Numerical weather prediction (NWP) uses mathematical models of the atmosphere and oceans to predict the weather based on current weather conditions. Though first attempted in the 1920s, it was not until the advent of computer simulation in the 1950s that numerical weather predictions produced realistic results. A number of global and regional forecast models are run in different countries worldwide, using current weather observations relayed from radiosondes, weather satellites and other observing systems as inputs.

An Otto cycle engine is analyzed using the air standard method. Given the conditions at state 1, compression ratio (r), and pres
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

A)  222.58 kJ / kg

B)  0.8897 M^3/ kg

c)  0.7737 m^3/kg

D)  746.542 k

E)  536.017 kj/kg

efficiency = 58% ( approximately )

Explanation:

Given Data :

Gas constant (R) =  0.287 kJ/ kg.K

T1 = 310 k

P1 ( Kpa ) = 100

r = 11.5 ( compression ratio )

rp = 1.95 ( pressure ratio )

A ) specific internal energy at state 1

 = Cv*T1 =  0.718 * 310 = 222.58 kJ / kg

B) Relative specific volume at state 1

= P1*V1 = R*T1 ( ideal gas equation )

V1 = R*T1 / P1 = (0.287* 10^3*310 ) / 100 * 10^3

V1 = 88.97 / 100 = 0.8897 M^3/ kg

C ) relative specific volume at state 2

Applying  r ( compression ratio) = V1 / V2

11.5 = 0.8897 / V2

V2 = 0.8897 / 11.5 = 0.7737 m^3/kg

D) The temperature (k) at state 2

since the process is an Isentropic process we will apply the p-v-t relation

\frac{T1}{T2} = (\frac{V1}{V2}^{n-1}  ) = (\frac{P2}{P1} )^{\frac{n-1}{n} }

hence T2 = 9^{1.4-1} * 310 = 2.4082 * 310 = 746.542 k

e) specific internal energy at state 2

= Cv*T2 = 0.718  * 746.542 = 536.017 kj/kg

efficiency = output /input = 390.3511 / 667.5448 ≈ 58%

A 600-MW steam power plant, which is cooled by a nearby river, has a thermal efficiency of 54 percent. Determine the rate of hea
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW. Heat transfer can be higher if themal efficiency is lower.

Explanation:

The heat transfer rate to the river water is calculated by this expression:

\dot Q_{L} = \dot Q_{H} - \dot W

\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{\eta_{th}}-1 )\cdot \dot W\\\dot Q_{L} = (\frac{1}{0.54}-1)\cdot (600 MW)\\\dot Q _{L} = 511.111 MW

The actual heat transfer can be higher if the steam power plant reports an thermal efficiency lower than expected.

Which measuring tool will be used to determine the diameter of a crankshaft journal?
guapka [62]

Answer:

The dial bore gauge measures the inside of round holes, such as the bearing journals. This one tool can measure 2″ up to 6″ diameter holes. Both tools are needed in order to check the interior and exterior dimensions of the crankshaft, rods and engine block journals, as well as the thickness of the bearings themselves.

Hope it's helpful to you
