A compression spring is needed to fit over a 0.5-in diameter rod. To allow for some clearance, the inside diameter of the spring is to be 0.6 in. To ensure a reasonable coil, use a spring index of 10. The spring is to be used in a machine by compressing it from a free length of 5 in through a stroke of 3 in to its solid length. The spring should have squared and ground ends, unpeened, and is to be made from cold-drawn wire. (a) Determine a suitable wire diameter. (b) Determine a suitable total number of coils. (c) Determine the spring constant. (d) Determine the static factor of safety when compressed to solid length. (e) Determine the fatigue factor of safety when repeatedly cycled from free length to solid length. Use the Gerber-Zimmerli fatigue-failure criterion.

To design a steam turbine to produce 12,000 hp power. a engineer comsiders using a steady state stean low st 1160fr and engineer considers using a steady state steam flow at 1160°r and 450 psia to drive this steam turbine. the exhaust of the steam is cooled by the lake (vacuum). heat losing to the surroundings is measured at a rate of 555.55 btu/s. (a) sketch the system with the given conditions. (b) neglecting kinetic and potential energy changes from inlet to exit, determine the volumetric flow rate of the steam at the inlet, (ft'/hr). must clearly show unit conversions at crtical terms.

At steady state, air enters an insulated duct of varying cross-sectional area (similar to a nozzle or diffuser) at 200 kpa, 52°c with a mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa, the velocity is 255 m/s, and the cross-sectional area is 2 x 10-3 m^2. assuming an ideal gas model, determine: a)-find the specific volume of the air at the exit, in m3/kg. b)- the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. c)-the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. d)-the inlet cross-sectional area, in m^2.
