Explanation Given information: A rectangular bar made up of aluminum alloy 2014-T6. The width of cross-sectional area of the bar, b = 4 in . The depth of cross-sectional area of the bar, d = 6 in . The bottom end of the bar is fixed and top end is pinned. The length of the bar, L = 10 ft . Consider the maximum allowable load acting on the bar as P. Show the expression of aluminum bar (2014-T6 alloy) of Sec 13.6 as follows: σ allow = [ 54 , 000 ( K L r ) 2 ] ksi, K L r > 55 Here, σ allow is the allowable stress and ( K L r ) is the slenderness ratio. Show the expression for Equation 13-30 as follows: σ max = P A + M c I Here, σ max is the maximum compressive stress, P is the load, A is the cross-section area, M is the moment, c is the distance between the centroid of member and outer fiber, and I is the moment of inertia. Calculation: Calculate the cross-sectional area ( A ) of the rectangular bar using the relation: A = b d (1) Substitute 4 in . for b and 6 in . for d in Equation (1): A = 4 × 6 = 24 in . 2 Calculate the moment of inertia about x- axis using the relation: I x = b d 3 12 (2) Substitute 4 in . for b and 6 in . for d in Equation (2): I x = 4 × 6 3 12 = 72 in . 4 Calculate the moment of inertia about y- axis using the relation: I y = d b 3 12 (3) Substitute 4 in . for b and 6 in . for d in Equation (3): I y = 6 × 4 3 12 = 32 in . 4 Calculate the least radius of gyration ( r y ) using relation: r y = I y A (4) Substitute 32 in . 4 for I y and 24 in . 2 for A in Equation (4): r y = 32 24 = 1.155 in . Calculate the slenderness ratio of bar about y-y axis using the relation: Slenderness ratio = ( K L r ) y (5) The bar is fixed at one end and pinned at another end. Thus, the value of effective length factor, K = 0.7 . Substitute 0.7 for K , 10 ft for L and 1.155 in . for r in Equation (5). Slenderness ratio = 0

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial …

The initial cost of a proposed heat recovery system is $375,000. The annual operation andmaintenance costs are projected to be $12,000. The salvage value of the system at the end of itsuseful life (projected to be 30 years) is $60,000. The annual savings in fuel costs resulting fromthis system are estimated to be $55,000 per year.a. Assuming annual compounding, determine the rate of return for this heat recovery system.b. If management has set the MARR to be 15% for a heat recovery system like this, what is themaximum initial cost that can be spent on the system (assuming that all other costs and incomesare the same)?

The initial cost of a machine for a production facility is $225,000. The machine is expected tolast for 10 years with no salvage value. The company’s tax rate is 49% and SLD is used todepreciate the machine. For this type of depreciation, the tax life of the machine is considered 8years and its salvage value is $5,000. The after-tax rate of return is 14.3%. Determine the uniformannual before-tax cash flow.

Three alternatives are being considered for an air cleaning system. All three systems have a lifeof 10 years with no salvage value. System A has an initial cost of $29,000. During the first fiveyears of operation, the annual costs to operate system A are $5,000. During the second five years,the annual cost of system A increases to $16,000. System B has an initial cost of $43,000. Theannual cost to operate system B is $4,000, however, after the first year, this cost increases by$1,600 per year. System C has an initial cost of $58,000 with an annual cost of $2,400. System Crequires two upgrades: one during year 4 which costs $6,000, and the other during year 8 whichcosts $3,000. The MARR for this project is 17%. Determine which air cleaning system should beinstalled based on an economic analysis.
