Air with a temperature of 128 °C, a density of 4.89 kg/m3 and a velocity of 121 m/s enters a nozzle with an inlet to outlet area ratio of 2:1 and exits with a density of 2.36 kg/m3. Determine the temperature at the outlet (in K).
Hot carbon dioxide exhaust gas at 1 atm is being cooled by flat plates. The gas at 220°C flows in parallel over the upper and lower surfaces of a 2.8-m-long flat plate at a velocity of 1.5 m/s and the flat plate surface temperature is maintained at 80°C. The properties of CO2 at Tf = (220°C + 80°C)/2 = 150°C are k = 0.02652 W/m∙K, ν = 1.627 × 10−5 m2/s, and Pr = 0.7445.Determine the total heat flux transfer to the plate. (Round the final answer to the nearest whole number.)

A classroom that normally contains 40 people is tobe air-conditioned with window air-conditioning units of 5-kW cooling capacity. A person at rest may be assumed todissipate heat at a rate of about 360 kJ/h. There are 10 lightbulbs in the room, each with a rating of 100 W. The rate ofheat transfer to the classroom through the walls and the windows is estimated to be 15,000 kJ/h. If the room air is to bemaintained at a constant temperature of 21°C, determine thenumber of window air-conditioning units required c. A vertical piston–cylinder device contains water andis being heated on top of a range. During the process, 65 Btu of heat is transferred to the water, and heat losses from theside walls amount to 8 Btu. The piston rises as a result ofevaporation, and 5 Btu of work is done by the vapor.…
Warm air is contained in a piston-cylinder assembly oriented horizontally. The aircools slowly from an initial volume of 0.003 m 3 to a final volume of 0.002 m 3 . Duringthe process, the spring exerts a force that varies linearly from an initial value of 900 Nto a final value of zero. The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa, and the area of thepiston face is 0.018 m 2 .Friction between the pistonand the cylinder wall can beneglected. For the air in thepiston-cylinder assembly,determine the initial and finalpressures, each in kPa andatm.
Discuss the application of the first law of thermodynamics to a mountaineer who eats food, gets warm and perspires a lot during a climb, and does a lot of mechanical work in raising herself to the summit. The mountaineer also gets warm during the descent. Is the source of this energy the same as the source during the ascent?
