Briefly list and discuss all of the structural components, and layout, found in the fuselage of a Boeing 747-300/400. Including, but not limited to, cockpit, hatches, doors, or other openings, and any ancillary components (eg landing gear, undercarriage).

Develop the formula for friction factor ‘f’. Keeping in mind the Re# should always be in turbulent region. What value of D should be selected to get turbulent flow. Start the value from 0.01m try to find the value of D to have the turbulent flow. Use Excel Solver tool and demonstrate how it can be used to calculate friction factor ‘f’ for a given Re# and relative roughness ?. The friction factor is desired for water flowing at 0.063 m3 /s through a cast iron pipe with a diameter of 2.75m. Using Colebrook Formula calculate friction factor. And compare it with f being taken from Moody Diagram in your text book “Fluid Mechanics by Munson”

Humid air at 300 kPa, 10°C, and 90% relative humidity is heated in a pipe at constant pressure to 50°C. Calculate the amount of heat, in kJ/kg dry air, required

The flowrate for water traveling through a horizontal 300 m-long cast iron pipe with a diameter of 0.6 m and a pressure drop of 17.2 kPa is to be found. P.S. use iterative approach to find values of f and then V using that f.

In a gas turbine of a thermoelectric plant a regenerator is used that preheats the air before it enters the combustion chamber. You have the options of a backflow heat exchanger or a shell heat exchanger and two tube passages. The air leaves the compressor at a temperature of 350 C and the exhaust gases have a temperature of 700 C. The mass flow in both cases is 5 kg / sec. The overall transfer coefficient is 75 w / m2 K. In both cases the area is 18 m2. Find the best posible exchanger.

The paper rolls, shown in the figure below, are 0.9 m OD x 0.22 m ID x 3.23 m long and have a density of 984 kg/m3 . The rolls are transferred from the machine conveyor (not shown) to the forklift truck by the V-linkage of the off-loading system, which isrotated through 90o by an air cylinder. The paper then rolls onto the waiting forks of the truck.

Question: Assume that the crank arm is a solid rectangularsection. Working on a factor ofsafety of 5, determine suitable dimensions for this arm. Select (providing reasons) a material for this crank arm. b) Due the misalignment of the loading (refer 2c), the force is offset from the loading axis by 15o . Determine the bending stresses at each of the four corners of the arm cross section. Also determine the position of the neutral axis. Illustrate the stress distribution and neutral axis on a sketch of the section.
