Steam enters the nozzle of an impulse turbine stage at 60 bar and 500 °C and leaves at 20 bar. Flow is adiabatic and reversible. The nozzle angle is 20°. The moving blade is symmetric, travels at optimum velocity, and assumed to be frictionless. It is also assumed that there is neither expansion nor contraction of the steam flow through the blade passage. Draw the velocity diagram and calculate (a) the blade efficiency and (b) the stage efficiency.

Steel Structures

The rolling process is one of the most frequently used forming processes for producing steel sections. Nonetheless, other forming and fabrication processes can be used to create a range of section shapes in the steel production process. For this assignment, you are required to review the other four types of steel forming/fabricating processes including drawing (manufacturing), extrusion, casting and forging.

HEAT TRANSFER QUESTION

A shell-and-tube heat exchanger with one shell pass and four tube passes, that contains 190 pipes (thin walled, 4m long, 2.6 cm diameter), will be used to heat the air.
