(30%) Q5. Composition of gas in diesel engine after combustion
engine is 5% oxygen, 20% carbon dioxide, 15% water vapor, and
remaining is nitrogen gas in volume. Temperature and pressure of
the gas is 1800K and 6 MPa. This gas is isentropically expanded to
the atmospheric pressure. Use air standard assumption.
a) Calculate the required properties of gas mixture (specific
heats, gas constant, etc.)
b) Calculate the power generated expansion for per kg of
mixture.
c) What is the temperature of gas after the expansion process.

Consider a large plate of thickness 50 mm and thermal conductivity of k= 69 W/m.C in which heat is generated uniformly at a constant rate of 600 kW/m3. One side of the plate is insulated while the other side is subjected to convection to the environment at 30oC with a heat transfer coefficient of h= 94 W/m^2.C. considering six equal spaced nodes with a nodal spacing of 10 mm:
(a) obtain the Finite Difference formulation of this problem,
(b) determine the nodal temperature under steady conditions by solving those equations (MANUALLY),
(c) repeat (b) by solving the equations using any software available,
(d) obtain the analytical solution of the temperature variation by applying Boundary Conditions, (e) sketch ONE graph showing the temperature value of those nodes that obtained from part b and d

Air flows down a pipe with a diameter of 0.15 m. At the inlet to the pipe, the Mach number is 0.1, the pressure is 70 kPa, and the temperature is 35°C. If the flow can be assumed to be adiabatic and if the mean friction factor is 0.005, determine the length of the pipe if the Mach number at the exit is 0.6. Also, find the pressure and temperature at the exit to the pipe.

Why can't I use the sum of force(about y axis) =0 at point P? I used this method to get the tension in the cord at first of solution, but gotten wrong answer.

What is brake mean effective pressure (bmep)? Is it a
work term or is it a pressure term? Write the formula/equation for
bmep. Make a table of typical maximum values (range of values) of
bmep for various engines.
Note: In engine design calculations, the displacement required to
provide a given torque or power at a given speed can be estimated
by assuming appropriate values of bmep for that particular
application. Engineers typically remember these values.
