Write the combustion equation for the complete combustion of methane in a furnace chamber with 200% theoretical air and 20% percent excess air. Take into account that some of the oxygen is lost to the surface wall material of the furnace. Find the actual air-fuel ratio, the theoretical air-fuel ratio, and the percent excess air.

Air in the wind tunnel be pressurized to scale : A model of an airplane is to be tested at 20°C in a wind tunnel. The model is built to 1/12th scale. In order to match both the Mach number and the Reynolds number of the plane, the wind tunnel is pressurized. To what pressure (in atm) should the air..

Assume a labor rate and burden rate : Assume a labor rate of $50.00/hr and a burden rate of $25/hr. Assume a surface speed of 2000 ft/min. The number of teeth on the cutter is 4. The feed is 0.005 in/tooth. The depth of cut is 0.020”. The width of cut is equal to the diameter of the t..

Estimate the mass flow rate of the water exiting the faucet : A water tower sits atop a residential building as shown in the figure below. A 0.3m X 0.3m patch was used to repair damage from a recent storm. Water is supplied to the building via a 0.2m diameter main that connects to a faucet in the building's cou..

Determine the mass flow rate of combustion gases : Water enters the steam generator of the power plant shown in the figure at 7MPa, 50 degrees C, and exits at 7MPa, 600 degrees C. The steam is then fed into a well-insulated turbine, developing a power output of 31.6 MW before exiting the turbine as a..

Determine amount of heat transfer-mass of vapor that escapes : The rigid tank in the figure has a volume of 60 liters and initially contains a two-phase liquid vapor mixture of H2O at a pressure of 15 bars and a quality of 20%. As the tank contents are heated, a pressure-regulating valve keeps the pressure const..

Pump steadily draws water at a mass flow rate : A pump steadily draws water at a mass flow rate at 20 lbm/s through a piping arrangement. At the pipe inlet, the pressure is 14.7 lbf/in^2, the temperature is 68 F, and the velocity is 10 ft/s. At the pipe exit, the pressure is 20 lbf/in^2, the tempe..

Use tolerance limit calculation as basis for your judgment : A random sample of 12 shearing pins is taken in a study of the Rockwell hardness of the pin head. Measurements on the Rockwell hardness are made for each of the 12, yielding an average value of 48.50 with a sample standard deviation of 1.5.

Air is compressed in a reversible steady-flow system : Air is compressed in a reversible steady-flow system from 15 psia and 100?F to an exit pressure of 100 psia. The compression process is polytropic, with a polytropic exponent of n = 1.250 the air may be assigned to behave as an ideal gas with constan..
