Chapter 18.5, Problem 18CC

A device constructed to throw various objects can impart up to 500 joules of kinetic energy to the object being thrown. For a given mass, there is a maximum velocity that the device can throw the object. This is represented in the following diagram, and it fits a power law model. Velocities above the line cannot be achieved by the device, velocities below the line can.

Chapter 18.5, Problem 18CC, A device constructed to throw various objects can impart up to 500 joules of kinetic energy to the

Write a MATLAB program that will accept a value of mass [kg] and desired velocity [m/s] from the user and classify them as “Possible” or “Not Possible.” Three points on the line are labeled on the diagram. You must use polyfit to determine the equation of the line, and then use these values to do the classification.

! Required information A one-shell-pass and eight-tube-passes heat exchanger is used to heat glycerin (cp=0.60 Btu/lbm.°F) from 80°F to 140°F by hot water (Cp = 1.0 Btu/lbm-°F) that enters the thin-walled 0.5-in-diameter tubes at 175°F and leaves at 120°F. The total length of the tubes in the heat exchanger is 400 ft. The convection heat transfer coefficient is 4 Btu/h-ft²°F on the glycerin (shell) side and 70 Btu/h-ft²°F on the water (tube) side. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger before any fouling occurs.

! Required information Air at 25°C (cp=1006 J/kg.K) is to be heated to 58°C by hot oil at 80°C (cp = 2150 J/kg.K) in a cross-flow heat exchanger with air mixed and oil unmixed. The product of heat transfer surface area and the overall heat transfer coefficient is 750 W/K and the mass flow rate of air is twice that of oil. NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Air Oil 80°C Determine the effectiveness of the heat exchanger.
In an industrial facility, a counter-flow double-pipe heat exchanger uses superheated steam at a temperature of 155°C to heat feed water at 30°C. The superheated steam experiences a temperature drop of 70°C as it exits the heat exchanger. The water to be heated flows through the heat exchanger tube of negligible thickness at a constant rate of 3.47 kg/s. The convective heat transfer coefficient on the superheated steam and water side is 850 W/m²K and 1250 W/m²K, respectively. To account for the fouling due to chemical impurities that might be present in the feed water, assume a fouling factor of 0.00015 m²-K/W for the water side. The specific heat of water is determined at an average temperature of (30 +70)°C/2 = 50°C and is taken to be J/kg.K. Cp= 4181 Water Steam What would be the required heat exchanger area in case of parallel-flow arrangement? The required heat exchanger area in case of parallel-flow arrangement is 1m².
