What is the purpose of the cooling tower in a water-cooled system?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The use of cooling tower in a water-cooled system.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
A cooling tower in water cooled system is used to reject thewaste heat into the atmosphere with the help of cooled air.
Explanation of Solution
A water-cooled system is used to cool the water directly by the evaporator coil.
Water cooling system consist of water pump, fan, radiator cap, water jacket, thermostat valve and temperature gauge.
Cooling tower uses the evaporation of water to remove heat and to cool the working fluid.
A cooling tower in water cooled system is used to reject the waste heat into the atmosphere with the help of cooled air. This is the evaporative type heat rejection system.
The function of cooling tower is like a heat exchanger which exchange the heat between hot water and cooled air. The heat from water transferred to air and it rises the air temperature then dischargeto atmosphere.

Drawing scale (1:1). Either a precise hand drawing or CAD drawing is acceptable. Draw all the trajectories of the involute lines and the circles. Specification: 18tooth pinion and 30tooth gear.

There is no friction at the bearings except for the gear tooth forces. The material of the milled gears is steel having a Brinell hardness of 170. The input shaft speed (n2) is 800 rpm. The face width and the contact angle for all gears are 1 in and 20° respectively. In this gear set, the endurance limit (Se) is 15 kpsi and nd (design factor) is 2.

The rotating steel shaft is simply supported by bearings at points of B and C, and is driven by a spur gear at D, which has a 6-in pitch diameter. The force F from the drive gear acts at a pressure angle of 20°. The shaft transmits a torque to point A of TA =3000 lbĘ in. The shaft is machined from steel with Sy=60kpsi and Sut=80 kpsi.

(Hint: To find F, the torque Tд is generated by the tangential force of F (i.e. Ftangential-Fcos20°) When n=2.5, K=1.8, and K₁ =1.3, determine the diameter of the shaft based on (2) static analysis using DE theory (note that fatigue stress concentration factors need to be used for this question because the loading condition is fatigue) and (3) a fatigue analysis using modified Goodman.
