A part-time graduate student in engineering is enrolled in a four-unit mathematics course and a three-unit design course. Since the student has to work for 20 hours a week at a local software company, he can spend a maximum of 40 hours a week to study outside the class. It is known from students who took the courses previously that the numerical grade (g) in each course is related to the study time spent outside the class as gm = tm/6 and gd = td/5, where g indicates the numerical grade (g = 4 for A, 3 for B, 2 for C, 1 for D, and 0 for F), t represents the time spent in hours per week to study outside the class, and the subscripts m and d denote the courses, mathematics and design, respectively. The student enjoys design more than mathematics and hence would like to spend at least 75 minutes to study for design for every 60 minutes he spends to study mathematics. Also, as far as possible, the student does not want to spend more time on any course beyond the time required to earn a grade of A. The student wishes to maximize his grade point P, given by P = 4gm + 3gd , by suitably distributing his study time. Formulate the problem as an LP problem.

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?
