In a Modified Rankine Cycle used in a power plant in Wichita, KS, a Shell and Heat Exchanger needs to be installed. Water from the turbine at 90 C is cooled to 80 C in a shell-tube HX using 150 kghan 25 ft in length and the total pressure drop cannot e/s of raw water from Power Plant Lake. The raw water temperature can increase by 2, 4, 6, or 10 C. Design a suitable HX for a 100 MW of heat load (If you chose a multi-module system design only one HX unit). The Heat exchanger tubes have to be shorter txceed 20 psi.

If the glider has a mass of 1000 kg, and assuming the load is given by F=mg = 9800 N, and if the Young’s modulus of steel is 200 GPa (200,000,000,000 Pa), and Poisson’s ratio i..

Determine the stress and slenderness ratio : A 10 inch long cantilevered beam has a 1” by 1” square cross section. The load at the end of the beam cycles from 0 lbs to 300 lbs. determine the stress. Determine the slenderness ratio and column constant of a 38” long steel column that has a 1.5 in..

Piston-cylinder assembly in an air atmosphere : A piston-cylinder assembly in an air atmosphere of p = 1 atm (= 1.013 bar) contains 1 kg of nitrogen. The initial volume of the nitrogen is 1 m^3, and its initial pressure is 1 atm. The side of the cylinder is heated such that the heat transfer to th..
