Answer: A

Original length = 1.60 m

Explanation: given that due to loading, a line segment has length 2 with constant normal strain 0.25

Strain is the ratio of extension to original length. That is,

Strain = e/L

If a line segment has length 2, that means:

e + L = 2

e = 2 - L

And given that the strain = 0.25

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

0.25 = ( 2 - L ) / L

Cross multiply

0.25L = 2 - L

Collect the like terms

0.25L + L = 2

1.25L = 2

L = 2/ 1.25

L = 1.6 m

Therefore, original length is 1.6 metres

The closed tank of a fire engine is partly filled with water, the air space above being under pressure. A 6 cm bore connected to

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The air pressure in the tank is 53.9 $kN/m^{2}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Discharge rate, Q = 20 litres/ sec = $0.02\ m^{3}/s$

(Since, 1 litre = $10^{-3} m^{3}$ )

Diameter of the bore, d = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Head loss due to friction, $H_{loss} = 45 cm = 0.45\ m$

Height, $h_{roof} = 2.5\ m$

Now,

The velocity in the bore is given by:

$v = \frac{Q}{\pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2}}$

$v = \frac{0.02}{\pi (\frac{0.06}{2})^{2}} = 7.07\ m/s$

Now, using Bernoulli's eqn:

$\frac{P}{\rho g} + \frac{v^{2}}{2g} + h = k$ (1)

The velocity head is given by:

$\frac{v_{roof}^{2}}{2g} = \frac{7.07^{2}}{2\times 9.8} = 2.553$

Now, by using energy conservation on the surface of water on the roof and that in the tank :

$\frac{P_{tank}}{\rho g} + \frac{v_{tank}^{2}}{2g} + h_{tank} = \frac{P_{roof}}{\rho g} + \frac{v_{tank}^{2}}{2g} + h_{roof} + H_{loss}$

$\frac{P_{tank}}{\rho g} + 0 + 0 = \0 + 2.553 + 2.5 + 0.45$

$P_{tank} = 5.5\times \rho \times g$

$P_{tank} = 5.5\times 1\times 9.8 = 53.9\ kN/m^{2}$

Superheated steam at an average temperature 200 C is transported through a steel pipe (k=50 W/mK, D_0=8.0 cm,D_i=6.0 cm,and L=20

Zarrin [17]

The total amount of daily heat transfer is 1382.38 M w.

The temperature on the outside surface of the gypsum plaster insulation is 17.96 ° C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data,

$T_{\infty}$ = 10° C

$h_{0}$ = 250 w/ $m^{2}$ k

Pipe length = 20 m

Inner diameter $d_{1}$ = 6 cm, $r_{1}$ = 3 cm

Outer diameter $d_{2}$ = 8 cm, $r_{2}$ = 4 cm

The thickness of insulation is 4 cm.

$r_{3}$ = $r_{2}$ + 4

= 4+4

$r_{3}$ = 8 cm

$h_{0}$ is the heat transfer coefficient of convection inside, $h_{i}$ is the heat transfer coefficient of convection outside.

The heat transfer rate between ambient and steam is

$q=\frac{T_{S}-T_{\infty}}{\frac{1}{h_{i}\left(2 \pi r_{1} L\right)}+\frac{\ln \left(r_{2} / r_{1}\right)}{2 \pi K_{1} L}+\frac{\ln \left(r_{3}/ r_{2}\right)}{2 \pi K_{2} L}+\frac{1}{h_{0}\left(2 \pi r_{3} L\right)}}$ watt

= $\begin{aligned}&\frac{1}{800(2 \pi x \cdot 03 \times 20)}\++\frac{\ln (4 / 3)}{2 \pi \times 50 \times 20}+\frac{\ln (8 / 4)}{2 \pi \times 0.5 \times 20}+\frac{1}{200(2 \pi x \cdot 08 \times 20)}\end{aligned}$ watt

= $\frac{190}{0.0003317+0.0000458+0.0110+0.0004976}$ watt

q = 15999.86 watt

The total amount of daily heat transfer = 15999.86 × 86400

= 1382.387904 watt

= 1382.38 M w

The total amount of daily heat transfer is 1382.38 M w.

b) The temperature on the outside surface of the gypsum plaster insulation.

q = $\frac{T_{3}-T_{\infty}}{\frac{1}{\ln \left(2 \pi \ r_{3} L\right)}}$

15999.86 $=\frac{\frac{1}{T_3}-10}{\frac{1}{200(2 \pi . 08 \times 20)}}$

$T_{3}$ - 10 = 7.96

$T_{3}$ = 17.96 ° C.
