Solve the following problem using Geometric Programming In a three-stage compression system, air enters the first stage at a pressure of 100 kPa and a temperature of 20 °C. The exit pressure from the third stage is 6400 kPa. Between stages the air is passed through an intercooler that brings the temperature back to 20 °C. The expression for the work of compression per unit mass in an ideal process is k KERT, [1-(2₂) (R-1)/ -RT₁ k-1 where subscript 1 refers to the entering conditions and subscript 2 to the leaving conditions. a) With the intermediate pressures chosen so that the total work of compression is a minimum, what is the minimum work required to compress 1 kg of air, assuming that the compressions are reversible and adiabatic? b) What are the intermediate pressures that result in this minimum work of compression? c) Discuss the relative energy consumption by each compressor and the progression of the pressure through the three compressors.

In the two-pipe system, water flows continuously from the inner pipe and air from the outer pipe (steady-state). ˙The pressure change in both pipes is negligible. In addition, heat interaction with the environment, kinetic and potential energy changes are also neglected. In this system shown in Figure 1, the water flowing from the inlet number 1 is in the state of saturated vapor (gas). In this case, calculate the outlet temperature (T2) for the given system, using the ideal gas approximation for air. (Hint: it will be solved iteratively.)

There is a spring-mass system, driven by an external piston, which applies a force to it. Newtons that satisfies the following relation F = 6*cos (3*π*t), as can be seen in the figure, it is known that the spring constant has a value of k = 25 Nm, and the block has a mass of 4 kg, furthermore, dissipative frictional effects cause the relationship between velocity and force to satisfy the ratio F = bv, where b is the damping constant, and it is known that the numerical ratio of force is 10 times the value of speed. Determine: a) The natural frequency of the system. b) The driving frequency of the external force. c) The maximum value exerted by the external force. d) The damping constant. e) The amplitude of the forced oscillatory motion in steady state. f) If dissipative (damping) effects are neglected, what is the value of the amplitude.

A food product containing 85% moisture content is being frozen. Estimate the specific heat of the product at -4 ° C when 62% of the water is frozen. The specific heat of the dry product is 2.5 kJ / (kg ° C). it is assumed that the specific heat of water at -10 ° C is the same as the specific heat of water at 0 ° C, and the specific heat of ice follows the function Cp es = 0.0062 Tfrozen + 2.0649. Cp of frozen product = kJ / kg ° C.

A firearm can be modeled as a kind of heat engine, where the projectile acts as a piston that separates from the rest of the system during expansion. Consider a rifle with a 1.70 kg barrel made of iron [specific heat = 448 J/(kg °C)]. The rifle fires a 4.00 g bullet that exits the barrel with a speed of 350 m/s. When the propellant is ignited, 1.10% of the energy released goes into propelling the bullet (this is the thermal efficiency of the "engine"). The other 98.9% can be approximated as being entirely absorbed by the barrel, which increases in temperature uniformly for a short time before this energy is dissipated into the surroundings. What is this temperature increase (in °C)? (Round your answer to at least one decimal place.) °℃

Consider the mass-on-a-spring system as shown in the figure below. The spring has a spring constant of 1.86e+3 N/m, and the block has a mass of 1.39 kg. There is a constant force of kinetic friction between the mass and the floor of 4.71 N. Starting with the spring compressed by 0.117 m from its equilibrium position, how far will the block travel once it leaves the spring?

Give your answer as the distance from the equilibrium position to the final position of the block.) Hint: How much work must friction do in order to bring the mass to a stop?

You have a wind turbine with a maximum power rating of 5 MW available for use in a wind farm. This turbine can operate in winds ranging from a minimum speed of 2 m/s up to a maximum wind speed of 10 m/s (which is when the turbine produces its maximum power). You have two possible sites available: the first site has a steady wind that always blows at 6 m/s. At the second site, the wind blows at 1 m/s for 50% of the time, and at 10 m/s for the other 50% of the time. a. If maximizing the peak power production is the most important consideration, which site should you choose? What will be the maximum power for a single turbine? b. If maximizing the average power production is the most important consideration, which site should you choose? What would be this average power for a single turbine?
