a centrifugal pump delivers water at the rate of 50kg/is . the inlet and outlet pressure are 2 bar and 6.2 bar respectively. the

suction is 2.2 m below the center of the pump and delivery is 8.5 m above the above the center of the pump. the suction and delivery pipe diameter are 200 mm and 100 mm respectively. determine the capacity of the electric motor considering the efficiency of motor as 80℅to run the pump.​

Answer:

21.6 kw

Explanation:

Given data:

m = 50 kg/s

Inlet pressure (p1) = 2 bar

outlet pressure(p2) = 6.2 bar

suction ( h1 ) = -2.2 m

delivery ( h2 ) = 8.5 m

d1 = 200 mm = 0.2 m

d2 = 100 mm = 0.1 m

Vs of water = 0.001 m^3/kg

next we have to determine the Q value

Q = V*A

Q = 0.001 * 50 = 0.05 m^3/s

next we have to calculate the various V's

V1 = Q/A1 = \frac{0.05*4}{\pi *0.2^2}  = 1.59 m/s

V2 = Q/A2 = \frac{0.05*4}{\pi *0.1^2} = 6.37 m/s

Determine the capacity of the electric motor

attached below is the detailed solution

kozerog [31]

Answer:

a)Wt =25.68 lbf

b)Wt = 150 lbf

F= 899.59 N

Explanation:

Given that

g = 5.48 ft/s^2.

m= 150 lbm

a)

Weight on the spring scale(Wt) = m g

We know that

1\ lbf=32.17 \ lmb.ft/s^2

Wt = 150 x 5.48/32 lbf

Wt =25.68 lbf

b)

On the beam scale

This is scale which does not affects by gravitational acceleration.So the wight on the beam scale will be 150 lbf.

Wt = 150 lbf

If the plane is moving upward with acceleration 6 g's then the for F

F = m a

We know that

1\ ft/s^2= 0.304\ m/s^2

5.48\ ft/s^2= 1.66\ m/s^2

a=6 g's

a=9.99\ m/s^2

So

F = 90 x 9.99 N

F= 899.59 N

. A piston-cylinder device whose piston is resting on top of a set of stops initially contains 0.5 kg of helium gas at 100 kPa a
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Qin = 1857 kJ

Explanation:

Given

m = 0.5 Kg

T₁ = 25°C = (25 + 273) K = 298 K

P₁ = 100 kPa

P₂ = 500 kPa

First, the temperature when the piston starts rising is determined from the ideal gas equations at the initial state and at that state:

T₂ = T₁*P₂/P₁

⇒  T₂ = 298 K*(500 kPa/100 kPa) = 1490 K

Until the piston starts rising no work is done so the heat transfer is the change in internal energy

Qin = ΔU = m*cv*(T₂-T₁)

⇒   Qin = 0.5*3.1156*(1490 - 298) kJ = 1857 kJ

The 8-mm-thick bottom of a 220-mm-diameter pan may be made from aluminum (k = 240 W/m ⋅ K) or copper (k = 390 W/m ⋅ K). When use
Artemon [7]

Answer:

For aluminum 110.53 C

For copper 110.32 C

Explanation:

Heat transmission through a plate (considering it as an infinite plate, as in omitting the effects at the borders) follows this equation:

q = \frac{k * A * (th - tc)}{d}

Where

q: heat transferred

k: conduction coeficient

A: surface area

th: hot temperature

tc: cold temperature

d: thickness of the plate

Rearranging the terms:

d * q = k * A * (th - tc)

\frac{d * q}{k * A} = th - tc

th = \frac{d * q}{k * A} + tc

The surface area is:

A = \frac{\pi * d^2}{4}

A = \frac{\pi * 0.22^2}{4} = 0.038 m^2

If the pan is aluminum:

th = \frac{0.008 * 600}{240 * 0.038} + 110 = 110.53 C

If the pan is copper:

th = \frac{0.008 * 600}{390 * 0.038} + 110 = 110.32 C
