A balloon filled with helium (of density ρHe = 0.164 kg/m3 ) has a cube shape and rises through the stratosphere. Air density is given by ρ(z) = ρa exp(− gz/ RT), where ρa = 1.225 kg/m3 is the density of air at the sea level, g = 9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration, R = 287.06 J/kg/K is the specific gas constant of air, and T is the air temperature, which is constant in the stratosphere and equal to 217 K (Note that this expression for the atmospheric density is strictly correct only in the isothermal region of the stratosphere. However, please use it for solution to this problem). This balloon is designed so that ρHe and its side length h = 30 cm remain constant for all z. The lower surface is located at z and the upper surface at z + h. Derive an expression for the buoyancy force on the balloon and compute the maximum altitude to which the balloon rises in a unit of m.
Using Newton's second law, the movement of a body in a viscous fluid can be modeled. For this case it will be a one-dimensional movement.
ec.1) F -FR = ma
F: Force applied to the body.
FR: Resistance that opposes the fluid to the movement.
m: body mass
a: body acceleration
For a sphere with initial radius R0 = 1 meter and density 8960 kg/m^3 to which a constant force of 3 Kilo Newtons is applied, it is requested:
Using Euler's method, find the velocity as a function of time for the first 5 seconds of movement, considering that v(0) = 10 m/s. Use a 1 second step.
For this case use:
ec.2) FR = 210Rv
R: Radius of the sphere.
v: velocity
Where, in addition, the sphere disintegrates as time passes in this fluid, so its radius is given by the following function:
ec.3) R = R0*e^(-t/250)
Air at atmospheric pressure enters a heating duct with dimensions of 3 x 6 in. The air enters the 16 ft long duct with a temperature of 32 F, and the duct surface is maintained at 150 F. If the air exit temperature is to be 68 F, what is the air flow, in lb/hr? (answer in whole number) For air, R = 53.342 ft-lbf/lbm-R, k = 0.173 Btu-in/ft2-hr-F, and cp = 0.24 Btu/lbm-
