What are the disadvantages of having a liquid cooled engine?

Feliz [49]

One notable disadvantage of liquid cooling over air cooling is that it is considerably costly to set up. Cooling fans are prevalent in the market, and this overabundance of supply means they are cheap. The components of a liquid cooling system can be expensive.

A gas turbine operates with a regenerator and two stages of reheating and intercooling. Air enters this engine at 14 psia and 60

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

Explanation:

Given:

- T_1 = 60 F = 520 R

- T_6 = 940 = 1400 R

- Heat ratio for air k = 1.4

- Compression ratio r = 3

- W_net,out = 1000 hp

Find:

mass flow rate of the air

rates of heat addition and rejection

Solution:

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_2, T_4, T_10:

T_2 = T_1 * r^(k-1/k)

T_2 = T_4 = T_10 = 520*3^(.4/1.4) = 711.744 R

- Using ideal gas relation compute T_7, T_5, T_9:

T_7 = T_6 * r^(-k-1/k)

T_7 = T_5 = T_9 = 1400*3^(-.4/1.4) = 1022.84 R

- The mass flow rate is obtained by:

flow(m) = W_net,out / 2*c_p*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

flow(m) = 1000*.7068 / 2*0.24*(1400-1022.84-711.744+520)

flow(m) = 7.941 lbm/s

- The heat input is as follows:

Q_in = c_p*(T_6 - T_5)

Q_in = 0.24*(1400 - 1022.84)

Q_in = 90.5184 Btu/lbm

- The heat output is as follows:

Q_out = c_p*(T_10 - T_1)

Q_out = 0.24*(711.744 - 520)

Q_out = 56.01856 Btu/lbm

Exhaust gas from a furnace is used to preheat the combustion air supplied to the furnace burners. The gas, which has a flow rate

Monica [59]

Answer:

The total tube surface area in m² required to achieve an air outlet temperature of 850 K is 192.3 m²

Explanation:

Here we have the heat Q given as follows;

Q = 15 × 1075 × (1100 - $t_{A2}$ ) = 10 × 1075 × (850 - 300) = 5912500 J

∴ 1100 - $t_{A2}$ = 1100/3

$t_{A2}$ = 733.33 K

$\Delta \bar{t}_{a} =\frac{t_{A_{1}}+t_{A_{2}}}{2} - \frac{t_{B_{1}}+t_{B_{2}}}{2}$

Where

$\Delta \bar{t}_{a}$ = Arithmetic mean temperature difference

$t_{A_{1}$ = Inlet temperature of the gas = 1100 K

$t_{A_{2}$ = Outlet temperature of the gas = 733.33 K

$t_{B_{1}$ = Inlet temperature of the air = 300 K

$t_{B_{2}$ = Outlet temperature of the air = 850 K

Hence, plugging in the values, we have;

$\Delta \bar{t}_{a} =\frac{1100+733.33}{2} - \frac{300+850}{2} = 341\tfrac{2}{3} \, K = 341.67 \, K$

Hence, from;

$\dot{Q} = UA\Delta \bar{t}_{a}$ , we have

5912500 = 90 × A × 341.67

$A = \frac{5912500 }{90 \times 341.67} = 192.3 \, m^2$

Hence, the total tube surface area in m² required to achieve an air outlet temperature of 850 K = 192.3 m².

A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

COP of the heat pump is 3.013

OP of the cycle is 1.124

Explanation:

W = Q₂ - Q₁

Given

a)

Q₂ = Q₁ + W

= 15 + 7.45

= 22.45 kw

COP = Q₂ / W = 22.45 / 7.45 = 3.013

b)

Q₂ = 15 x 1.055 = 15.825 kw

therefore,

Q₁ = Q₂ - W

Q₁ = 15.825 - 7.45 = 8.375

∴ COP = Q₁ / W = 8.375 / 7.45 = 1.124

The theoretical maximum specific gravity of a mix at 5.0% binder content is 2.495. Using a binder specific gravity of 1.0, find

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The theoretical maximum specific gravity at 6.5% binder content is 2.44.

Explanation:

Given the specific gravity at 5.0 % binder content 2.495

Therefore

95 % mix + 5 % binder gives S.G. = 2.495

Where the binder is S.G. = 1, Therefore

Per 100 mass unit we have (Mx + 5)/(Vx + 5) = 2.495

(95 +5)/(Vx +5) = 2.495

2.495 × (Vx + 5) = 100

Vx =35.08 to 95

Or density of mix = Mx/Vx = 95/35.08 = 2.7081

Therefore when we have 6.5 % binder content, we get

Per 100 mass unit

93.5 Mass unit of Mx has a volume of

Mass/Density = 93.5/2.7081 = 34.526 volume units

Therefore we have

At 6.5 % binder content.

(100 mass unit)/(34.526 + 6.5) = 2.44

The theoretical maximum specific gravity at 6.5% binder content = 2.44.
