Explanation Calculation: Divide the plane area as shown in Figure (1). Sketch the cross-section of plane area as shown in Figure (1). Refer to Figure (1). Calculate the radius ( r ) of the semi-circular segment. r 2 = 60 2 + 60 2 r 2 = 2 × 60 2 r = 60 2 mm Calculate the angle ( α ) . tan α = 60 60 α = 45 ° α = π 4 Consider the section (1) as triangle, section (2) as semicircle, and section (3) as triangle. For section (1). The base of the triangle is b = 120 mm and height is h = 90 mm . For section (2). The radius of the semicircle is r = 60 2 mm . For section (2). The base of the triangle is b = 120 mm and height is h = 60 mm . Calculate the location of the centroid for section (2) ( y ¯ ) using the relation. y ¯ = 2 r sin α 3 α Substitute 60 2 mm for r and π 4 for α . y ¯ = 2 × 60 2 sin π 4 3 × π 4 = 50.93 mm Calculate the area using the relation. For semicircular segment. A = π r 2 2 (1) For triangle. A = 1 2 b h (2) Due to the symmetry of the plane area about y axis, the centroid of the plane area about x axis is X ¯ = 0 . Therefore, the centroid of the plane area along x axis is X ¯ = 0 _ . Calculate the sum of the plane area using the relation. Reduce the area and centroid of the triangle in section (3) from the summation of area and centroid of the section (1) and (2). Sum = ( 1 ) + ( 2 ) − ( 3 )

The feed flow rate to an adiabatic continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) in which an exothermicreaction is occurring is increased from 1000 to 1400. kg/h, causing the outlet temperature to change as shown:a) Briefly explain on a physical basis why the temperature in this system oscillates after a step increasein the inlet flow rate. Be clear, complete, and concise. c) You know that this oscillating response cannot be that of two first order processes with real timeconstant acting in series. Assuming the reaction is first order and the CSTR operates with constant holdup,derive the block diagram with all transfer functions indicating how the temperature would respond to the feedflow rate step change (W’(s) as input and T’(s) as output). An intermediate variable in this block diagram willbe the concentration of A in the reactor, represented by CA’(s). d) A correct result for part c) will include a feedback loop in the block diagram, indicating the responsein T to a change in w is not…

Spur gears Note : Exam is open notes &tables / Answer all questions. Q.1. The press shown for Figure.1 has a rated load of 22 kN. The twin screws have double start Acme threads, a diameter of 50 mm, and a pitch of 6 mm. Coefficients of friction are 0.05 for the threads and 0.08 for the collar bearings. Collar diameters are 90 mm. The gears have an efficiency of 95 percent and a speed ratio of 60:1. A slip clutch, on the motor shaft, prevents overloading. The full-load motor speed is 1720 rev/min.
