GATE 2014 CY Question Paper with Answer Key PDFs (February 2-Forenoon Session)
The inventory holding cost of an item is Rs. \(0.50\) per unit per month and the ordering cost per order is Rs. \(550\). A stockist needs to supply \(10000\) units of the item per year to the customers. Assume demand is fixed and the shortage cost is infinite. Using the classical economic order quantity (EOQ) model, the optimal lot size is ________ units per order (rounded off to the nearest integer).
A rigid closed vertical cylindrical vessel of 15 cm diameter contains 5 kg water at 80 °C with 10% quality. The water is heated till its temperature reaches 130 °C. Considering only a horizontal separated interface between liquid and vapor, the dip in the liquid level after the heating process is ________ cm (rounded off to 2 decimal places). Properties of water at various saturation temperatures are given in the table below.

T, v, and u are temperature, specific volume, and specific internal energy, respectively. Subscripts f and g represent saturated liquid and saturated vapor, respectively.
Convective heat transfer coefficients for Fluid 1 and Fluid 2 in a heat exchanger, as shown in the figure below, are 50 W/(m2K) and 80 W/(m2K), respectively. The inner tube is made of a material which has a thermal conductivity 386 W/(m K) for the given range of temperatures in the heat exchanger. The length of the heat exchanging surface, the inside radius of the inner tube, and thickness of the inner tube are 1 m, 10 mm, and 1 mm, respectively. Considering no heat exchange between the outer tube and the surrounding, the heat transfer rate for the heat exchanger is ________ W (rounded off to 1 decimal place).
A metal has an FCC crystal structure with a density of \(2.71\) g/cm\(^3\) and atomic weight of \(26.98\) g/mol. Avogadro's number is \(6.023 \times 10^{23}\). The atomic radius of the metal is ________ nm (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
In a deep drawing operation of a rectangular sheet metal, \(30\%\) stretching in length results in \(15\%\) reduction in thickness. Assuming volume constancy, the normal anisotropy of the sheet metal is ________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
Water with a density of 1000 kg/m3 comes out of an industrial condenser through a horizontal pipe of 15 cm radius at the flow rate of 4.5 m3/min. The outlet of the pipe is connected to a coaxial diffuser of 0.5 m length using a flange to raise the pressure of water to atmospheric condition without any backflow. The inner radius (\(r\), in m) of the diffuser cross-section is expressed as
\[ r = 0.15 + 0.4x^2 \]
where, \(x\) represents the axial distance of the diffuser in m, from its inlet. Considering frictionless flow, the magnitude of the force exerted by the diffuser on the flange is ________ N (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
