Answer:

A root-type supercharger works similar to that of an air pump. It pumps air into the intake of the engine. Within the engine cylinder, the compression of the air-fuel mixture takes place. A centrifugal supercharger, works like a turbo, compresses the air in it and then delivers it to the engine.

An inductor has a 50.0-Ω reactance when connected to a 60.0-Hz source. The inductor is removed and then connected to a 45.0-Hz s

nignag [31]

Given:

$X_{L} = 50.0 \ohm$

frequency, f = 60.0 Hz

frequency, f' = 45.0 Hz

$V_rms} = 85.0 V$

Solution:

To calculate max current in inductor, $I_{L(max)$ :

At f = 60.0 Hz

$X_{L} = 2\pi fL$

$50.0 = 2\pi\times 60.0\times L$

L = 0.1326 H

Now, reactance $X_{L}$ at f' = 45.0 Hz:

$X'_{L} = 2\pi f'L$

$X'_{L} = 2\pi\times 45.0\times 0.13263 = 37.5\ohm$

Now, $I_{L(max)$ is given by:

$I_{L(max) = \sqrt {\frac{2V_{rms}}{X'_{L}}}$

$I_{L(max) = \sqrt {\frac{2\times 85.0}{37.5}} = 2.13 A$

Therefore, max current in the inductor, $I_{L(max)$ = 2.13 A

Nataly [62]

Answer:

1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW

Explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

P₁ = 8 MPa

T₁ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)

h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg

P₂ = 2 MPa

T₂ = 350°C

From which we have;

s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)

h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg

P₃ = 2 MPa

T₃ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)

h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg

P₄ = 30 KPa

T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)

From which we have;

h₄ = $h_{f4}$ + x₄× $h_{fg}$ = 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg

s₄ = $s_{f4}$ + x₄× $s_{fg}$ = 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)

The exergy of destruction, $\dot X_{dest}$ , is given as follows;

$\dot X_{dest}$ = T₀ × $\dot S_{gen}$ = T₀ × $\dot m$ × (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)

$\dot X_{dest}$ = T₀ × $\dot W$ ×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)

∴ $\dot X_{dest}$ = 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138 - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW

The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output, $\dot W_{rev}$ = $\dot W_{}$ + $\dot X_{dest}$ ≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW

The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.

Answer:

Explanation:

Individual footings are the commonest, and they are often used if the load of the building is borne by columns. Typically, every column will have an own footing. The footing is usually only a rectangular or square pad of concrete on which the column is erected
