Moonbeam-Musel (MM), a manufacturer of small appliances, has a large injection molding department. Because MM's CEO, Crosscut Sa

l, is a stickler for keeping machinery running, the company stocks quick-change replacement modules for the two most common types of failure. Type A modules cost $150 each and have been used at a rate of about 7 per month, while type B modules cost $15 and have been used at a rate of about 30 per month, and for simplicity we assume a month is 30 days. Both modules are purchased from a supplier; replenishment lead times are one month and one-half month (15 days) for modules 1 and 2, respectively.
Required:
Suppose MM wishes to follow a base stock policy. Assuming that demand is Poisson-distributed, calculate the base stock levels for type A and type B modules in order to ensure a fill rate of at least 98 percent for each module. What is the expected total inventory level (in dollars)?

Air enters a cmpressor at 20 deg C and 80 kPa and exits at 800 kPa and 200 deg C. The power input is 400 kW. Find the heat trans
aksik [14]

Answer:

The heat is transferred is at the rate of 752.33 kW

Solution:

As per the question:

Temperature at inlet, T_{i} = 20^{\circ}C = 273 + 20 = 293 K

Temperature at the outlet, T_{o} = 200{\circ}C = 273 + 200 = 473 K

Pressure at inlet, P_{i} = 80 kPa = 80\times 10^{3} Pa

Pressure at outlet, P_{o} = 800 kPa = 800\times 10^{3} Pa

Speed at the outlet, v_{o} = 20 m/s

Diameter of the tube, D = 10 cm = 10\times 10^{- 2} m = 0.1 m

Input power, P_{i} = 400 kW = 400\times 10^{3} W

Now,

To calculate the heat transfer, Q, we make use of the steady flow eqn:

h_{i} + \frac{v_{i}^{2}}{2} + gH  + Q = h_{o} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + gH' + p_{s}

where

h_{i} = specific enthalpy at inlet

h_{o} = specific enthalpy at outlet

v_{i} = air speed at inlet

p_{s} = specific power input

H and H' = Elevation of inlet and outlet

Now, if

v_{i} = 0 and H = H'

Then the above eqn reduces to:

h_{i} + gH + Q = h_{o} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + gH + p_{s}

Q = h_{o} - h_{i} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + p_{s}                (1)

Also,

p_{s} = \frac{P_{i}}{ mass, m}

Area of cross-section, A = \frac{\pi D^{2}}{4} =\frac{\pi 0.1^{2}}{4} = 7.85\times 10^{- 3} m^{2}

Specific Volume at outlet, V_{o} = A\times v_{o} = 7.85\times 10^{- 3}\times 20 = 0.157 m^{3}/s

From the eqn:

P_{o}V_{o} = mRT_{o}

m = \frac{800\times 10^{3}\times 0.157}{287\times 473} = 0.925 kg/s

Now,

p_{s} = \frac{400\times 10^{3}}{0.925} = 432.432 kJ/kg

Also,

\Delta h = h_{o} - h_{i} = c_{p}\Delta T =c_{p}(T_{o} - T_{i}) = 1.005(200 - 20) = 180.9 kJ/kg

Now, using these values in eqn (1):

Q = 180.9 + \frac{20^{2}}{2} + 432.432 = 813.33 kW

Now, rate of heat transfer, q:

q = mQ = 0.925\times 813.33 = 752.33 kW

Five hundred gallons of 89-octane gasoline is obtained by mixing 87-octane gasoline with 92-octane gasoline. (a) Write a system
miskamm [114]

Explanation:

a) The total volume equals the sum of the volumes.

500 = x + y

The total octane amount equals the sum of the octane amounts.

89(500) = 87x + 92y

44500 = 87x + 92y

b) desmos.com/calculator/ekegkzllqx

As x increases, y decreases.

c) Use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.

44500 = 87x + 92(500−x)

44500 = 87x + 46000 − 92x

5x = 1500

x = 300

y = 200

The required volumes are 300 gallons of 87 gasoline and 200 gallons of 92 gasoline.

Stream Piracy – Kaaterskill, NY. Check and double-click the Problem 15 folder. The dark blue and orange streams highlight the pr
baherus [9]

Answer:

b. The pirating streams are eroding headwardly to intersect more of the other streams’ drainage basins, causing water to be diverted down their steeper gradients.

Explanation:

From the Kaaterskill NY 15 minute map (1906), this shows two classic examples of stream capture.

The Kaaterskill Creek flow down the east relatively steep slopes into the Hudson River Valley. While, the Gooseberry Creek is a low gradient stream flowing down the west direction which in turn drains the higher parts of the Catskills in this area.

However, there is Headward erosion of Kaaterskill Creek which resulted to the capture of part of the headwaters of Gooseberry Creek.

The evidence for this is the presence of "barbed" (enters at obtuse rather than acute angle) tributary which enters Kaaterskill Creek from South Lake which was once a part of the Gooseberry Creek drainage system.

It should be noted again, that there is drainage divide between the Gooseberry and Kaaterskill drainage systems (just to the left of the word Twilight) which is located in the center of the valley.

As it progresses, this divide will then move westward as Kaaterskill captures more and more of the Gooseberry system.
