In the thermos shown in Fig. P8.43, the innermost compartment is separated from the middle container by a vacuum. There is a final shell around the thermos. This final shell is separated from the middle layer by a thin layer of air. The outside of the final shell comes in contact with room air. Heat transfer from the inner compartment to the next layer

- I want to solve these questions in all its branches, especially for thermodynamic, and thanks for the helparrow_forwardA 5-feet diameter Chimney is designed to handle a flue gas produced in a steam power plant at a rate of 17 lb/s. The barometric pressure is 29.92-inch Hg. Outside air enters the combustion chamber at 90 F. The average temperature of the flue gas inside the Chimney is 572 F and its molecular weight is 30. Cv = 0.35, Rair = 53.342 ft-lb/lb-R. Calculate: 5. The total draft, feet of air. 6. The height of the Chimney, feetarrow_forwardA body is removed from a confined space where the temperature is 70°C and is taken outside, where the air temperature is 10°C. After one-half minute, the body's temperature is read as 50°C. How long will it take for the body's temperature to reach 15°C? What is the value of the proportionality constant?arrow_forward
- A control volume is a volume or structure in space, surrounded by a boundary, which accepts water and other inputs, operates on them internally and produces them as outputs. TRUE FALSEarrow_forwardThermodynamics: Please show me how to solve the given practice problems in step by step solution.arrow_forwardIn an undisturbed airstream inside a wind tunnel, the condition is at a standard atmosphere with a velocity of 400 ft/s. The tunnel then narrows down to the throat section. What is the velocity of throat section which has a pressure of 2000 lbs/ft^2? a. 450 ft/s b. 501 ft/s c. 388 ft/s d. 605 ft/s e. 510 ft/s f. 485 ft/s h. 458 ft/sarrow_forward
- An engineer has been given the following data on a conditioned room: Sensible heat gain 30 kW Latent heat gain 15 kW Supply air 18°C Outdoor air 35°C DB and 24°C WB Desired room condition 27°C DB and 50% RH For ventilation, 15% is outdoor air, the balance of air requirement being recirculated from room conditioned with some portion being by-passed around the cooling coil. There is no reheater, the desired room state is attained by the by-passing of air. It is found that the apparatus DP temperature of coil is 10°C. Find the: a. tons of refrigeration; and b. mass flow rate of the time by-passed air.arrow_forwardThermodynamics. Please make a complete step by step solution.arrow_forwardThermodynamics.

- The data listed below is from a passenger hot air balloon. The balloon is designed to lift 10-people (80 kg each person). The balloon consists of a basket, a burner- propane tank system. It will lift up when the cold air trapped inside warms up by the burner. Density of air inside the balloon is 99°C: 0.9486 kg/m³, density of air outside balloon is 20°C (ambient): 1.2041 kg/m³ Mass (kg) Balloon Basket Burner Propane tank 113.4 kg 63.5 kg 22.7 kg 183.7 kg Assume the balloon is a sphere shape, volume =(4/3)pi R3. a. Determine the minimum diameter of the balloon that would have a total lifting force to balance the weight of balloon, basket, burner, propane tank and 10 people? b. If the balloon is converted to survey the weather, it will be filled with hydrogen gas (H2). Assume the weight of the people (800kg) is now replaced by onboard equipment, what is minimum diameter needed to keep it afloat at 18km above the surface of the earth?arrow_forwardDuring a 60–minute trial of a single cylinder four-stroke oil engine, the following observations were made. Engine dimension = 0.3 m bore X 0.45 m stroke, Fuel consumption 11.4 kg, Calorific value of fuel = 40 MJ/kg, IMEP = 6 bar, Net load on brakes = 1652 N , Speed = 300 rpm, Brake drum diameter = 1.8 m, Brake rope diameter = 20 mm, Quantity of jacket cooling water = 600 kg, Temperature rise of cooling water = 55°C, Quantity of air as measured = 250 kg, Exhaust gas temperature = 420°C, Specific heat of exhaust gas = 1.0 kJ/kg K, Ambient temperature = 20°C. Draw up an energy balance sheet of the engine and calculate for: Qw = energy loss due to cooling water, in kJQe = energy loss due to exhaust gas, in kJQu = unaccounted energy loss due to convection, radiation, etc. , in kJarrow_forwardA spaceship has crashed into an ocean on an unknown planet with radius 6.42 * 10 ^ 6 * m and mass 5.82 * 10 ^ 24 The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 202.0 kPa and the ocean has density of 0.817 * 10^ 3 kg/m3 .
