Explanation of Solution

Powder metallurgy (PM)

The process in which precision metal components are formed from metal power is known as powder metallurgy.

This PM is having an important role to form metal. The importance of PM is given below:

  • The metal parts can be made to net or near to net shape.
  • The porosity level can be controlled by PM.
  • To produce some certain metals, PM method is useful than other methods.
  • In PM method, the unusual forming of alloys is not so easy.

3-55 A multifluid container is connected to a U-tube, as shown in Fig. P3–55. For the given specific gravities and fluid column heights, determine the gage pressure at A. Also determine the height of a mercury column that would create the same pressure at A. Answers: 0.415 kPa, 0.311 cm
I need help answering parts a and b
Required information Water initially at 200 kPa and 300°C is contained in a piston-cylinder device fitted with stops. The water is allowed to cool at constant pressure until it exists as a saturated vapor and the piston rests on the stops. Then the water continues to cool until the pressure is 100 kPa. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Water 200 kPa 300°C On the T-V diagram, sketch, with respect to the saturation lines, the process curves passing through the initial, intermediate, and final states of the water. Label the T, P, and V values for end states on the process curves. Please upload your response/solution by using the controls provided below.
