A rapid sand filter has a loading rate of 8.00 m/h, surface dimensions of , an effective filtration rate of 7.70 m/h, and a production efficiency of 96 percent. A complete filter cycle duration is 52 h and the filter is rinsed for 20 minutes at the start of each cycle

Required:
a. What flow rate (m3/s) does the filter handle during production?
b. What volume of water is needed for backwashing plus rinsing the filter in each filter cycle?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: hello there is a Missing information below is the missing information

surface dimensions of  10m * 8m

answer :

a) 640 m^3/hr

b) 1334.66 m^3

Explanation:

a) Determine the flow rate ( m^3/s ) of the filter handle

Va = Q /A[tex]_{f}[/tex]

where ; Va = filtration rate ( 8.00 m/h ) ,  Q = flow rate of filter handle , A[tex]_{f}[/tex] = surface area ( 10 m * 8 m  )

Q = 8 * ( 10m * 8m ) = 640 m^3 / hr

b) Determine the volume of water needed for backwashing plus rinsing the filter in each filter cycle

Лf = 0.96  ( production efficiency )

Vb + Vr = 0.04 Vf

∴ Vf  =  ( Vb + Vr ) / 0.04  ------ ( 1 )

next step ; determine the volume of filtered water making use of effective filtration rate

Ref = ( Vf - Vb - Vr ) / A[tex]_{f}[/tex]T[tex]_{c}[/tex]

therefore : Vb + Vr = Vf - ( 80 * 52 * 7.7 ) ----  ( 2 )

Input equation 1 into 2

Vb + Vr = ( ( Vb + Vr ) / 0.04  )  - 32032  ---- ( 3 )

Resolve equation 3

hence the Volume of water needed for Backwashing  and rinsing the filter in each filter cycle

= 1334.66 m^3

Unit of rate of heat transfer

Answers

Answer:

The units on the rate of heat transfer are Joule/second, also known as a Watt.

Explanation:

Heat flow is calculated using the rock thermal conductivity multiplied by the temperature gradient. The standard units are mW/m2 = milli Watts per meter squared. Thus, think of a flat plane 1 meter by 1 meter and how much energy is transferred through that plane is the amount of heat flow.

hope it helps .

stay safe healthy and happy..

The rate of heat transfer is measured in Joules per second, also known as Watts.

What is heat transfer?

Heat transfer is a thermal engineering discipline that deals with the generation, use, conversion, and exchange of thermal energy between physical systems.

Heat transfer mechanisms include thermal conduction, thermal convection, thermal radiation, and energy transfer via phase changes.

The rate of heat transfer through a unit thickness of material per unit area per unit temperature difference is defined as thermal conductivity. Thermal conductivity varies with temperature and is measured experimentally.

Heat is typically transferred in a combination of these three types and occurs at random. Heat transfer rate is measured in Joules per second, also known as Watts.

Thus, Joules per second or watts is the unit of rate of heat transfer.

In a tension test of steel, the ultimate load was 13,100 lb and the elongation was 0.52 in. The original diameter of the specimen was 0.50 in. and the gage length was 2.00 in. Calculate (a) the ultimate tensile stress (b) the ductility of the material in terms of percent elongation

Answers

Answer:

a) the ultimate tensile stress is 66717.8 psi

b) the ductility of the material in terms of percent elongation is 26%

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

ultimate load P = 13,100 lb

elongation δl = 0.52 in

diameter of specimen d = 0.50 in

gage length l = 2.00 inch

First we determine the cross-sectional area of the specimen

A = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex] × d²

we substitute

A = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}[/tex] × ( 0.50 )²

A = 0.1963495 in²

a) the ultimate tensile stress σ[tex]_u[/tex]

tensile stress σ[tex]_u[/tex] = P / A

we substitute

tensile stress σ[tex]_u[/tex] = 13,100 / 0.1963495

tensile stress σ[tex]_u[/tex] = 66717.766 ≈ 66717.8 psi

Therefore, the ultimate tensile stress is 66717.8 psi

b) ductility of the material in terms of percent elongation;

percentage elongation of specimen = [change in length / original length]100

% = [ δl / l ]100

we substitute

% = [ 0.52 in / 2.00 in ]100

= [ 0.26 ]100

= 26

Therefore, the ductility of the material in terms of percent elongation is 26%

Answers

Answer: hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing detail  

answer :

Complex power = 2.5 ∠ 50°  VA

apparent power = 2.5 VA

average power = 1.6 Watts

reactive power = 1.915 Var

power factor = 0.64 ( leading )

Explanation:

i) complex power

P = Vrms *  Irms

  = 17.67∠40°  * 0.1414∠-10°

  = 2.5∠50° VA

ii) Apparent power

s = Vrms * Irms

  = 17.67 * 0.1414

  = 2.5 VA

iii) Average power absorbed

Absorbed power ( p )  = Vrms * Irms * cos∅

  = 17.67 * 0.1414  * cos ( 50 )

  = 1.6 watt

iv) Reactive power

P =  Vrms * Irms * sin∅

  = 17.67 * 0.1414  * sin ( 50 )

  = 1.915 VAR

v) power factor

P.F = cos ∅ = p /s

                   = 1.6 watt / 2.5 VA  = 0.64.

The output side of an ideal transformer has 35 turns, and supplies 2.0 A to a 24-W device. Ifthe input is a standard wall outlet, calculate the number of turns on the input side, and the currentdrawn from the outlet.

Answers

Answer:

The current drawn from the outlet is 0.2 A

The number of turns on the input side is 350 turns

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the secondary coil, Ns = 35 turns

the output current, [tex]I_s[/tex] = 2 A

power supplied, [tex]P_s[/tex] = 24 W

the standard wall outlet in most homes = 120 V = input voltage

For an ideal transformer; output power = input power

the current drawn from the outlet is calculated;

[tex]I_pV_p = P_s\\\\I_p = \frac{P_s}{V_p} = \frac{24}{120} = 0.2 \ A[/tex]

The number of turns on the input side is calculated as;

[tex]\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{I_s}{I_p} \\\\N_p = \frac{N_sI_s}{I_p} \\\\N_p = \frac{35 \times 2}{0.2} \\\\N_p = 350 \ turns[/tex]
