Nitrogen (N2) at 1 bar, 300 K enters a compressor operating at steady state and is compressed adiabatically to an exit state of 16 bar, 750 K. The N2 is modeled as an ideal gas and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the work input, in kJ per kg of N2 flowing, the rate of entropy production, in kJ/K per kg of N2 flowing, and the isentropic compressor efficiency.

Consider a machine that has a natural process time of 1 minute (deterministic) when it works but is subject to failures with MTTF=100 minutes and MTTR=10 minutes. Assume cr=1. This machine receives parts every 1.5 minutes from the previous process (deterministic).

a. What is the availability of this machine?

    

b. What is the average effective process time, te, for this machine?

c. What is the squared coefficient of variation of the process time, ce2?

d. How long does the average part wait in queue in front of this machine before being served?

Suppose you are observing parts come out of this machine.

e. What is the average rate with which parts depart this machine and arrive to the next machine?

f. What is the squared coefficient of variation of inter-departure times from this machine?

Water flowing at a rate of 0.667 kg/s (Cp = 4.192 kJ/kg. K) enters a counter current heat exchanger at 318 K and is heated by an oil stream entering at 393 K at a rate of 2.85 kg/s (Cp=1.89 kJ/kg. K). The overall U=290 W/m2. K and the area A=20 m2. Calculate the heat transfer rate and the exit water temperature.

Plot longitudinal tensile strength of an E-glass/epoxy unidirectionally reinforced composite as a function of volume fraction of fiber and assuming tensile strength follows a volume rule of additivity.

E-glass: modulus = 72.4 GPa, tensile break strength = 2.4 GPa, break strain = 2.6%

epoxy: modulus = 3.5 GPa, tensile break strength = 45 MPa, break strain = 1.28%
