An engineer was tasked with evaluating a heat and power generation unit for an aluminium smelting plant. The management intends to expand the production facilities to meet growing demand for aluminium. The plan involves increasing the energy intensive smelting line from the present single line to three lines by end of 2022. To support the expansion plan, the company plans to install a self-sufficient power generation unit. Details of the energy requirement and the proposed power generation unit is given the following Table. Item Description Power requirement per smelting processing line 0.6 MW Proposed power generation unit: • Supplier • System Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd Steam power plant (Carnot heat engines principles) 35% • Overall thermal efficiency Prepare a mini technical power evaluation report for the above project. Your report should include the following items and in the following order: a. Total power (W) and heat (Q) requirement.

C O O n t e n t Explore some of the projects described by William McDonough (Liuzhou City, Ford River Rouge Truck Plant green roof, Gap San Bruno office, etc). • What became of them? Consider the gap between ambition and reality when it comes to sustainability and sustainable energy generation. Discuss how this gap relates to the perspectives given in the other TED talks as ● well. Do you agree with the presenters' perspectives on the future? • What sustainability factors are they considering (or not) in their assessment of the future?
An iron grade has a melting point of 2200°F. Its specific heat = 0.11 Btu/lbm°F, and its heat of fusion = 56.2 Btu/lbm. A 150-lbm block of this cast iron is to be melted. Determine how much heat is required to raise its temperature from 70°F to its melting point and transform it from the solid to liquid phase. Do not use a comma in your answer. Recall: Required heat H = mC(Tm – Ta) + mHf
7. Bituminous coal has a heat of combustion* of 31.4 MJ/kg. In the United States, the average coal-burning utility produces an average of 2.2 kWh of electrical energy per kilogram of bituminous coal burned. What is the average overall efficiency of this production of electricity?
Hydro Tasmania has initiated the Battery of the Nation (BotN) strategic initiative to investigate and map out future development opportunities for the State of Tasmania to make a bigger contribution to a future National Electricity Market (NEM). The Tarraleah scheme redevelopment pre-feasibility study was undertaken through this initiative, with funding support from ARENA under the Advancing Renewables Program. For this assignment problem you will be using your knowledge of hydro power to: (1) estimate extended specifications for a new power station on the left bank of the Nive River opposite the existing power station; and (2) to reverse engineer specifications for the Pelton turbines currently installed at the Tarraleah power station. The pre-feasibility design team established basic parameters of a new power station to comprise two Francis turbines with a design flow of 20 m³/s (total 40 m³/s), a net head of 305 m and an installed capacity of ~57 MW (total 113 MW). The Tarraleah…

Convert the total kilowatts per year for all appliances into equivalent amounts (pounds) of oil burned to generate this energy. (It takes about 5.4 pounds of fuel oil to generate one kilowatt of energy. So, pounds of fuel oil per year = kilowatts per year * 5.4) __________________ Pounds fuel oil per year
Shipra Manufacturing Company is thinking about development of a strong charge producing measure by adding one-ton limit during heaters. Each clump (one ton) of charge should go through 30 minutes of heater time, including stack and dump tasks. In any case, the heater potential use factor is just 80% because of stream limitations in different pieces of the framework. Required yield for the new design is to be 16 tons for each shift (8 hours). Plant (framework) proficiency is assessed at 50% of limit. (a) Determine the quantity of heaters required. (b) Estimate the percent of time the heaters will be inactive.
