Problem# 5.

The monkey jumping around a wind turbine catches the tip of the propeller. At time t = 0, the

propeller rotates with an initial frequency of 20 rpm and the diameter of the propeller is 12.0 m.

At t = 5.0s. Use 4.0 rad/s for final angualr velocity.

a) Express all required equations

b) Find the linear velocity of the monkey

c) Find the final angular velocity

d) Find the angular acceleration

e) Find the centripetal and the tangential acceleration

f) Find the magnitude and direction of acceleration

g) Find the total number of revolutions in rad and revolutions

A potential wind turbine location has an average wind speed of 5 m/s at a height of 10 m. A) Assuming a standard wind friction coefficient of 1/7, what is the average wind power per area at the proposed tower height of 80 m? B) If the proposed turbine has a cut-in speed of 4 m/s and a furling speed of 20 m/s, how many hours per year is the windmill not spinning (assuming Rayleigh statistics)? C) Estimate the yearly...

This is problem 5-5 from El-Wakil’s Powerplant Technology book -- steam expands ideally in a turbine from 2500 psia and 1000 degFahrenheit to 1 psia. Compare the maximum steam velocities and the number of stages required by (a) a velocity-compounded impulse turbine, (b) a pressure-compounded impulse turbine, and (c) a 50 percent reaction turbine if the optimum blade velocity may not exceed 885 ft/s in any of them. Take all nozzle angles to be 25°.

This is problem 5-17 from El-Wakil’s Powerplant Technology book -- consider a simple combination turbine with one Delaval impulse stage and one 60 percent reaction stage. The nozzle of impulse stage receives steam at 900 psia and 900°F and leaves it at 300 psia. The nozzle efficiency is 97 percent and its angle is 20°. The blade speed is optimum and its velocity coefficient is 0.95. The impulse stage is followed on the same shaft by the reaction stage which...
