Answer:
The FEM is a general numerical method for solving partial differential equations in two or three space variables (i.e., some boundary value problems). To solve a problem, the FEM subdivides a large system into smaller, simpler parts that are called finite elements.
Answer:
Vf = specific volume of saturated liquid = 0.0217158 ft^3/lb
Vg = specific volume of saturated steam = 0.430129 ft^3/lb
Explanation:
Given data:
water temperature is given as 287-degree Celcius
we have to find Vf and Vg
Vf = specific volume of saturated liquid
Vg = specific volume of saturated steam
we know that from the saturated steam table we can find these value
therefore for temperature 287-degree Celcius
Vf = specific volume of saturated liquid = 0.0217158 ft^3/lb
Vg = specific volume of saturated steam = 0.430129 ft^3/lb
Answer:
304.13 mph
Explanation:
Data provided in the question :
The Speed of the flying aircraft = 300 mph
Tailwind of the true airspeed = 50 mph
Now,
The ground speed will be calculated as:
ground speed = 
or
The ground speed = 
or
The ground speed = 304.13 mph
Hence, the ground speed is 304.13 mph

Explanation:
The answer to the above question is given in attached files.
Answer:
The heat loss rate through one of the windows made of polycarbonate is 252W. If the window is made of aerogel, the heat loss rate is 16.8W. If the window is made of soda-lime glass, the heat loss rate is 1190.4W.
The cost associated with the heat loss through the windows for an 8-hour flight is:
For aerogel windows: $17.472 (most efficient)
For polycarbonate windows: $262.08
For soda-lime glass windows: $1,238.016 (least efficient)
Explanation:
To calculate the heat loss rate through the window, we can use a model of heat transmission by conduction throw flat wall. Using unidimensional Fourier law:

In this case:

If we replace the data provided by the problem we get the heat loss rate through one of the windows of each material (we only have to change the thermal conductivities).
To obtain the thermal conductivity of the soda-lime glass we use the graphic attached to this answer (In this case for soda-lime glass k₃₀₀=0.992w/m·K).
To calculate the cost associated with the heat loss through the windows for an 8-hour flight we use this formula (using the heat loss rate calculated in each case):
