A well-insulated tank in a vapor power plant operates at steady state. Saturated liquid water enters at inlet 1 at a rate of 125

kompoz [17]

Answer:

a. The mass flow rate (in lbm/s) is 135lbm/s

b. The temperature (in o F) is 200.8°F

Explanation:

We assume that potential energy and kinetic energy are negligible and the control volume operates at a steady state.

Given

a. The mass flow rate (in lbm/s) is 135lbm/s

b.

m1 = Rate at inlet 1 = 125lbm/s

m2 = Rate at inlet 2 = 10lbm/s

The mass flow rate (in lbm/s) is calculated as m1 + m2

Mass flow rate = 125lbm/s + 10lbm/s

Mass flow rate = 135lbm/s

Hence, the mass flow rate (in lbm/s) is 135lbm/s

b. To calculate the temperature.

First we need to determine the enthalpy h1 at 14.7psia

Using table A-3E (thermodynamics)

h1 = 180.15 Btu/Ibm

h2 at 14.7psia and 60°F = 28.08 Btu/Ibm

Calculating h3 using the following formula

h3 = (h1m1 + h2m2) / M3

h3 = (180.15 * 125 + 28.08 * 10)/135

h3 = 168.8855555555555

h3 = 168.89 Btu/Ibm

To get the final temperature; we make use of table A-2E of thermodynamics.

Because h3 < h1, it means the liquid is at a compressed state.

The corresponding temperature at h3 = 168.89 is 200.8°F

The temperature (in o F) is 200.8°F

A three-phase line has an impedance of 0.4 j2.7 ohms per phase. The line feeds two balanced three-phase loads that are connected

Viktor [21]

Answer:

a. The magnitude of the line source voltage is

Vs = 4160 V

b. Total real and reactive power loss in the line is

Ploss = 12 kW

Qloss = j81 kvar

Sloss = 12 + j81 kVA

c. Real power and reactive power supplied at the sending end of the line

Ss = 540.046 + j476.95 kVA

Ps = 540.046 kW

Qs = j476.95 kvar

Explanation:

a. The magnitude of the line voltage at the source end of the line.

The voltage at the source end of the line is given by

Vs = Vload + (Total current×Zline)

Complex power of first load:

S₁ = 560.1 < cos⁻¹(0.707)

S₁ = 560.1 < 45° kVA

Complex power of second load:

S₂ = P₂×1 (unity power factor)

S₂ = 132×1

S₂ = 132 kVA

S₂ = 132 < cos⁻¹(1)

S₂ = 132 < 0° kVA

Total Complex power of load is

S = S₁ + S₂

S = 560.1 < 45° + 132 < 0°

S = 660 < 36.87° kVA

Total current is

I = S*/(3×Vload) ( * represents conjugate)

The phase voltage of load is

Vload = 3810.5/√3

Vload = 2200 V

I = 660 < -36.87°/(3×2200)

I = 100 < -36.87° A

The phase source voltage is

Vs = Vload + (Total current×Zline)

Vs = 2200 + (100 < -36.87°)×(0.4 + j2.7)

Vs = 2401.7 < 4.58° V

The magnitude of the line source voltage is

Vs = 2401.7×√3

Vs = 4160 V

b. Total real and reactive power loss in the line.

The 3-phase real power loss is given by

Ploss = 3×R×I²

Where R is the resistance of the line.

Ploss = 3×0.4×100²

Ploss = 12000 W

Ploss = 12 kW

The 3-phase reactive power loss is given by

Qloss = 3×X×I²

Where X is the reactance of the line.

Qloss = 3×j2.7×100²

Qloss = j81000 var

Qloss = j81 kvar

Sloss = Ploss + Qloss

Sloss = 12 + j81 kVA

c. Real power and reactive power supplied at the sending end of the line

The complex power at sending end of the line is

Ss = 3×Vs×I*

Ss = 3×(2401.7 < 4.58)×(100 < 36.87°)

Ss = 540.046 + j476.95 kVA

So the sending end real power is

Ps = 540.046 kW

So the sending end reactive power is

Qs = j476.95 kvar

To unload a bound stack of plywood from a truck, the driver first tilts the bed of the truck and then accelerates from rest. Kno

azamat

Answer:

a) The truck must have an acceleration of at least 3.92 * cos(θ)^2 for the stack to start sliding.

b) a = 2.94 * cos(θ)^2 + 0.32 * L * cos(θ)

Explanation:

The stack of plywood has a certain mass. The weight will depend on that mass.

w = m * g

There will be a normal reaction between the stack and the bed of the truck, this will be:

nr = -m * g * cos(θ)

Being θ the tilt angle of the bed.

The static friction force will be:

ffs = - m * g * cos(θ) * fJK

The dynamic friction force will be:

ffd = - m * g * cos(θ) * fik

These forces would produce accelerations

affs = -g * cos(θ) * fJK

affd = -g * cos(θ) * fik

affs = -9.81 * cos(θ) * 0.4 = -3.92 * cos(θ)

affd = -9.81 * cos(θ) * 0.3 = -2.94 * cos(θ)

These accelerations oppose to movement and must be overcome by another acceleration to move the stack.

The acceleration of the truck is horizontal, the horizontal component of these friction forces is:

affs = -3.92 * cos(θ)^2

affd = -2.94 * cos(θ)^2

The truck must have an acceleration of at least 3.92 * cos(θ)^2 for the stack to start sliding.

Assuming the bed has a lenght L.

The horizontal movement will be over a distance cos(θ) * L because L is tilted.

Movement under constant acceleration:

X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

In this case X0 = 0, V0 = 0, and a will be the sum of the friction force minus the acceleration of the truck.

If we set the frame of reference with the origin on the initial position of the stack and the positive X axis pointing backwards, the acceleration of the truck will now be negative and the dynamic friction acceleration positive.

L * cos(θ) = 1/2 * (2.94 * cos(θ)^2 - a) * 0.4^2

2.94 * cos(θ)^2 - a = 2 * 0.16 * L * cos(θ)

a = 2.94 * cos(θ)^2 + 0.32 * L * cos(θ)

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
