Explain the Corona discharge?
1 answer:
Answer:
• Corona discharge means <u> </u><u>neutralization</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>charge</u><u> </u><u>action</u><u> </u><u>at</u><u> </u><u>a</u><u> </u><u>sharp</u><u> </u><u>point</u>
example; a pear shaped conductor, lightening conductor, van de graaf generator.
Explanation:
• In corona discharge, When a sharp conductor is placed somewhere in open space. The charges of opposite chrage attract the opposite ions in the air around that conductor.
• This increases the charge density and electric field intensity at the sharp point, this neutralises the charge at sharp point hence a discharge known as corona discharge occurs.

Answer:
flow(m) = 54.45 kg/s
thermal efficiency u = 44.48%
Explanation:
Given:
- P_1 = P_8 = 10 KPa
- P_2 = P_3 = P_6 = P_7 = 800 KPa
- P_4 = P_5 = 10,000 KPa
- T_5 = 550 C
- T_7 = 500 C
- Power Output P = 80 MW
Find:
- The mass flow rate of steam through the boiler
- The thermal efficiency of the cycle.
Solution:
State 1:
P_1 = 10 KPa , saturated liquid
h_1 = 192 KJ/kg
v_1 = 0.00101 m^3 / kg
State 2:
P_2 = 800 KPa , constant volume process work done:
h_2 = h_1 + v_1 * ( P_2 - P_1)
h_2 = 192 + 0.00101*(790) = 192.80 KJ/kg
State 3:
P_3 = 800 KPa , saturated liquid
h_3 = 721 KJ/kg
v_3 = 0.00111 m^3 / kg
State 4:
P_4 = 10,000 KPa , constant volume process work done:
h_4 = h_3 + v_3 * ( P_4 - P_3)
h_4 = 721 + 0.00111*(9200) = 731.21 KJ/kg
State 5:
P_5 = 10,000 KPa , T_5 = 550 C
h_5 = 3500 KJ/kg
s_5 = 6.760 KJ/kgK
State 6:
P_6 = 800 KPa , s_5 = s_6 = 6.760 KJ/kgK
h_6 = 2810 KJ/kg
State 7:
P_7 = 800 KPa , T_7 = 500 C
h_7 = 3480 KJ/kg
s_7 = 7.870 KJ/kgK
State 8:
P_8 = 10 KPa , s_8 = s_7 = 7.870 KJ/kgK
h_8 = 2490 KJ/kg
- Fraction of steam y = flow(m_6 / m_3).
- Use energy balance of steam bleed and cold feed-water:
E_6 + E_2 = E_3
flow(m_6)*h_6 + flow(m_2)*h_3 = flow(m_3)*h_3
y*h_6 + (1-y)*h_3 = h_3
y*2810 + (1-y)*192.8 = 721
Compute y: y = 0.2018
- Heat produced by the boiler q_b:
q_b = h_5 - h_4 +(1-y)*(h_7 - h_8)
q_b = 3500 -731.21 + ( 1 - 0.2018)*(3480 - 2810)
Compute q_b: q_b = 3303.58 KJ/ kg
-Heat dissipated by the condenser q_c:
q_c = (1-y)*(h_8 - h_1)
q_c= ( 1 + 0.2018)*(2810 - 192)
Compute q_c: q_c = 1834.26 KJ/ kg
- Net power output w_net:
w_net = q_b - q_c
w_net = 3303.58 - 1834.26
w_net = 1469.32 KJ/kg
- Given out put P = 80,000 KW
flow(m) = P / w_net
compute flow(m) flow(m) = 80,000 /1469.32 = 54.45 kg/s
- Thermal efficiency u:
u = 1 - (q_c / q_b)
u = 1 - (1834.26/3303.58)
u = 44.48 %

b) False
Explanation:
in trapezoidal rule the error is proportional to and the order of accuracy is proportional to
.
Trapezoidal rule is numerical integration method .Trapezoidal rule is used to find the area of curves.In trapezoidal rule we finds the approximate value of integration.But the real value of integration will not differ to much from the value which finds by using trapezoidal rule.
