A long, slender structural steel [E = 29,000 ksi] HSS8 x 4 x 1/4 shape (see Appendix B for its cross-sectional properties) is used as a L = 32.00-ft-long column. The column is supported in the x direction at base A and pinned at ends A and C against translation in the y and z directions. Lateral support is provided to the column so that deflection in the x–z plane is restrained at mid-height B; however, the column is free to deflect in the x–y plane at B. Determine the maximum compressive load that the column can support if a factor of safety of 2.37 is required. In your analysis, consider the possibility that buckling could occur about either the strong axis (i. e., the z axis) or the weak axis (i. e., the y axis) of the steel column.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
