A turbojet aircraft is flying with a velocity of 280 m/s at an altitude of 9150 m, where the ambient conditions are 32 kPa and -32C. The pressure ratio across the compressor is 12, and the temperature at the turbine inlet is 1100 K. Air enters the compressor at a rate of 50 kg/s, and the jet fuel has a heating value of 42,700 kJ/kg. Assume constant specific heats for air at room temperature. Efficiency of the compressor is 80%, efficiency of the turbine is 85%. Assume air leaves diffuser with negligibly small velocity.
determine
(a) The velocity of the exhaust gases.
(b) The rate of fuel consumption.

Ashielded metal arc-welding operation is accomplished in a work cell by a fitter and a welder. the fitter takes 5.5 min to load components into the welding fixture at the beginning of the work cycle, and 1.5 min to unload the completed weldment at the end of the cycle. the total ength of the weld seams 1200 mm, and the travel speed used by the welder averages 300 mm/min. every 600 mm of seam length, the welding stick must be changed, which takes 0.8 min. while the fitter is working, the welder is idle (resting): and while the welder is working the fitter is idle. (a) determine the average arc-on time as a fraction of the work cycle time. (b) how much improvement in arc-on time would result if the welder used flux-cored arc welding (manually operated), given that the spool of weld wire must be changed every 10 weldments, and it takes the welder 5.0 min to accomplish the change? (c) what are the production rates for these two cases (weldments completed per hour)? attach your work and solutions.
