An ideal reheat Rankine cycle with water as the working fluid operates the boiler at 15,000 kPa, the reheater at 2000 kPa, and t
solniwko [45]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

First find the enthalpies h₁, h₂, h₃, h₄, h₅, and h₆.

Find h₁:

Using Saturated Water Table and given pressure p₁ = 100 kPa

h₁ = 417.5 kJ/kg

Find h₂:

In order to find h₂, add the w_{p} to h₁, where  w_{p}  is the work done by pump and h₁ is the enthalpy computed above h₁ = 417.5 kJ/kg.

But first we need to compute  w_{p} To computer  

Pressures:

p₁ = 100 kPa

p₂ = 15,000 kPa

and

Using saturated water pressure table, the volume of water v_{f} = 1.0432

Dividing 1.0432/1000 gives us:

Volume of water = v₁ =  0.001043 m³/kg

Compute the value of h₂:

h₂ = h₁ + v₁ (p₂ - p₁)

    = 417.5 kJ/kg + 0.001043 m³/kg ( 15,000 kPa - 100 kPa)

    =  417.5 + 0.001043 (14900)

    = 417.5 + 15.5407

    = 433.04 kJ/kg

Find h₃  

Using steam table:

At pressure p₃ = 15000 kPa

and Temperature = T₃ = 450°C

Then h₃ = 3159 kJ/kg

The entropy s₃ = 6.14 kJ/ kg K

Find h₄

Since entropy s₃ is equal to s₄ So

s₄ = 6.14 kJ/kgK

To compute h₄

s₄ = s_{f} + x_{4} s_{fg}

x_{4} = s_{4} -s_{f} /s_{fg}

x_{4} = 6.14 -  2.45 / 3.89

x_{4}   = 0.9497

The enthalpy h₄:

h₄ = h_{f} +x_{4} h_{fg}

    = 908.4 + 0.9497(1889.8)

    =  908.4 + 1794.7430

    = 2703 kJ/kg

This can simply be computed using the software for steam tables online. Just use the entropy s₃ = 6.14 kJ/ kg K and pressure p₄ = 2000 kPa

Find h₅

Using steam table:

At pressure p₅ = 2000 kPa

and Temperature = T₅ = 450°C

Then h₅  = 3358 kJ/kg

Find h₆:

Since the entropy s₅ = 7.286 kJ/kgK is equal s₆ to  So

s₆ = 7.286 kJ/kgK = 7.29 kJ/kgK

To compute h₆

s₆ = s_{f} + x_{6} s_{fg}

x_{6} = s_{6} -s_{f} /s_{fg}

x_{6} = 7.29 - 1.3028 / 6.0562

x_{6}   = 0.988

The enthalpy h₆:

h₆ = h_{f} +x_{6} h_{fg}

    = 417.51 + 0.988 (2257.5)

    = 417.51 + 2230.41

  h₆ =  2648 kJ/kg

This can simply be computed using the software for steam tables online. Just use the entropy s₅ = 7.286 kJ/kgK and pressure p₅ = 2000 kPa

Compute power used by pump:

P_{p} is found by using:

mass flow rate = m =  1.74 kg/s

Volume of water = v₁ =  0.001043 m³/kg

p₁ = 100 kPa

p₂ = 15,000 kPa

P_{p}  = ( m ) ( v₁ ) ( p₂ - p₁ )

     = (1.74 kg/s) (0.001043 m³/kg) (15,000 kPa - 100 kPa)

     = (1.74 kg/s) (0.001043 m³/kg) (14900)

     = 27.04

P_{p} = 27 kW

Compute heat added q_{a} and heat rejected q_{r}  from boiler using computed enthalpies:

q_{a} = ( h₃ - h₂ ) + ( h₅ - h₄ )

      = ( 3159 kJ/kg - 433.04 kJ/kg ) + ( 3358 kJ/kg - 2703 kJ/kg )

      = 2726 + 655

      = 3381  kJ/kg

q_{r} =  h₆ - h₁

  = 2648 kJ/kg - 417.5 kJ/kg

  = 2232 kJ/kg

Compute net work

W_{net} = q_{a} - q_{r}

       = 3381  kJ/kg - 2232 kJ/kg

       = 1150 kJ/kg

Compute power produced by the cycle

mass flow rate = m =  1.74 kg/s

W_{net} = 1150 kJ/kg

P = m * W_{net}

  = 1.74 kg/s * 1150 kJ/kg

  = 2001 kW

Compute rate of heat transfer in the reheater

Q = m * ( h₅ - h₄ )

   =  1.74 kg/s * 655

   =  1140 kW

Compute Thermal efficiency of this system

μ_{t} = 1 - q_{r} /  q_{a}

   = 1 - 2232 kJ/kg / 3381  kJ/kg

   = 1 - 0.6601

   = 0.34

   = 34%

Which of the following is a possible unit of ultimate tensile strength?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Newton per square meter (N/m2)

Explanation:

Required

Unit of ultimate tensile strength

Ultimate tensile strength (U) is calculated using:

U = \frac{Ultimate\ Force}{Area}

The units of force is N (Newton) and the unit of Area is m^2

So, we have:

U = \frac{N}{m^2}

or

U = N/m^2

<em>Hence: (c) is correct</em>

About what thickness of aluminum is needed to stop a beam of (a) 2.5-MeV electrons, (b) 2.5-MeV protons, and (c) 10-MeV alpha pa
Nana76 [90]

The thickness of aluminium needed to stop the beam electrons, protons and alpha particles at the given dfferent kinetic energies is 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.

<h3>Thickness of the aluminum</h3>

The thickness of the aluminum can be determined using from distance of closest approach of the particle.

K.E = \frac{2KZe^2}{r}

where;

  • Z is the atomic number of aluminium  = 13
  • e is charge
  • r is distance of closest approach = thickness of aluminium
  • k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²
<h3>For 2.5 MeV electrons</h3>

r = \frac{2KZe^2}{K.E} \\\\r = \frac{2 \times 9\times 10^9 \times 13\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{2.5 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \\\\r = 1.5 \times 10^{-14} \ m

<h3>For 2.5 MeV protons</h3>

Since the magnitude of charge of electron and proton is the same, at equal kinetic energy, the thickness will be same. r = 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.

<h3>For 10 MeV alpha-particles</h3>

Charge of alpah particle = 2e

r = \frac{2KZe^2}{K.E} \\\\r = \frac{2 \times 9\times 10^9 \times 13\times (2 \times 1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{10 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \\\\r = 1.5 \times 10^{-14} \ m

Thus, the thickness of aluminium needed to stop the beam electrons, protons and alpha particles at the given dfferent kinetic energies is 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.

love history [14]

Answer:

d) Binary

Explanation:

Binary search is a search algorithm that finds the position of a value in an ordered array. It compares the value with the element in the middle of the array, if they are not equal, half in which the value cannot be eliminated and the search continues in the remaining half until the value is found.
