In such an experiment for which steady state operation is maintaned over a 12 hour period, the input electrical energy is 125,000 J. Determine the fridges coefficient of performance COP.
An Industrial machine of mass 453.4kg is supported on springs with a static deflection of 0.508cm. If the machine has a rotating unbalanced 0.2303kg.m.
Calculate the mass flow rate of air and the required power input. Consider both constant specific heat and variable specific heat (since the temperature change is significant).
The plate is heated over its total length to a temperature of 55 °C. The fluid velocity is measured 30 cm from the edge of the plate and found to be 22.5 m/s. Is the flow laminar or turbulent? J
Two cylinders are filled with liquid water, ? = 1000 kg/m3, and connected by a line with a closed valve. A has 100 kg and B has 500 kg of water, their cross-sectional areas are AA = 0.1 m2 and AB =

Helium at atmospheric pressure and 30 °C flows across a square plate at a free stream velocity of 15 m/s. Calculate the boundary layer thickness at a position where Re = 250,000.
Air at 1 atm and 30 °C flows over a 15 cm square plate at a velocity of 10 m/s. Calculate the maximum boundary layer thickness.
The air is now compressed to 0.1 m3in such a way that the temperature inside the cylinder remains constant. Determine the work done during this process.
A well-insulated rigid vessel contains 3kg of saturated liquid water at 40o C. The vessel also contains an electrical resistor that draws 10 amperes when 50 volts are applied. Determine the fin

he exit quality is 90% at 1 bar and average flow speed of 50 m/s, at a height of 50 cm above the datum. Determine the following:the change in potential energy per unit mass in kJ/kg
A piston, mp= 5 kg, is fitted in a cylinder, A = 15 cm2, that contains a gas. The setup is in a centrifuge that creates an acceleration of 25 m/s2 in the direction of piston motion towards the gas.
What is the resulting steady flow now? How does the vector diagram change? Is it physically sensible (e.g., has friction reduced the speed of the flow)?
