1. (15) A truck scale is made of a platform and four compression force sensors, one at each corner of the platform. The sensor itself is a short steel cylinder, 22 mm in diameter. A single stain gauge is pre-stressed to 3% strain and bonded on the outer surface of the cylinder. The strain gauges have a nominal resistance (before pre-stressing) of 340 Ohms and a gauge factor of 6.9. The steel used for the cylinders has a modulus of elasticity of 30 GPa. Calculate: a. The maximum truck weight that the scale can measure. b. The change in resistance of the sensors for maximum weight. c. The sensitivity of the scale assuming the response of the strain gauges is linear.

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?

Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0.14 mpa and -10°c at a rate of 0.05 ka/s and leaves at 0.8 mpa and 50°c. the refrigerant is cooied in the condenser to 0.72 mpa and 26'c. it is then throttled to 0.15 mpa. sketch the t-s diagram for the system and evaluate: 6) the rate of heat removai from the refrigerated space (kw), it) the power input to the compressor (kw), ii) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor (%), and iv) the cop of the refrigerator.
