A steam power plant is represented as a heat engine operating between two thermal reservoirs at 800 K and 300 K. The temperature

of the steam in the boiler is 550 K and the temperature of the saturated water in the condenser is 330 K. The rates of heat transfer in the boiler and condenser are 4 MW and 2 MW, respectively. Please answer the following.
Required:
a. Represent the devices present in the heat engine and include their name along with the data given in the problem.
b. If this steam power plant were to operate as a reversible heat engine, with the boiler and condenser temperatures, what would be its thermal efficiency?
c. Use your result from part (b) to determine if the actual steam power plant can achieve such thermal efficiency. Justify your answer.
d. For the actual steam power plant is the Clausius inequality satisfied? Show you computation and discuss whether your result agrees or disagrees with your answer in part (c).

What factors are likely to promote the formation of stress corrosion cracks?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Stress corrosion cracking

Explanation:

This occurs when susceptible materials subjected to an environment that causes cracking effect by the production of folds and tensile stress. This also depends upon the nature of the corrosive environment.

Factors like high-temperature water, along with Carbonization and chlorination, static stress, and material properties.

Paint can shaker mechanisms are common in paint and hardware stores. While they do a good job of mixing the paint, they are also
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

A good design for a portable device to mix paint minimizing the shaking forces and vibrations while still effectively mixing the paint. Is:

The best design is one with centripetal movement. Instead of vertical or horizontal movement. With a container and system of holding structures made of materials that could absorb the vibration effectively.

Explanation:

First of all centripetal movement would be friendlier to our objective as it would not shake the can or the machine itself with disruptive vibrations. Also, we would have to use materials with a good grade of force absorption to eradicate the transmission of the movement to the rest of the structure. Allowing the reduction of the shaking forces while maintaining it effective in the process of mixing.

The electric motor exerts a torque of 800 N·m on the steel shaft ABCD when it is rotating at a constant speed. Design specificat
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

d= 4.079m ≈ 4.1m

Explanation:

calculate the shaft diameter from the torque,    \frac{τ}{r} = \frac{T}{J} = \frac{C . ∅}{l}

Where, τ = Torsional stress induced at the outer surface of the shaft (Maximum Shear stress).

r = Radius of the shaft.

T = Twisting Moment or Torque.

J = Polar moment of inertia.

C = Modulus of rigidity for the shaft material.

l = Length of the shaft.

θ = Angle of twist in radians on a length.  

Maximum Torque, ζ= τ ×  \frac{ π}{16} × d³

τ= 60 MPa

ζ= 800 N·m

800 = 60 ×  \frac{ π}{16} × d³

800= 11.78 ×  d³

d³= 800 ÷ 11.78

d³= 67.9

d= \sqrt[3]{} 67.9

d= 4.079m ≈ 4.1m

What does the air change rate represent?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

  • The removal or addition of air volume to the space is the air change rate
  • The rate of air change is positive when air volume is added to the space and the rate of air change is negative when air volume is removed from the space.
  • The standard built home has a 0.5 to 1 of air change rate.
  • The rate of air change is dependent on the building (how the building form)
