Air exits a compressor operating at steady-state, steady-flow conditions at 150 oC, 825 kPa, with a velocity of 10 m/s through a circular pipe of 5.0 cm diameter.

a. Determine the outlet volumetric flow rate and the mass flow rate of the air.
b. If the air enters the compressor through an inlet at 20.0 oC and 100 kPa and a velocity of 1.0 m/s, determine the volumetric flow rate of the air entering the compressor and the required cross-sectional area of the inlet.
c. Using your equations, plot the inlet volumetric flow rate and the inlet cross-sectional area as the inlet air velocity varies between 0.25 m/s and 10.0 m/s.

a) Qe = 0.01963 m^3 / s , mass flow rate m^ = 0.1334 kg/s

b) Inlet cross sectional area = Ai = 0.11217 m^2 , Qi = 0.11217 m^3 / s    

Explanation:

Given:-

- The compressor exit conditions are given as follows:

                  Pressure ( Pe ) = 825 KPa

                  Temperature ( Te ) = 150°C

                  Velocity ( Ve ) = 10 m/s

                  Diameter ( de ) = 5.0 cm

Solution:-

- Define inlet parameters:

                  Pressure = Pi = 100 KPa

                  Temperature = Ti = 20.0

                  Velocity = Vi = 1.0 m/s

                  Area = Ai

- From definition the volumetric flow rate at outlet ( Qe ) is determined by the following equation:

                   Qe = Ae*Ve

Where,

           Ae: The exit cross sectional area

                   Ae = π*de^2 / 4

Therefore,

                  Qe = Ve*π*de^2 / 4

                  Qe = 10*π*0.05^2 / 4

                  Qe = 0.01963 m^3 / s

- To determine the mass flow rate ( m^ ) through the compressor we need to determine the density of air at exit using exit conditions.

- We will assume air to be an ideal gas. Thus using the ideal gas state equation we have:

                   Pe / ρe = R*Te  

Where,

           Te: The absolute temperature at exit

           ρe: The density of air at exit

           R: the specific gas constant for air = 0.287 KJ /kg.K

                ρe = Pe / (R*Te)

                ρe = 825 / (0.287*( 273 + 150 ) )

                ρe = 6.79566 kg/m^3

- The mass flow rate ( m^ ) is given:

               m^ = ρe*Qe

                     = ( 6.79566 )*( 0.01963 )

                     = 0.1334 kg/s

- We will use the "continuity equation " for steady state flow inside the compressor i.e mass flow rate remains constant:

              m^ = ρe*Ae*Ve = ρi*Ai*Vi

- Density of air at inlet using inlet conditions. Again, using the ideal gas state equation:

               Pi / ρi = R*Ti  

Where,

           Ti: The absolute temperature at inlet

           ρi: The density of air at inlet

           R: the specific gas constant for air = 0.287 KJ /kg.K

                ρi = Pi / (R*Ti)

                ρi = 100 / (0.287*( 273 + 20 ) )

                ρi = 1.18918 kg/m^3

Using continuity expression:

               Ai = m^ / ρi*Vi

               Ai = 0.1334 / 1.18918*1

               Ai = 0.11217 m^2          

- From definition the volumetric flow rate at inlet ( Qi ) is determined by the following equation:

                   Qi = Ai*Vi

Where,

           Ai: The inlet cross sectional area

                  Qi = 0.11217*1

                  Qi = 0.11217 m^3 / s    

- The equations that will help us with required plots are:

Inlet cross section area ( Ai )

                Ai = m^ / ρi*Vi  

                Ai = 0.1334 / 1.18918*Vi

                Ai ( V ) = 0.11217 / Vi   Eq 1

Inlet flow rate ( Qi ):

                Qi = 0.11217 m^3 / s ... constant  Eq 2

d. attempt to find the owner, then leave your information if you cannot find them.

explanation:

d. represents both (b) and (c).

more logical as well.

b and c are to complicated.

glad i could , give me a follow, so if you need with any other question, im here.

answer:

explanation:

assault rifle is a rapid-fire, magazine-fed rifle designed for military use. it is a shoulder-fired weapon that allows the shooter to select between semi-automatic (requiring you pull the trigger for each shot), fully automatic (hold the trigger and the gun continuously fires) or three-shot-burst modes.
