A project consists of replacing the track on an existing railroad line, involving 3000 feet of track. The old track can be removed at a rate of 70 feet per hour. The old railroad ties can be removed at a rate of 200 feet (measured along the track) per hour. The new ties can be installed at a rate of 25 feet per hour and the replacement track can be installed at a rate of 40 feet per hour. Show this operation on a linear schedule. Assume that the minimum float for an activity at any location is one day.

You suggest operaing the cycle utilizing two reversible tubines with saturated vapor exit streams. All conditions remain the same except that the feed to the first turbine is steam at 450 C..

Estimate the flow rate of water required to make the outflow : A mixing chamber has two steady streams and one steady stream. The properties of the first stream is superheated steam at T1 = 400oF, h1 = 1,239 Btu/lbm and flow rate m1 = 20 lbm/h. The second stream is compressed liquid at T2 = 70oF, h2 = 38 Btu/lbm..

Determine the volume flow rate of the steam at the nozzle : A steady-state, well-insulated turbine operates in two stages in series using steam. the first stage has an efficiency of 85% and the second stage 90%. Steam enters the first stage at 400 C and 4 MPa and exits at 1.5 MPa.
