THERMODYNAMICS QUESTION PAPER

Que – 1(a): DEFINE THE FOLLOWING
               QUASI-STATIC PROCESS, THERMODYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM, HEAT & WORK, INTENSIVE    AND EXTENSIVE PROPERTY

Que – 1(b): IN A PISTON CYLINDER ARRANGEMENT, THE NON FLOW REVERSIBLE PROCESS IS GIVEN BY V = 200/PM3, WHERE P IS IN BAR, FIND THE WORK DONE WHEN THE PRESSURE INCREASES FROM 1 BAR TO 10 BAR. INDICATE THAT THE PROCESS IF COMPRESSION OR EXPANSION.

QUE – 2(a): PROVE THAT THE MOLE FRACTION OF EACH CONSTITUENTS IN A MIXTURE OF PERFECT GASES IS THE SAME AS ITS VOLUME FRACTION AND ALSO, THE RATIO OF ITS PARTIAL PRESSURE TO THE TOTAL PRESSURE.

 QUE – 2(b): A MIXTURE OF GASES HAVING 2 KG HE AND 5 KG N2 AT 300 C AND 1 BAR IS COMPRESSED IN A REVERSIBLE ADIABATIC PROCESS TO 6 BAR. FIND:
                                    i.            FINAL PRESSURE OF THE CONSTITUENTS
                                  ii.            THE FINAL TEMPERATURE
                                iii.            CHANGE IN INTERNAL ENERGY OF THE MIXTURE DURING PROCESS
TAKE (CS)N2  = 0.744        ,            (CV)HE  = 3.157
           (CP)N2 = 1.049        ,             (CP) HE = 5.296KJ/KG0K

QUE – 3: THE MASS FLOW RATE OF AIR THROUGH A RECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR IS 0.4 KG/SEC.THE AIR ENTERS AT 6 M/SEC. WITH A PRESSURE OF 1 BAR AND SPECIFIC VOLUME OF 0.85 M3 KG AND LEAVES AT 4.5 M/SEC WITH A PRESSURE OF 6.9 BAR AND SPECIFIC VOLUME OF 0.16 M3/KG. THE EXTERNAL ENERGY OF THE AIR LEAVING THE COMPRESSOR IS 88 KJ/KG GREATER THAN THAT OF AIR ENTERING COOLING WATER OF THE CYLINDER JACKET ABSORBS HEAT AT A RATE OF 59 KW. DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIRED TO DRIVE THE COMPRESSOR AND INLET AND OUTLET PIPE-CROSS-SECTION AREAS.

QUE – 4(a): WHAT ARE THE LIMITATION OF FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS? STATE THE SECOND LAW AS STATED BY KELVIN – PLANK AND CLAUSIUS ALSO PROVE THEIR EQUIVALENCE?

QUE – 4(b): AN ENGINEER CLAIMS HIS ENGINE TO DEVELOP 3.675 KW ON TESTING THE ENGINE CONSUMES 0.44 KG OF FUEL PER HR HAVING A CALORIFIC VALUE OF 41800 KJ/KG. THE MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE RECORDED IN THE CYCLE IS 14000C AND MAXIMUM IS 3500C. FIND WHETHER THE ENGINE IS JUSTIFY IN HIS CLAIM. IF HOWEVER THE MAXIMUM & MINIMUM TEMP. ARE MAINTAINS AT 2000C AND 2500C, WILL THE PERFORMANCE BE POSSIBLE AN THE SAME ENGINE

QUE – 5(a): STATE AND PROVE THE CLAUSIUS INEQUALITY
§dQ/T < 0 , FOR IRREVERSIBLE PROCESS
§ Dq/T = 0 , FOR A REVERSIBLE PROCESS

QUE – 5(b): 2 KG OF WATER AT 940C IS MIXED WITH 3 KG OF WATER AT 100C IN AN ISOLATED SYSTEM. CALCULATE THE CHAGE IN ENTROPY DUE TO MIXING PROCESS?

QUE – 6(a): DERIVE AN EXPRESSION FOR AVAILABILITY OF A STEADY FLOW SYSTEM?

QUE – 6(b): CALCULATE THE UNAVAILABLE EVERY IN 60 KG OF WATER AT 600C WITH RESPECT TO THE SURROUNDINGS AT 60C, THE PRESSURE OF WATER BEING I ATMOSPERE.

QUE – 7(a): EXPLAIN THE WORKING OF A THROTTLING AND SEPERATING CALORIMETER FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF DRYNESS FRACTION OF STEAM. WITH THE HELP OF NEAT SKETCH.

QUE – 7(b): CALCULATE THE INTERNAL ENERGY PER KG OF SUPERHEATED STEAM AT A PRESSURE OF 10 BAR AND A TEMPERATURE OF 3000C. ALSO FIND THE CHANGE OF INTERNAL ENERGY IF THIS STEAM IS EXPANDED TO 1.4 BAR AND DRYNESS FRACTION 0.8.

QUE – 8 : DERIVE THE FOLLOWING RELATIONS:
(a) Tds = CV dT + p T Dv/K
(b)TdS = CP Dt – VβTdP
(c) TdS = CVK/βV  dV

APRON MECHANISM IN LATHE

APRON MECHANISM IN LATHE Apron Mechanism: Apron is attached to the carriage and hangs over the front side of the lathe bed. It is useful in providing power and hand feed to both carriage and cross-slide. It is also used to provide power feed to the carriage during thread cutting through two half nuts. The construction of apron is shown in Fig. Fig - Apron Mechanism Construction Power is transmitted from the spindle to the lead screw and feed rod through the spindle gear and tumbler gear arrangement. A worm is mounted on the feed rod by a sliding key. The worm meshes with a worm gear on whose axis another gear G1 is attached. Gear G1 is attached to a small gear G2 by a bracket as shown in the diagram. Gear G4 is positioned to be in mesh with the rack gear always. Another gear G3 is mounted on the same axis of gear G4. The carriage hand wheel meant for longitudinal feed is attached to the gear G5 on the same axis. The gears G3 and G5 are always in mesh. The gear G

Boiler Mountings - Dead Weight Safety Valve

DEAD WEIGHT SAFETY VALVE Function:- A valve is placed upon a valve seat that is fixed upon a long vertical pipe having a flange at the bottom for fixing at the top of the boiler. Suspended at the top of the valve is the weight carrier that carries cast iron rings. The total weight must be sufficient to keep the valve on its seat against the normal working pressure. When the steam pressure exceeds the normal limit, it lifts the valve with its weight & the excess steam escape through the pipe to the outside. This valve is used only with stationary type of boilers. It is the most elementary type of safety valve. The objection to dead weight safety valve is the heavy weight that has to be carried.
