Oxygen at 300 kpa and 400 k is in a closed system with an initial volume of 0.1 m3. is now compressed in a polytropic process, with exponent of n 1.2, to a temperature of 500 k. calculate: a) the boundary work done during the compression, in kj b) the heat transfer during the compression, in kj

The mass flow rate of the fluid remains constant in all steady flow process. a)- true b)- false

Afour cylinder four-stroke in-line engine has a stroke of 160mm, connecting rod length of 150mm, a reciprocating mass of 3kg and its firing order is 1-3-4-2. the spacing between cylinders is 100mm. i. show that the engine is in balance with regard to the primary inertia forces and primary 3. a and secondary inertia couples. li determine the out of balance secondary inertia force ii. propose ways of balancing this out of balance force and discuss the challenges that will arise

Steam enters a converging nozzle at 3.0 mpa and 500°c with a at 1.8 mpa. for a nozzle exit area of 32 cm2, determine the exit velocity, mass flow rate, and exit mach number if the nozzle: negligible velocity, and it exits (a) is isentropic (b) has an efficiency of 94 percent
