Argon gas initially at 140 kPa, 10C is contained in a cylinder fitted with a piston. The initial volume of the gas is 0.2m^3. The gas is now compressed in a poly tropic process, PV^(1.4)=constant, to a final pressure of 700 kPa assuming ideal gas behaviour, calculate the heat transfer during the process, in kJ.

Considering the ammonia as a system : A certain balloon is constructed of a material such that the pressure inside is related to the volume according to the relation PV^(-2/3)=constant. The balloon contains 2kg of ammonia initially at 0C, 60% quality. The balloon is now heated until the ..

A cantilevered beam with a rectangular cross section : A cantilevered beam with a rectangular cross section is loaded by a force perpendicular to the beam center line at the free end. The cross section is 100mm high and 25mm wide. The vertical load at the beam end is 40,000N.

Temperature change of water as it flows through the duct : Water flows through a duct of varying area. The difference in stagnation pressures between two sections is 4.5 x 10^5 N/M^2. If the water remains at a constant temp, how much heat will be transferred in this length of duct? If the system is perfectly..

Opened and half of the mass of the gas is allowed to escape : A rigid tank contains 5.56 kg of an ideal gas at 3.6 ATM and 40 degrees Celsius. Now a valve is opened and half of the mass of the gas is allowed to escape. If the final pressure in the tank is 2.0 ATM, the final temperature of the tank is?

Find equation for the steady state temperature distribution : A very large vertical steel plate that is 1 cm thick is inductively heated with internal heat generation rate of 2x10^9 W/m3 . The plate is initially at 20°C, and the left and right surfaces are kept at 20Â°C throughout the heating process.

Temperature difference between the hot and cold streams : A vortex tube is used to separate an ideal gas at 10 bar and 375 K such that half the gas is collected in a cool stream at 1 bar and 255 K and the other half becomes a hot stream at 1 bar and 495 K. Assuming the process is adiabatic: is this process ..

Determine the appropriate line size : Linseed oil is to be pumped at a flow rate of 12gpm over a distance of 18m. The allowable pressure drop is 15 psi. Centrifugally spun cast iron is to be used as a pipe material. Determine the appropriate line size.

Difference between stagnation and static pressure : Pressure taps in a low speed wind tunnel reveal the difference between stagnation and static pressure to be .5 psi. Calculate the test section air velocity under the assumption that the air density remains constant at .0765 lbm/ft^3
