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.

A cast-iron tube is used to support a compressive load. Knowing that E 5 10 3 106 psi and that the maximum allowable change in l
Papessa [141]

Answer:

(a) 2.5 ksi

(b) 0.1075 in

Explanation:

(a)

E=\frac {\sigma}{\epsilon}

Making \sigma the subject then

\sigma=E\epsilon

where \sigma is the stress and \epsilon is the strain

Since strain is given as 0.025% of the length then strain is \frac {0.025}{100}=0.00025

Now substituting E for 10\times 10^{6} psi then

\sigma=(10\times 10^{6} psi)\times 0.00025=2500 si= 2.5 ksi

(b)

Stress, \sigma= \frac {F}{A} making A the subject then

A=\frac {F}{\sigma}

A=\frac {\pi(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})}{4}

where d is the diameter and subscripts o and i denote outer and inner respectively.

We know that 2t=d_o - d_i where t is thickness

Now substituting

\frac {\pi(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})}{4}=\frac {1600}{2500}

\pi(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})=\frac {1600}{2500}\times 4

(d_o^{2}-d_i^{2})=\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4

But the outer diameter is given as 2 in hence

(2^{2}-d_i^{2})=\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4

2^{2}-(\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4)=d_i^{2}

d_i=\sqrt {2^{2}-(\frac {1600}{2500\times \pi}\times 4)}=1.784692324 in\approx 1.785 in

As already mentioned, 2t=d_o - d_i hence t=0.5(d_o - d_i)

t=0.5(2-1.785)=0.1075 in

Consider a fan located in a 3 ft by 3 ft square duct. Velocities at various points at the outlet are measured, and the average f
natulia [17]

Answer:

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor is 0.1437 Btu/s

Explanation:

given data

area = 3 ft by 3 ft

air density = 0.075 lbm/ft³

to find out

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor

solution

we know that energy balance equation that is express as

E in - E out  = \frac{dE \ system}{dt}    ......................1

and at steady state  \frac{dE \ system}{dt} = 0

so we can say from equation 1

E in = E out

so

minimum power required is

E in = W = m \frac{V^2}{2} = \rho A V \frac{V^2}{2}  

put here value

E in =  \rho A V \frac{V^2}{2}  

E in =  0.075 *3*3* 22 \frac{22^2}{2}  

E in = 0.1437 Btu/s

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor is 0.1437 Btu/s

What are the atomic binding force and energy? how do they relate to materials strength and thermal stability.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

As we know that every molecule is attached by a strong force .The force required to disassemble the atoms is know as atomic binding force or we can say that the force required to disassemble the electron from atoms is known as binding force.On the other hand the energy require to doing this is known as atomic binding energy.

If the binding force is high then it will become difficult to disassemble thermally as well as mechanically.So we can say that it have direct relationship with   materials strength and thermal stability.

Sketch T-s and p-v diagrams for the Diesel cycle.
labwork [276]

Answer:

Diesel cycle:

    All diesel engine works on diesel cycle.It have four processes .These four processes are as follows

1-2.Reversible adiabatic compression

2-3.Heat addition at constant pressure

3-4.Reversible adiabatic expansion

4-1.Heat addition at constant volume

When air inters in the piston cylinder after that it compresses and gets heated due to compression after that heat addition take place at constant pressure after that power is produces when piston moves to bottom dead center.

From the diagram of P-v And T-s we can understand so easily.
