Achimney 100 ft high is being forced to vibrate at a frequency f in a wind of 20 ft/s by vortices that are shed in its wake. this phenomenon depends on the fluid density rho and viscosity μ and the chimney material modulus of elasticity e, where e-stress/strain a model is constructed which is geometrically similar to the chimney in every way and is 10 ft high. the mass per unit length, m, of chimney model can be adjusted by attaching dummy masses inside without affecting its elastic behavior. gravity is not involved in this problem. (a) using dimensional analysis derive all relevant nondimensional groups. try to use phys- ically meaningful nondimensional groups wherever possible. make sure these groups are independent. (b) if the full-scale chimney is made from steel with a modulus of elasticity e 30 x 106 lbs/in2, find the necessary modulus of elasticity so as to simulate the correct conditions at the model scale. (c) at what frequency would you expect the full scale chimney to vibrate if the model vibrates at 5 hz? 7.9(b) 30 x 108 lbs/in2, (c) 0.05 h2

An external consultant recommends that a plant installs a bank of capacitors for power factor correction. this will reduce the peak electrical demand charges by an average of 93 kw every month. the plant current pays $13 per kw in peak demand charges. the capacitor bank will include 223 kw of fixed capacitors, and 183 of variable capacitors. the fixed capacitors cost $59 per kw, and the variable capacitors will cost $65 per kw. the consultant charges 21% of the equipment costs to install the capacitors. because this project will reduce the demand for the electric utility, they are prepared to provide a one-time rebate of $42 per kw of reduced demand. what is the simple payback period for this project (in years)?
