A water treatment plant processes 30,000 cubic meters of water each day. A square rapid-mix tank with vertical baffles and flat impeller blades will be used. The design detention time and velocity gradient are 30 seconds and 900 s-1 Determine the power input, if the temperature of the water is 20°C. µ = 1 x 10-3 kg/m•s. 1kW = 1000 J/s, 1J = 1N•m = 1 kg•m2/s2. Note: you can use the equation in its current version.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.

Carbon dioxide gas expands isotherm a turbine from 1 mpa, 500 k at 200 kpa. assuming the ideal gas model and neglecting the kinetic and potential energies, determine the change in entropy, heat transfer and work for each kilogram of co2.

Manometers are good examples of measuring instruments, nowadays they are not as common as before. a)-capacitive probe gauges b)-gravitational gauges deformation ) gauges d)-digital gauges
