Air flows through a 8-in-diameter, 60-ft-long adiabatic duct with inlet conditions of V1= 550 ft/s, T01= 650 R, and P1= 50 psia. For an average friction factor of 0.03, determine the velocity, temperature, and pressure at the exit of the duct. Please DO NOT merely copy other expert's work. I would like original work.

a) An open cycle gas turbine engine consists of a compressor, a combustion chamber and a two-stage turbine with a re-heater. The gas enters the compressor at a temperature of 15 C. The pressure ratio of the compressor, which is 90% efficient, is 12. The combustion gas enters the first stage turbine at 1100 C. Both stages of the turbine are 95% efficient. The first stage has a pressure ratio of 4, whereas that of the second stage is 3. The re-heater heats the gas to 1050 C. Assume that the specific heat at constant pressure is equal to 1.005kJ/kgK during compression, and equal to 1.130kJ/kgK during combustion and expansion.
i. Draw the T – s diagram for the cycle marking all necessary state points and given data.
ii.Evaluate the cycle efficiency.
iii. The required power output of the engine is 100kW. Calculate the required mass flow rate of gas.

global leader in developing, manufacturing, selling and servicing
diagnostic imaging and therapeutic medical devices used to diagnose
and treat cardiovascular and other diseases. MERMED earned $300
million of revenue in 2015, while employing more than 10,000 people
worldwide. One of it’s manufacturing plants is located in Dingle,
Co. Kerry, Ireland. Tom Jones is the plant manager at the Dingle
facility.
The Dingle site runs 12 hour shifts, 7 days a week. It has 1000
employees. It manufactures a variety of of medical devices
(including Class III devices). A number of it's products are sold
in the US and European markets. The facility has a Quality
Management System in place. Their Quality Management System is in
compliance with ISO 13485:2016 and 21 CFR 820. Their facility is
frequently audited by Notified Bodies and the FDA.
The site was recently audited by corporate. The corporate auditing team were checking the site's compliance with ISO 13485:2016 and 21 CFR 820. The auditors found a number of potential non-conformances to ISO 13485:2016 and 21 CFR 820.
You must complete 4 tasks (for each of the 5 incidents/questions):
1. Review each of these potential non-conformances (5 incidents in total)
2. Determine if they are non-conformances against the requirements of the ISO13485:2016 AND 21 CFR 820.
3. If they are non-compliances, write down the specific clause numbers in ISO 13485:2016 AND specific section number of 21 CFR 820 which is applicable (write down the main clause/section in each regulation that the non-compliance is against).
Note: ISO 13485:2016 and 21 CFR 820 are available in the "Additional Resources" section, under the section heading "Quality Systems Regulations (EU and US)" (contained within Section A Medical Device Regulatory Affairs).
4. Briefly EXPLAIN your decision in 100-170 words.
QUESTION 4
The operation of a weighing scale (equipments ID 186749) was reviewed by the inspector in the Box Packing section. The weighing scale was in use during the current shift. The operating procedure (SOP18654) for the scale states that it must be calibrated at the beginning and end of each shift. The operating procedure states that that the calibration of the scales is recorded in a log book(Calibration Log for ID 186749 ). The inspector asked to review this log book. The maintenance technician who was interviewed said that the log book was held by the maintenance technician on the night shift and he always kept it in his desk drawer which was locked.

Case Heavenly Chocolates Web Site Transactions .
Heavenly Chocolates manufactures and sells quality chocolate products at its plant and retail store located in Saratoga Springs, New York. Two years ago, the company developed a Web site and began selling its products over the Internet. Web site sales have exceeded the company’s expectations, and management is now considering strategies to increase sales even further. To learn more about the Web site customers, a sample of 50 Heavenly Chocolate transactions was selected from the previous month’s sales. Data showing the day of the week each transaction was made, the type of browser the customer used, the time spent on the Web site, the number of Web site pages viewed, and the amount spent by each of the 50 customers are contained in the file named Shoppers.
A portion of the data is shown in the table that follows:
Customer | Day | Browser | Time (Min) | Pages Viewed | Amount Spent ($) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Mon | IE | 12.0 | 4 | 54.52 |
2 | Wed | Other | 19.5 | 6 | 94.90 |
3 | Mon | IE | 8.5 | 4 | 26.68 |
4 | Tues | Firefox | 11.4 | 2 | 44.73 |
5 | Wed | IE | 11.3 | 4 | 66.27 |
6 | Sat | Firefox | 10.5 | 6 | 67.80 |
7 | Sun | IE | 11.4 | 2 | 36.04 |
48 | Fri | IE | 9.7 | 5 | 103.15 |
49 | Mon | Other | 7.3 | 6 | 52.15 |
50 | Fri | IE | 13.4 | 3 | 98.75 |
Heavenly Chocolates Web Site Transactions Heavenly Chocolates would like to use the sample data to determine whether online shoppers who spend more time and view more pages also spend more money during their visit to the Web site. The company would also like to investigate the effect that the day of the week and the type of browser have on sales.

2. A centrifugal pump running at 750 rpm with a 1-m-diameter impeller generates
the following pressure rise and flow rate data while pumping water at room temperature:
?(dot)[m^3/s]= [0, 0.0278, 0.0417, 0.0556, 0.0694, 0.0833, 0.0903, 0.0972]
?P [kPa]= [361, 349, 328, 293, 230, 145, 114, 59]
Estimate the pressure rise and flow rate for impeller speeds of 500 and 1000 rpm using the 750 rpm data. Plot pressure rise (y-axis) vs flow rate (x-axis) for all three pump speeds and include all data on a single graph.

1. For airflow through a fan, the mechanical energy balance with fan work along with conservation of mass are:
-W(dot)fan=sum((m(dot)_exit)*(e_exit)) - sum((m(dot)_inlet)*(e_inlet))
so...
0=sum(m(dot)_exit) - sum(m(dot)_inlet)
Using the mechanical energy balance and conservation of mass, show that the theoretical fan power added to the air is flow rate multiplied by the pressure rise:
W(dot)fan=?*?*P

A heat engine running backward is called a refrigerator if its purpose is to extract heat from a cold reservoir. The same engine running backward is called a heat pump if its purpose is to exhaust warm air into the hot reservoir. Heat pumps are widely used for home heating. You can think of a heat pump as a refrigerator that is cooling the already cold outdoors and, with its exhaust heat Q H , warming the indoors. Perhaps this seems a little silly, but consider the following. Electricity can be directly used to heat a home by passing an electric current through a heating coil. This is a direct, 100 % conversion of work to heat. That is, 16.0 \rm kW of electric power (generated by doing work at the rate 16.0 kJ/s at the power plant) produces heat energy inside the home at a rate of 16.0 kJ/s . Suppose that the neighbor's home has a heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 6.00, a realistic value. NOTE: With a refrigerator, "what you get" is heat removed. But with a heat pump, "what you get" is heat delivered. So the coefficient of performance of a heat pump is K= Q H / W in . An average price for electricity is about 40 MJ per dollar. A furnace or heat pump will run typically 300 hours per month during the winter. (Part A How much electric power (in kW ) does the heat pump use to deliver 16.0 kJ/s of heat energy to the house? /Part B What does one month's heating cost in the home with a 16.0 kW electric heater? & Part C What does one month's heating cost in the home of a neighbor who uses a heat pump to provide the same amount of heating?
