1 - A square chip, with side ? = 5 mm, operates under isothermal conditions.The chip is positioned on a substrate so that its side and bottom surfaces are thermally insulated, while its top surface is exposed to theflow of a refrigerant at ?∞ = 15°C. From reliability considerations, the chip temperature cannot exceed ? = 85°C. The refrigerant being air, with a convection heat transfer coefficientcorresponding ℎ = 200 W/(m2K), what is the maximum allowable power for the chip? Since the coolant is a dielectric liquid for which ℎ = 3000 W/(m2K), what is the maximum allowed power?

Incremental fuel costs in dollars per megawatthour for a plant consisting of two units are given by:dC(P)/dP = 0.0080 P1 + 8.0dC(P)/dP = 0.0096 P2 + 6.4Assume that both units are operating at all times, that total load varies from 250 to 1250 MW, and that maximum and minimum loads on each unit are to be 625MW and 100MW respectively. Find the incremental fuel cost and the allocation of load between units for the minimum cost of various total loads.Write your answers in the given format below.
You own a factory that uses several conveyor belts and other motor-driven machineries. Upon measuring the factory's apparent power requirement and power factor, it turns out that it runs at 15 MVA at 0.7 lagging of; therefore, it is too inductive! To avoid electrical code violations, the factory must operate at a pf of at least 0.9 lagging. If the factory is connected to 34.5 kV AC at 60 Hz, what is the size of the compensating capacitor that must be installed to achieve the desired pf level? Express the answer in microfarads. The given voltage can be assumed to be at angle zero.
15.2 Estimate the total land requirements for wind farms generating an amount of electric energy equal to 2008 US annual consumption (4.4 × 10 12 kW e h) if individual units are rated at 2 MW e , have a rotor with a 100 m diameter, and are spaced 3 diameters side to side, 10 diameters front to rear in giant contiguous wind farms having an annual average capacity factor of 25%. Compare the required area to that of North and South Dakota (combined land area of 145,000 square miles), which have some of the best US wind resources. Discuss the factors that would favor or impede the practical implementation of a Grand Midwestern Wind Farm plan to provide the bulk of US electric energy by the year 2050.
