Answer:

q' = 5826 W/m

Explanation:

Given:-

- The length of the fin in question, L = 0.15 m

- The fin's surface temperature, Ts = 250°C

- The velocity of free stream air, U = 80 km/h

- The air temperature, Ta = 27°C

- The flow is parallel over both sides of the fin, assuming turbulent flow conditions throughout.

Find:-

What is the heat removal rate per unit width of the fin?

Solution:-

- Steady state conditions are assumed, along with negligible radiation and turbulent flow conditions.

- From Table A-4, we gather air properties (T = 412 K, P = 1 atm ):

    Dynamic viscosity, v = 27.85 * 10^-6 m²/s  

    Thermal conductivity, k = 0.0346 W / m.K

    Prandtl number Pr = 0.69

- Compute the Nusselt Number (Nu) corresponding to - turbulent conditions - using the relevant relationship as follows:

                          Nu = 0.037*Re_L^\frac{4}{5} * Pr^\frac{1}{3}

Where,    Re_L: Average Reynolds number for the entire length of fin:

                          Re_L = \frac{U*L}{v} \\\\Re_L = \frac{80*\frac{1000}{3600} * 0.15}{27.85*10^-^6} \\\\Re_L = 119688.80909

Consequently,

                         

Nu = 0.037*(119688.80909)^\frac{4}{5} * 0.69^\frac{1}{3}\\\\Nu = 378

- The convective heat transfer coefficient (h) can now be derived from:

                          h = \frac{k*Nu}{L} \\\\h = \frac{0.0346*378}{0.15} \\\\h = 87 \frac{W}{m^2K}

- The heat loss rate q' per unit width can be established using the convection heat transfer formula and should be multiplied by (x2) since the airflow is present on both sides of the fin:

                          q' = 2*[h*L*(T_s - T_a)]\\\\q' = 2*[87*0.15*(250 - 27)]\\\\q' = 5826\frac{W}{m}

- Ultimately, the heat loss per unit width from the rectangular fin is q' = 5826 W/m

- The thermal loss per unit width (q') attributed to radiation:

                  q' = 2*a*T_s^4*L

Where, a signifies the Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.67*10^-8

                  q' = 2*5.67*10^-^8*(523)^4*0.15\\\\q' = 1273 \frac{W}{m}

- It is observed that radiation losses are not insignificant, accounting for 20% of thermal loss by convection. As the emissivity (e) of the fin is unspecified, this value is dismissed from the calculations as it pertains to the provided information.

A 50 Hz, four pole turbo-generator rated 100 MVA, 11 kV has an inertia constant of 8.0 MJ/MVA. (a) Find the stored energy in the
Mrrafil [253]

Given Information:

Frequency = f = 60 Hz

Complex rated power = G = 100 MVA

Inertia constant = H = 8 MJ/MVA

Mechanical power = Pmech = 80 MW

Electrical power = Pelec = 50 MW

Number of poles = P = 4

No. of cycles = 10

Required Information:

(a) stored energy =?

(b) rotor acceleration =?

(c) change in torque angle =?

(c) rotor speed =?

Answer:

(a) stored energy = 800 Mj

(b) rotor acceleration = 337.46 elec deg/s²

(c) change in torque angle (in elec deg) = 6.75 elec deg

(c) change in torque angle (in rmp/s) = 28.12 rpm/s

(c) rotor speed = 1505.62 rpm

Explanation:

(a) Calculate the rotor's stored energy at synchronous speed.

The stored energy is represented as

E = G \times H

Where G stands for complex rated power and H signifies the inertia constant of the turbo-generator.

E = 100 \times 8 \\\\E = 800 \: MJ

(b) If we suddenly increase the mechanical input to 80 MW against an electrical load of 50 MW, we shall find the rotor's acceleration while ignoring mechanical and electrical losses.

The formula for rotor acceleration is given by

$ P_a = P_{mech} - P_{elec} = M \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} $

Where M is defined as

$ M = \frac{E}{180 \times f} $

$ M = \frac{800}{180 \times 50} $

M = 0.0889 \: MJ \cdot s/ elec \: \: deg

$ P_a = 80 - 50 = 0.0889 \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} $

$ 30 = 0.0889 \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} $

$ \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} = \frac{30}{0.0889} $

$ \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2} = 337.46 \:\: elec \: deg/s^2 $

(c) If the acceleration derived in part (b) persists over 10 cycles, we will calculate both the change in torque angle and the rotor speed in revolutions per minute at the end of this duration.

The change in torque angle is expressed as

$ \Delta \delta = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{d^2 \delta}{dt^2}\cdot (t)^2 $

Where t is determined from

1 \: cycle = 1/f = 1/50 \\\\10 \: cycles = 10/50 = 0.2 \\\\t = 0.2 \: sec

Consequently,

$ \Delta \delta = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 337.46 \cdot (0.2)^2 $

$ \Delta \delta = 6.75 \: elec \: deg

The change in torque in rpm/s is provided by

$ \Delta \delta = \frac{337.46 \cdot 60}{2 \cdot 360\circ } $

$ \Delta \delta =28.12 \: \: rpm/s $

The rotor speed in rpm at the culmination of this 10-cycle period is calculated as

$ Rotor \: speed = \frac{120 \cdot f}{P} + (\Delta \delta)\cdot t $

Where P indicates the number of poles on the turbo-generator.

$ Rotor \: speed = \frac{120 \cdot 50}{4} + (28.12)\cdot 0.2 $

$ Rotor \: speed = 1500 + 5.62 $

$ Rotor \: speed = 1505.62 \:\: rpm

Mrrafil [253]

Answer:

Change in length = 0.0913 in

Explanation:

Given data:

Length = 6 ft

Diameter = 0.2 in

Load w = 200 lb/ft

Solution:

We start by applying the equilibrium moment about point C, expressed as

∑M(c) = 0.............1

This can be used to find the force in AB.

10× 200 × ( 5) - (T cos(30)) × 10 = 0

Solving gives us

Tension in wire T(AB) = 1154.7 lb

We also know the modulus of elasticity for A992 is

E = 29000 ksi

And the area will be

Area = \frac{\pi }{4}\times 0.2^2

The change in length is expressed as

Change in length = \frac{PL}{AE}.........2

Substituting values results in

Change in length = \frac{1154.7 \times 6 \times 12}{\frac{\pi }{4}\times 0.2^2 \times 29000 \times 1000}

Change in length = 0.0913 in

B)cout<<setw(5)<<fixed<<setprecision(3)<<7.0;

C)cout<<fixed<<5.789E12;

D)cout<<left<<setw(7)<<67;

Explanation:

Stream Manipulators are special functions for use with the insertion (<<) and extraction (>>) operators on C++ stream objects, while the 'cout' statement outputs content to the standard output device in C++ programming.

setw: specifies the minimum width of the output field

setprecision: defines the number of decimal places for floating-point value formatting.

fixed: sets the format flag for floating-point streams.

left: left-aligns the output.

A) This statement shows the number 34.789 in a field that provides eight character spaces with two decimal precision. cout<<setw(9)<<fixed<<setprecision(2)<<34.789;

B) Here, the number 7.0 is displayed within six spaces with three decimal precision. cout<<setw(5)<<fixed<<setprecision(3)<<7.0;

C) This command prints 5.789e+12 in fixed-point format.  cout<<fixed<<5.789E12;

D) This statement left-aligns the number 67 across a field of six spaces. cout<<left<<setw(7)<<67;

A liquid food with 12% total solids is being heated by steam injection using steam at a pressure of 232.1 kPa (Fig. E3.3). The p
iogann1982 [279]

Answer:

m_{s}=20kg/min

H_{s}=1914kJ/kg

Explanation:

A liquid food containing 12% total solids is heated via steam injection at a pressure of 232.1 kPa (see Fig. E3.3). The product starts at a temperature of 50°C and has a flow rate of 100 kg/min, being elevated to a temperature of 120°C. The specific heat of the product varies with its composition as follows:

c_{p}=c_{pw}(mass fraction H_{2}0)+c_{ps}(mass fraction solid) and the

specific heat of the product at 12% total solids is 3.936 kJ/(kg°C). The goal is to calculate the quantity and minimum quality of steam required to ensure that the leaving product has 10% total solids.

Given

Product total solids in (X_{A}) = 0.12

Product mass flow rate (m_{A}) = 100 kg/min

Product total solids out (X_{B}) = 0.1

Product temperature in (T_{A}) = 50°C

Product temperature out (T_{B}) = 120°C

Steam pressure = 232.1 kPa at (T_{S}) = 125°C

Product specific heat in (C_{PA}) = 3.936 kJ/(kg°C)

The mass equation is:

m_{A}X_{A}=m_{B}X_{B}

100(0.12)=m_{B}(0.1)\\m_{B}=\frac{100(0.12)}{0.1} =120

Also m_{a}+m_{s}=m_{b}\\

Therefore: 100}+m_{s}=120\\\\m_{s}=120-100=20

The energy balance equation is:

m_{A}C_{PA}(T_{A}-0)+m_{s}H_{s}=m_{B}C_{PB}(T_{B}-0)

3.936 = (4.178)(0.88) +C_{PS}(0.12)\\C_{PS}=\frac{3.936-3.677}{0.12} =2.161

C_{PB}= 4.232*0.9+0.1C_{PS}= 4.232*0.9+0.1*2.161=4.025  kJ/(kg°C)

By substituting values into the energy equation:

100(3.936)(50-0)+20H_{s}=120(4.025)}(120-0)

19680+20H_{s}=57960\\20H_{s}=57960-19680 \\20H_{s}=38280\\H_{s}=\frac{38280}{20} =1914

H_{s}=1914kJ/kg

From the properties of saturated steam at 232.1 kPa,

H_{c} = 524.99 kJ/kg

H_{v} = 2713.5 kJ/kg

% quality = \frac{1914-524.99}{2713.5-524.99} =63.5%

Any steam quality above 63.5% will result in higher total solids in the heated product.

A hydrogen-filled balloon to be used in high altitude atmosphere studies will eventually be 100 ft in diameter. At 150,000 ft, t
mote1985 [204]

Answer:

The calculated result is 11.7 ft

Explanation:

You can apply the combined gas law, which incorporates Boyle's law, Charles's law, and Gay-Lussac's Law, because hydrogen demonstrates ideal gas behavior under these specific conditions.

\frac{p_1 V_1}{T_1} = \frac{p_2 V_2}{T_2}

where the subscripts indicate "p" for pressure, "V" for volume, and "T" for temperature (in Kelvin) at varying moments. Let's denote t_1 as the balloon at 150,000 ft so

p_1 = 0.14 \ lb/in^2

V_1 = \frac{4}{3} \pi R_1^3 = 523598.77 \ ft^3

and T_1 = -67^\circ F = 218.15\ K.

Then t_2 represents the point at which the balloon is on the ground.

p_2 = 14.7 \ lb/in^2 and T_2 = 68^\circ F = 293.15\ K.

Based on the first equation

V_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1 T_2}{T_1 p_2}, we find

V_2 = 6701.07 ft^3 and consequently the radius turns out to be

R_2 = \sqrt[3]{\frac{3 V_2}{4 \pi}} = 11.7 \ ft.
