A small community of 50 members in Bidiya has decided to build a
mini biogas plant in their area. The waste required for biogas
production was collected from different the cows grazing in the
farm. Daily consumption of gas per person is a person is 500
liters. Take the specific gravity of the slurry as 1.165 gram/cm 3.
For a retention period of sixty-three days design a bio digester.
What would be your conclusion regarding the amount of biogas
produced in a day, energy generated by the plant in a year, number
of cows required to produce the required waste? If 20 more members
are joined to this community, what is your suggestion on meeting
their daily requirement of gas? Justify your answers with valid
data. Also discuss the factors influencing the performance of
various stages such as collection stage, anaerobic stage and power
generation stage of the entire system.

1- If the velocity head is 250 mm then what is the velocity of the fluid.
2-A tube, open at both ends, is placed into water at constant temperature. How high does the water rise within the tube in mm? The diameter of the tube is 10 mm. Assume the contact angle is zero.
3- You measure air to have a velocity of 45 m/s in a pipe of radius 2 cm. The pipe then expands until its cross-sectional area is 17 cm2 . What is the velocity after the expansion?
4- A dam retains water to a depth 50 % of its height. The height of the wall is 15 m. What is the resultant force on the dam, per meter of dam wall width in kN/m?

Two reservoirs have a difference in height of 10 meters at the free surface. They are connected by two pipes in series; the first tube is 20 m long and has a diameter of 6 cm. The second tube is 10 meters long with a diameter of 10 cm. At the change in tubes, an expander (θ = 20°) is fitted, there are two 90° bends (flanged) in the second section of piping Assuming f = 0.0216 for both tubes, what is the flow rate?

Humans are the most capable beings. Physical, mental, emotional
and spiritual potentials of people
or their exergies are very high. But many people are scarred by
very little of their exergies and the rest are wasted
he allows me to go. Based on your experiences, physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual exergies within 24 hours
draw 4 graphs showing the change over time. How much of the
exergies indicated on the charts within 24 hours
and show that you've taken advantage of it. By looking at these
charts, you decide that you are evaluating or wasting your
life
give me that. How do you think the portion of exergia you benefit
from can be increased.

A company that manufactures turbines of different sizes has been ordered to manufacture 30 large turbines. According to this order, within the next 5 months, the company should produce 2, 3, 5, 8 and 12 turbines respectively. 30,000 man hours of direct labor were used for the production of the first turbine. Based on past experiences from similar productions, the learning rate was determined to be 90%. Accordingly, it is estimated that 27,000 man-hours of direct labour is required for the manufacture of the second turbine. A worker works an average of 150 hours a month. Accordingly, during the next 5 months, estimate the number of workers to be employed for each month in order to grow the order.The distribution of order quantities by month is given in Table 1.

200-mm-square, 10-mm-thick tile has the thermophysical
properties of Pyrex ( 0.80) and emerges from a curing
process at an initial temperature of
Ti 140C. The backside of the tile is insulated while
the upper surface is exposed to ambient air and surroundings
at 25C.(a) Estimate the time required for the tile to cool to a
final,
safe-to-touch temperature of Tf 40C. Use an average
tile surface temperature of T
–
(Ti Tf)/2 to
estimate the average free convection coefficient and
the linearized radiation coefficient. How sensitive is
your estimate to the assumed value for T
–
?
(b) Estimate the required cooling time if ambient air is
blown in parallel flow over the tile with a velocity
of 10 m/s.

A rigid reservoir with 3 m3 volume is connected to a supply line.
Initially the valve is closed and the reservoir contains steam at 800 kPa, and x = 0.8 quality.
The valve is opened and steam is allowed until the final pressure is 2.5 MPa and 250 C.
a- Determine the mass of steam entered to the reservoir.
b- If the pressure is 3.5 MPa and temperature is 350 C at the supply line, evaluate the transferred heat in kJ, and determine the direction of the heat.
