )

169-Ib = weight of man inside cage

Attached is the free hand diagram of the question

calculate distance $x!$

= cos 75⁰ = $\frac{x^!}{10ft}$

$x! = 10 * cos 75^{o}$ = 2.59 ft

calculate distance x

= cos 75⁰ = $\frac{x}{30ft}$

x = 30 * cos 75⁰ = 7.765 ft

The resultant moment produced by all the weights about point A

∑ Ma = 0

Ma = 1550 * $x!$ + 190 ( x + 2.5 ) + 169 ( x + 2.5 + 1.75 )

Ma = 1550 * 2.59 + 190 ( 7.765 + 2.5 ) + 169 ( 7.765 + 2.5 + 1.75 )

= 4014.5 + 1950.35 + 2030.535

= 7995.385 ft. Ib ≈ 7.9954 kip.ft

Examples of reciprocating motion in daily life

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Examples of reciprocating motion in daily life are;

1) The needles of a sewing machine

2) Electric powered reciprocating saw blade

3) The motion of a manual tire pump

Explanation:

A reciprocating motion is a motion that consists of motion of a part in an upward and downwards $(\updownarrow)$ or in a backward and forward (↔) direction repetitively

Examples of reciprocating motion in daily life includes the reciprocating motion of the needles of a sewing machine and the reciprocating motion of the reciprocating saw and the motion of a manual tire pump

In a sewing machine, a crank shaft in between a wheel and the needle transforms the rotary motion of the wheel into reciprocating motion of the needle.

A 03-series cylindrical roller bearing with inner ring rotating is required for an application in which the life requirement is

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

$\mathbf{C_{10} = 137.611 \ kN}$

Explanation:

From the information given:

Life requirement = 40 kh = 40 $40 \times 10^{3} \ h$

Speed (N) = 520 rev/min

Reliability goal $(R_D)$ = 0.9

Radial load $(F_D)$ = 2600 lbf

To find C10 value by using the formula:

$C_{10}=F_D\times \pmatrix \dfrac{x_D}{x_o +(\theta-x_o) \bigg(In(\dfrac{1}{R_o}) \bigg)^{\dfrac{1}{b}}} \end {pmatrix} ^{^{^{\dfrac{1}{a}}$

where;

$x_D = \text{bearing life in million revolution} \\ \\ x_D = \dfrac{60 \times L_h \times N}{10^6} \\ \\ x_D = \dfrac{60 \times 40 \times 10^3 \times 520}{10^6}\\ \\ x_D = 1248 \text{ million revolutions}$

$\text{The cyclindrical roller bearing (a)}= \dfrac{10}{3}$

The Weibull parameters include:

$x_o = 0.02$

$(\theta - x_o) = 4.439$

$b= 1.483$

∴

Using the above formula:

$C_{10}=1.4\times 2600 \times \pmatrix \dfrac{1248}{0.02+(4.439) \bigg(In(\dfrac{1}{0.9}) \bigg)^{\dfrac{1}{1.483}}} \end {pmatrix} ^{^{^{\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{10}{3}}}$

$C_{10}=3640 \times \pmatrix \dfrac{1248}{0.02+(4.439) \bigg(In(\dfrac{1}{0.9}) \bigg)^{\dfrac{1}{1.483}}} \end {pmatrix} ^{^{^{\dfrac{3}{10}}$

$C_{10} = 3640 \times \bigg[\dfrac{1248}{0.9933481582}\bigg]^{\dfrac{3}{10}}$

$C_{10} = 30962.449 \ lbf$

Recall that:

1 kN = 225 lbf

∴

$C_{10} = \dfrac{30962.449}{225}$

$\mathbf{C_{10} = 137.611 \ kN}$
