Consider two closely coiled helical springs : Consider two closely coiled helical springs, one made of steel, the other of copper, each 0.01m in wire diameter, one fitting with in the other. Each has an identical number of coils, n=20, and ends constrained to deflect the same amount.

Find the plates heat loss due to evaporation : Air with free-stream velocity of 2m/s passes over a flat plate of length 5m and width 1m. This time, the temperature of the convecting air is Tinfinity = 350K and its relative humidity is 15%. The flat plate is at Ts = 300K and its surface is wetted,..

Dry air passes over a flat plate : Dry air passes over a flat plate, at the surface of which the water vapor concentration is 0.01 kmol/m3. The plate’s length is 5m (in the direction of airflow) and its width is 1m, and the free-stream velocity of the air is 2 m/s. If both the convect..

Derive equation for pressure to push pig through pipe line : Derive equation for pressure to push pig through pipe line. A 20" diameter pipe is 7243 meters long and is being cleaned by a pig apparatus. Derive an equation for the required pressure given by a compressor to push a pig through a pipe while it push..

Axial strain gauges were installed on outer surface : A cylindrical Steel compression specimen of 150 mm long, 75.60 mm outside diameter and 69.60 mm inside diameter is used to determine the stress distribution in a compression member. An axial force P = 100 kN is applied at different locations (A, B, o..

Design a journal bearing for a centrifugal pump running : Design a journal bearing for a centrifugal pump running at 1440 r.p.m. The diameter of the journal is 100 mm and load on each bearing is 20 KN. The factor ZN/p may be taken as 28 for centrifugal pump bearings. The bearing is running at 70 degrees Cel..

Calculate the total heat lost by the pipe per unit length : A horizontal steel pipe having a diameter of 5 cm is maintained at a temperature of 50oC in a large room where the air (h = 6.5 W/m2.oC) and wall temperature are at 20oC. The surface emissivity of the steel may be taken as 0.8. Calculate the total he..

What is the temperature on the heated surface of the wall : A CO2 laser provides a constant surface heat flux, qs|| =200W/m2 to the surface of a 1m-thick plywood wall, initially at 300K - the other wall surface is adiabatic. What is the temperature on the heated surface of the wall after 100s? Check the Fouri..
