Chapter 8, Problem 8.91P

To slow down large prime movers like locomotives, a process termed dynamic electric braking is used to switch the traction motor to a generator mode in which mechanical power from the drive wheels is absorbed and used to generate electrical current. As shown in the schematic, the electric power is passed through a resistor grid (a), which consists of an array of metallic blades electrically connected in series (b). The blade material is a high-temperature, high electrical resistivity alloy, and the electrical power is dissipaled as heat by internal volumetric generation. To cool the blades, a motor-fan moves high-velocity air through the grid.

Chapter 8, Problem 8.91P, To slow down large prime movers like locomotives, a process termed dynamic electric braking is used

(a) Treating the space between the blades as a rectangular channel of 22 0 mm × 4 mm cross section and 7 0 mm length. estimate the heat removal rate per blade if the airstream has an inlet temperature and velocity of 25 ° C and 5 0  m / s . respectively. while the blade has an operating temperature of 6 00 ° C .

(b) On a locomotive pulling a 10-car train, there may be 2000 of these blades. Based on your result from part (a), how long will it take to slow a train whose total mass is 1 0 6 kg from a speed of 12 0  km / h to 5 0  km / h using dynamic electric braking?

A transmission shaft is supported on two bearings which are 1m apart. Power is supplied to the shaft by means of a flexible coupling, which is located to the left of left hand bearing. Power is transmitted from the shaft by means of a belt pulley, 250 mm diameter, which is located at a distance of 300 mm from the left hand bearing. The mass of the pulley is 20 kg and the ratio of belt tension on tight and slack sides is 2:1. The belt tensions act vertically downward. The shaft is made of steel with yield stress 300N/mm2 and the factor of safety is 3. Determine the shaft diameter, if it transmits 10 kW power at 360 rpm from the coupling to the pulley.
تسجيل Problem 1 Hayder The resistance of a 5 m length of wire is 600 2 Determine (a) the resistance of an 8 m length of the same wire, and (b) the length of the same wire when the resistance is 420 Q احمد حسن. . . (a) Resistance, R, is directly proportional to length, I, i.e. Rol. Hence, 600 2x5m or 600=(k)(5), where k is the coefficient of proportionality. Hence, 600 k= = 120 When the length / is 8m, then resistance R=kl=(120)(8) =9602 ۷۰ مشارگا آخر (b) When the resistance is 4202, 420= kl, from which, 420 length /= 420 = 3.5 m 120 Haidrer Al Mukhtar 23
Magnetic cooling can attain a temperature of roughly 0.05 K. In this technique, a high magnetic field is applied to a paramagnetic salt, which is kept at 5 K by transferring energy to a boiling liquid helium at low pressure. The salt is then thermally insulated from the helium, the magnetic field is removed, and the temperature of the salt decreases. Assume that a Carnot cycle heat pump removes 3 mJ from helium at an average temperature of 0.5 K. Determine the work input to the heat pump and the COP with an ambient temperature of 300 K.
