Use protective gear. Use insulated tools, Wear flame resistant clothing, safety glasses, and insulation gloves, Remove watches or other jewelry, Stand on an insulation mat. 03. Never connect the insulation tester to energized conductors or energized equipment and always follow the manufacturer's recommendations. When installing new electrical machinery or equipment, testing insulation resistance is important for two reasons. First, it ensures that the insulation is in adequate condition to begin operation. ... The test is accomplished by applying DC voltage through the de-energized circuit using an insulation tester. Insulation resistance should be approximately one megohm for each 1,000 volts of operating voltage, with a minimum value of one megohm. For example, a motor rated at 2,400 volts should have a minimum insulation resistance of 2.4 megohms.

A rigid, sealed tank initially contains 2000 kg of water at 30 °C and atmospheric pressure. Determine: a) the volume of the tank
Bad White [126]

Given:

mass of water, m = 2000 kg

temperature, T = 30^{\circ}C = 303 K

extacted mass of water = 100 kg

Atmospheric pressure, P = 101.325 kPa

Solution:

a) Using Ideal gas equation:

PV = m\bar{R}T                                        (1)

where,

V = volume

m = mass of water

P = atmospheric pressure

\bar{R} = \frac{R}{M}

R= Rydberg's constant = 8.314 KJ/K

M = molar mass of water = 18 g/ mol

Now, using eqn (1):

V = \frac{m\bar{R}T}{P}

V = \frac{2000\times \frac{8.314}{18}\times 303}{101.325}

V = 2762.44 m^{3}

Therefore, the volume of the tank is V = 2762.44 m^{3}

b) After extracting 100 kg of water, amount of water left, m' = m - 100

m' = 2000 - 100 = 1900 kg

The remaining water reaches thermal equilibrium with surrounding temperature at T' = 30^{\circ}C = 303 K

At equilibrium, volume remain same

So,

P'V = m'\bar{R}T'

P' = \frac{1900\times \frac{8.314}{18}\times 303}{2762.44}      

Therefore, the final pressure is P' = 96.258 kPa

Two sites are being considered for wind power generation. On the first site, the wind blows steadily at 7 m/s for 3000 hours per
kirill [66]

Solution :

Given :

$V_1 = 7 \ m/s$

Operation time, $T_1$ = 3000 hours per year

$V_2 = 10 \ m/s$

Operation time, $T_2$ = 2000 hours per year

The density, ρ = $1.25 \ kg/m^3$

The wind blows steadily. So, the K.E. = $(0.5 \dot{m} V^2)$

                                                             $= \dot{m} \times 0.5 V^2$

The power generation is the time rate of the kinetic energy which can be calculated as follows:

Power = $\Delta \ \dot{K.E.} = \dot{m} \frac{V^2}{2}$

Regarding that $\dot m \propto V$. Then,

Power $ \propto V^3$ → Power = constant x $V^3$

Since, $\rho_a$ is constant for both the sites and the area is the same as same winf turbine is used.

For the first site,

Power, $P_1= \text{const.} \times V_1^3$

            $P_1 = \text{const.} \times 343 \ W$

For the second site,

Power, $P_2 = \text{const.} \times V_2^3 \ W$

           $P_2 = \text{const.} \times 1000 \ W$
