System grounding on a power system means electrically connecting the __?__ of every wye-connected transformer or generator to ea

irinina [24]

Answer: Neutrals

Explanation: System grounding on a power system is a term used to describe the entire processes involved when a neutral is used as the conductor to connect to the solid earth. This ensures that power is generated. This is usually done using either an inductor, an impendance or a resistor. It is very important and necessary to carry out a proper grounding of a power system in order to ensure the safety of the equipment and the personnel etc

If you add 10 J of heat to a system so that the final temperature of the system is 200K, what is the change in entropy of the sy

Elden [556K]

Answer:

0.05 J/K

Explanation:

Given data in question

heat (Q) = 10 J

temperature (T) = 200 K

to find out

the change in entropy of the system

Solution

we will solve this by the entropy change equation

i.e ΔS = ΔQ/T ...................1

put the value of heat Q and Temperature T in equation 1

ΔS is the enthalpy change and T is the temperature

so ΔS = 10/200

ΔS = 0.05 J/K

The wall of drying oven is constructed by sandwiching insulation material of thermal conductivity k = 0.05 W/m°K between thin me

masha68 [24]

Answer:

86 mm

Explanation:

From the attached thermal circuit diagram, equation for i-nodes will be

$\frac {T_ \infty, i-T_{i}}{ R^{"}_{cv, i}} + \frac {T_{o}-T_{i}}{ R^{"}_{cd}} + q_{rad} = 0$ Equation 1

Similarly, the equation for outer node “o” will be

$\frac {T_{ i}-T_{o}}{ R^{"}_{cd}} + \frac {T_{\infty, o} -T_{o}}{ R^{"}_{cv, o}} = 0$ Equation 2

The conventive thermal resistance in i-node will be

$R^{"}_{cv, i}= \frac {1}{h_{i}}= \frac {1}{30}= 0.033 m^{2}K/w$ Equation 3

The conventive hermal resistance per unit area is

$R^{"}_{cv, o}= \frac {1}{h_{o}}= \frac {1}{10}= 0.100 m^{2}K/w$ Equation 4

The conductive thermal resistance per unit area is

$R^{"}_{cd}= \frac {L}{K}= \frac {L}{0.05} m^{2}K/w$ Equation 5

Since $q_{rad}$ is given as 100, $T_{o}$ is 40 $T_ \infty$ is 300 $T_{\infty, o}$ is 25

Substituting the values in equations 3,4 and 5 into equations 1 and 2 we obtain

$\frac {300-T_{i}}{0.033} +\frac {40-T_{i}}{L/0.05} +100=0$ Equation 6

$\frac {T_{ i}-40}{L/0.05}+ \frac {25-40}{0.100}=0$

$T_{i}-40= \frac {L}{0.05}*150$

$T_{i}-40=3000L$

$T_{i}=3000L+40$ Equation 7

From equation 6 we can substitute wherever there’s $T_{i}$ with 3000L+40 as seen in equation 7 hence we obtain

$\frac {300- (3000L+40)}{0.033} + \frac {40- (3000L+40)}{L/0.05}+100=0$

The above can be simplified to be

$\frac {260-3000L}{0.033}+ \frac {(-3000L)}{L/0.05}+100=0$

$\frac {260-3000L}{0.033}=50$

-3000L=1.665-260

$L= \frac {-258.33}{-3000}=0.086*10^{-3}m= 86mm$

Therefore, insulation thickness is 86mm

One kilogram of air, initially at 5 bar, 350 K, and 3 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2), initially at 2 bar, 450 K, are confined to opp

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Energy alance of 2 closed systems: Heat from CO2 equals the heat that is added to air in

$m_{a} c_{v,a}(T_{eq} -T_{a,i)} =m_{co2} c_{v,co2} (T_{co2,i} -T_{eq)}$

1x0.723x $(T_{eq} -350)$ =3x0.780x $(450-T_{eq} )$ ⇒ $T_{eq}$ = 426.4 °K

The initail volumes of the gases can be determined by the ideal gas equation of state,

$V_{a,i} = \frac{mRT_{a,i} }{P_{a,i} }$ = $\frac{1x (8.314 28.97 kJ kg • °K)x 350°K}{5 bar x 100KPa bar}$ = 0.201 $m^{3}$

The equilibrium pressure of the gases can also be obtained by the ideal gas equation

$P_{eq=\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,eq}+V_{CO2,eq)} } =\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,i}+V_{CO2,i)} }$

$P_{eq}$ = 1x(8.314 28.97)x426.4+3x(8.314 44)x426.4

(0.201+1.275)

= 246.67 KPa = 2.47 bar
