Water flows past a flat plate that is oriented parallel to the flow with an upstream velocity of 0.5 m/s. determine the approximate location downstream from the leading edge where the boundary layer becomes turbulent. what is the boundary layer thickness at this location?

Asimple rankine cycle uses water as the working fluid. the water enters the turbine at 10 mpa and 480c while the condenser operates at 6 kpa. if the turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 80 percent while the pump has an isentropic efficiency of 70 percent determine the thermal efficiency

Tech a says never use a water hose to clean up dust after a repair. tech b says never use a floor scrubber to clean up dust after repairs. who is correct?

Precipitation hardening can be achieved in many light alloys by a three-step heat treatment. what is carried out and what is the purpose at each step? why is such a treatment necessary based on the nucleation and growth theory of phase transformation. compare this treatment with tempering martensite for carbon steels (similarities and differences).
