Aheat treating process (process 1) can be added to a processing line for $30,000. the annual operating costs are $12,000 and its life is expected to be 8 years with a $10,000 salvage value at that time. an alternative process (process 2) can be installed for $21,000. its annual operating costs are $15,000 and its life is also expected to be 8 years with a $7,000 salvage value. in both cases, the annual increase in revenue due to the addition of the heat treating process is $20,000. the company's tax rate is 52% and the method of depreciation is syd. compute the rate of return of each heat treating process after depreciation and taxes. on the basis of this rate of return analysis, which alternative should be selected?

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
