Question 3 The wind resource at hub-height for a wind turbine with rated wind speed 11 m/s and cut- in wind speed 3.9 m/s is described by a Weibull distribution with a shape factor 1.7 and a scale factor 8.5 m/s. Give the number of hours per year during which the wind turbine is generating but below its rated power (Take a full year as 8760 hours)

A Francis radial-flow hydroturbine has the following dimensions, where location 2 is the inlet and location 1 is the outlet: r2 = 2.00 m, r1 = 1.30 m, b2 = 0.85 m, and b1 = 2.10 m. The runner blade angles are ?2 = 71.4° and ?1 = 15.3° at the turbine inlet and outlet, respectively. The runner rotates at n. = 160 rpm. The volume flow rate at design conditions is 80.0 m3/s. Irreversible losses are neglected in this preliminary analysis. Calculate the angle ?2 through which the wicket gates should turn the flow, where ?2 is measured from the radial direction at the runner inlet. Calculate the swirl angle ?1, where ?1 is measured from the radial direction at the runner outlet. Does this turbine have forward or reverse swirl? Predict the power output (MW) and required net head (m).
A scale model of a pump has been tested and the following results obtained. Impeller diameter (D) 110mm Power input (P) 2.5kW Speed (N) 1500 r.p.m. Flow (Q) 14.5 litres/sec Head (H) 17m Efficiency (E) 60% You are to determine the speed and size of a geometrically similar pump which would deliver a flow rate of 25 litres/sec against a 22m resistance head. Determine the power input required by this pump.
Consider the impact of a 2 kg bird at the free end of an aircraft wing. The bird is moving at a speed of 10 m/s towards the aircraft. Speed of aircraft is 105 m. Model the aircraft wing as a beam of rectangular cross section having 3 m length, 0.05 m thickness and 0.5m width. During impact, compute a) the static equivalent force on the aircraft wing b)the maximum deflection of the wing
