A renowned automotive company has 1798 cc inline-4 engines working on Atkinson cycle (by late closing of intake valves during compression stroke). It has minimum compression ratio of 6.5:1 and expansion ratio of 13.5:1. If at part load conditions the pressure at the begining of compression stroke is 80 kPa and the temperature at the start of compression stroke is 60C. (Use gasoline with QHV value = 43000 kJ/kg, AF=19, Combustion Efficiency = 97% and EGR=20%). Do complete thermodynamic analysis

7- Consider the case of two airplanes of the same type and c.g. position but of different gross weights. The use of the maximum coefficient of braking friction will bring both airplanes to a stop in the same distance. As a result, both airplanes would have identical acceleration and identical stop distances from a given velocity. What is the principal difference between the two airplanes as they reach a stop?

An incompressible fluid oscillates harmonically (V = V0 sin(wt), where V is the velocity) with a certain frequency in a 19 cm diameter pipe. A 1/4 scale model is to be used to determine the pressure difference per unit length, ∆?? at any instant along the pipe. Assume that ∆?? = ?(?, ?0,?,?,?,?)

Where D is the pipe diameter, ω the frequency, t the time, μ the fluid viscosity, and ρ the fluid density.

a) Determine the similarity requirements for the model and the prediction equation for ∆??.

A solar-thermal plant is used to produce power. A molten salt transfers heat to a non-ideal Rankine cycle to produce electricity from a turbine. The molten salt has an average temperature of 800 oC when transferring heat to the boiler in the Rankine cycle. The condenser for the power cycle exchanges heats with water in a river that is at 20 oC. The steam flow rate through the cycle is 10 kg/s. The inlet of the boiler is at 9 MPa absolute and steam leaves the boiler at 9 MPa absolute and 600 oC. The exit of the turbine operates is at 20 kPa absolute and has a quality of 95%. The exit of the condenser is at 20 kPa absolute and is a saturated liquid.

Draw a diagram of the Rankine cycle. Include all the unit operations (pieces of equipment). Show the direction of flow and where heat and work enters and leaves the cycle. Number the streams in the cycle. State proper assumptions.

1. What is the power consumption for the pump (in MW), the power produced by the turbine (in MW), the thermal efficiency of the cycle?

2. What is the maximum thermal efficiency that a heat engine can have operating between the temperatures of the heat source molten salt and heat sink river? Why should the efficiency calculated would be less than this maximum? List at least four places in the cycle that contribute to the real plant having a lower thermal efficiency than the maximum.

A piston-cylinder device initially has a volume of 1.5 m3 containing steam at 300 kPa absolute and 150 oC. It is then heated so it expands at constant pressure until it reaches a temperature of 400 oC.

2. How much heat is added to the cylinder, in kJ, during the expansion? State your assumptions.

3. Assuming there are no irreversibilities during the expansion; S.GEN=0, does the entropy of the steam decrease, remain constant, or increase during the expansion? Explain your answer.

• Find a word, number or name.The only restrictions are that it must have at least four characters, and must include at least one horizontal, vertical, angled, and curved segment each  [ example: LOVE ].
• Find parameterizations for the each characters in your word, in the xy-plane. At any time the "plotter" can only be at one location and hence the different curves making up your characters must utilize distinct time intervals!
• If F(x,y) = (xy²) i + (x²y) j is the force field acting on the plotter tip as it traces out your characters, calculate the total work done in plotting your word
• Draw typical velocity and acceleration vectors at various points along the curves of each character (on print-out).
• Calculate and graph the speed (as a function of time) along each character.
• Calculate and graph the Normal and Tangential component of the acceleration vectors (as a function of time), at least 2 locations on each character.
• Calculate and graph the curvature (as a function of time) along each character.
