A student engineer is given a summer job to find the drag force on a new unmaned aerial vehicle that travels at a cruising speed

of 320 km/h in air at 15 C. The student decided to build a 1/50 scale model and test it in a water tunnel at the same temperature.
(a) What conditions are required to ensure the similarity of scale model and prototype.
(b) Find the water speed required to model the prototype.
(c) If the drag force on the model is 5 kN, determine the drag force on the prototype

Answer:

b. 1232.08 km/hr

c. 1.02 kn

Explanation:

a) For dynamic similar conditions, the non-dimensional terms R/ρ V2 L2 and ρVL/ μ should be same for both prototype and its model. For these non-dimensional terms , R is drag force, V is velocity in m/s, μ is dynamic viscosity, ρ is density and L is length parameter.

See attachment for the remaining.

defon

Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

using namespace std;

bool isPalindrome(string str)

{

   int length = str.length();

   for (int i = 0; i < length / 2; i++)

   {

       if (tolower(str[i]) != tolower(str[length - 1 - i]))

           return false;

   }

   return true;

}

int main()

{

   string s[6] = {"madam", "abba", "22", "67876", "444244", "trymeuemyrt"};

   int i;

   for(i=0; i<6; i++)

   {

       //Testing function

       if(isPalindrome(s[i]))

       {

           cout << "\n " << s[i] << " is a palindrome... \n";

       }

       else

       {

           cout << "\n " << s[i] << " is not a palindrome... \n";

Explain the difference, on the basis of the test results, between the ultimate strength and the "true" stress at fracture.
gayaneshka [121]

Answer / Explanation:

On the basis of the test result, Ultimate strength which is mostly known as the ultimate tensile strength is the strength attached to the ability or capacity of a structural element or material used in the test to withstand elongation forces or pull force applied to it.  

WHILE,

True stress at fracture can be classified as stress or load associated to the point where yielding or fracture occurred divided by the cross-sectional area at the yield point.

An ideal Otto cycle has a compression ratio of 8. At the beginning of the compression process, air is at 95 kPa and 278C, and 75
Inessa [10]

Answer:

(a). The value of temperature at the end of heat addition process            T_{3} = 2042.56 K

(b). The value of pressure at the end of heat addition process                    P_{3} = 1555.46 k pa

(c). The thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle   E_{otto} = 0.4478

(d). The value of mean effective pressure of the cycle P_{m} = 1506.41 \frac{k pa}{kg}

Explanation:

Compression ratio r_{p} = 8

Initial pressure P_{1} = 95 k pa

Initial temperature T_{1} = 278 °c = 551 K

Final pressure P_{2} = 8 × P_{1} = 8 × 95 = 760 k pa

Final temperature T_{2} = T_{1} × r_{p} ^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma} }

Final temperature T_{2} = 551 × 8 ^{\frac{1.4 - 1}{1.4} }

Final temperature T_{2} = 998 K

Heat transferred at constant volume Q = 750 \frac{KJ}{kg}

(a). We know that Heat transferred at constant volume Q_{S} = m C_{v} ( T_{3} - T_{2}  )

⇒ 1 × 0.718 × ( T_{3} - 998 ) = 750

⇒ T_{3} = 2042.56 K

This is the value of temperature at the end of heat addition process.

Since heat addition is constant volume process. so for that process pressure is directly proportional to the temperature.

⇒ P ∝ T

⇒ \frac{P_{3} }{P_{2} } = \frac{T_{3} }{T_{2} }

⇒ P_{3} = \frac{2042.56}{998} × 760

⇒ P_{3} = 1555.46 k pa

This is the value of pressure at the end of heat addition process.

(b). Heat rejected from the cycle Q_{R} = m C_{v} ( T_{4} - T_{1}  )

For the compression and expansion process,

⇒ \frac{T_{3} }{T_{2} } = \frac{T_{4} }{T_{1} }

⇒ \frac{2042.56}{998} = \frac{T_{4} }{551}

⇒ T_{4} = 1127.7 K

Heat rejected Q_{R} = 1 × 0.718 × ( 1127.7 - 551)

⇒ Q_{R} = 414.07 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Net heat interaction from the cycle Q_{net} = Q_{S} - Q_{R}

Put the values of Q_{S} & Q_{R}  we get,

⇒ Q_{net} = 750 - 414.07

⇒ Q_{net} = 335.93 \frac{KJ}{kg}

We know that for a cyclic process net heat interaction is equal to net work transfer.

⇒ Q_{net} = W_{net}

⇒ W_{net} = 335.93 \frac{KJ}{kg}

This is the net work output from the cycle.

(c). Thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle is given by

E_{otto} = 1- \frac{T_{1} }{T_{2} }

Put the values of T_{1} & T_{2} in the above formula we get,

E_{otto} = 1- \frac{551 }{998 }

⇒ E_{otto} = 0.4478

This is the thermal efficiency of an Otto cycle.

(d). Mean effective pressure P_{m} :-

We know that mean effective pressure of  the Otto cycle is  given by

P_{m} = \frac{W_{net} }{V_{s} } ---------- (1)

where V_{s} is the swept volume.

V_{s} = V_{1}  - V_{2} ---------- ( 2 )

From ideal gas equation P_{1} V_{1} = m × R × T_{1}

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 95 × V_{1} = 1 × 0.287 × 551

⇒ V_{1} = 0.6 m^{3}

From the same ideal gas equation

P_{2} V_{2} = m × R × T_{2}

⇒ 760 × V_{2} = 1 × 0.287 × 998

⇒ V_{2} = 0.377 m^{3}

Thus swept volume V_{s} = 0.6 - 0.377

⇒ V_{s} = 0.223 m^{3}

Thus from equation 1 the mean effective pressure

⇒ P_{m} = \frac{335.93}{0.223}

⇒ P_{m} = 1506.41 \frac{k pa}{kg}

This is the value of mean effective pressure of the cycle.
