Answer:

surface temperature is 86.31c

Explanation:

given that

l = 10m

width a = 0.05m

height b = 0.025

inlet flow temperature T1 = 20c

mass flow rate , m = 0.01kg/s

outlet flow temperature, T2 = 80c

Average temperature

Tave = T1 + T2/2

= 20 + 80/2

= 50C

Hydraulic diameter of a rectanguar tube

Dh = 4Ac/p

= 4(a x b)/2(a +b)

4 (0.05 x 0.025)/2(0.05 + 0.025)

= 0.0333m

Average velocity

Vavg = m/ pAc

Vavg = 0.01/988.1 x ( 0.05 x 0.025)

=8.096 x 10∧-3m/s

properties of water at 1 atm and average temperature

Density , p = 988.1kg/m³

specific heat , cp = 4181 j/kg-k

kinematic viscosity, ∪ = 0. 547 x 10 ∧-3 kg/m-s

pranditl number , pr = 3.55

Reynolds number

Re = pVavgDh/ ∪

= 988.1 x 8.096 x 10∧-3 x0.0333/0.54 x 10 ∧-3

= 487.02.

As the obtained reynolds number is less than the 2300 , the flow is laminar.

Hydraulic entry lenght

lh = 0.05 x Re x Dh

Lh = 0.05 x 487.02 x 0.0333

= 0.811m

therefore,

thermal entry length = pr x lh

= 3.55 x 0.811

= 2.879m

laminar flow now, a/b value is

a/b = 0.05/0.0025

a/b = 2

note, the nusselt number for a/b = 2 is

Nu = 3.39

Heat transfer coefficient

h = k x Nu/Dh

h = 0.644 x3.39/0.333

= 65.56 w/m²k

The surface area =A

As = 2(a + b)L

A = 2 ( 0.05 + 0.025) 10

A = 1.5m²

the tube temperature

Te = Ts - (Ts-T1) esp [hAs/mcp]

80 = Ts- (Ts -20)esp[ 65.56 x 15/0.01 x 4181]

80 = Ts - (Ts - 20)exp[-2.352]

by solving this we get T = 86.31c

hence the surface temperature is 86.31c

An adiabatic gas turbine expands air at 1300 kPa and 500◦C to 100 kPa and 127◦C. Air enters the turbine through a 0.2-m2 opening

Viktor [21]

Given:

Pressure, $P_{1}$ = 1300 kPa

Temperature, $T_{1}$ = $500^{\circ}$

$P_{2}$ = 100 kPa

$T_{2} = 127^{\circ}$

velocity, v = 40 m/s

A = 1 $m^{2}$

Solution:

For air propertiess at

$P_{1}$ = 1300 kPa

$T_{1}$ = $500^{\circ}$

$h_{1}$ = 793kJ/K

$v_{1}$ = $0.172\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

and also at

$P_{2}$ = 100 kPa

$T_{2} = 127^{\circ}$

$h_{2}$ = 401 KJ/K

$v_{2}$ = $1.15\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

a) Mass flow rate is given by:

$m' = \frac{Av}{v_{1}}$

Now,

$m = \frac{0.2\times 40}{0.172}$ = 46.51 kg/s

b) for the power produced by turbine, $P = m'(h_{1} - h_{2})$

$P = 46.51\times(793 - 401)$ = 18.231 MW

Raul doesn’t feel like he needs to write down events that will happen months from now. Explain to him why it is important to use

MAXImum [283]

The primary reason for having a calendar is to organize the days, weeks, months and years. It keeps a track of which day of the week events fall and when special events are going to happen. Historically speaking calendars were often uses to preserve religious holidays and events.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Your car's owner's manual will provide a maintenance schedule designed to keep your brakes in good condition. Following it is the easiest way to avoid expense repairs and the potential for catastrophic brake failure. But at the very least, you should have your brakes inspected every year.

: During a heavy rainstorm, water from a parking lot completely fills an 18-in.- diameter, smooth, concrete storm sewer. If the

Montano1993 [528]

Answer

diameter of parking lot = 18 in

flowrate = 10 ft³/s

pressure drop = 100 ft

using general equation

$\dfrac{P_1}{\gamma}+\dfrac{v_1^2}{2g}+Z_1 = \dfrac{P_2{\gamma} + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2g} + Z_2 +\dfrac{fLV^2}{2\rho D}$

$V = \dfrac{Q}{A} = \dfrac{10}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(\dfrac{18}{12})^2} = 5.66\ ft/s$

$\Delta P = \gamma (Z_2-Z_1) +\dfrac{fLV^2}{2\rho D}$

taking f = 0.0185

at Z₁ = Z₂

$\Delta P = \dfrac{0.0185 \times 100\times 1.94\times 5.66^2}{2\dfrac{18}{12} (2)}$

ΔP = 0.266 psi

b) when flow is uphill z₂-z₁ = 2

$\Delta P =62.4\times 2 \times \dfrac{1}{144} +0.266$

$\Delta P= 1.13\ psi$

c) When flow is downhill z₂-z₁ = -2

$\Delta P =62.4\times 2 \times \dfrac{1}{144} +0.266$

$\Delta P=-0.601\ psi$

At a certain elevation, the pilot of a balloon has a mass of 120 lb and a weight of 119 lbf. What is the local acceleration of g

Crank

Answer:

1) g=31.87ft/s^2

2)m=120

W=119.64lbf

Explanation:

first part

the weight of a body with mass is calculated by the following equation

W=mg

we convert 120lb to slug

m=120lbx1slug/32.147lb=3.733slug

solving for g

g=W/m

g=119/3.733=31.87ft/s^2

second part

the mass is the same

m=120lb=3.733slug

Weight

W=3.733slug*32.05ft/s^2=119.64lbf
