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).
A liquid comes out of the reactor of a chemical plant at 250 °C temperature with a flow rate of 100 LPM. The ambient temperature is 25 °C. Density and specific heat of the liquid remain constant at 1000 kg/m3 and 4.18 kJ/kg K, respectively, for the given range of temperature. The rate of exergy associated with the hot liquid stream at the exit of the plant is ________ kW (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
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 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).
A welded square plate of 1 m \(\times\) 1 m is subjected to biaxial stress of magnitude 6.5 MPa and 25 MPa, as shown in the figure below. The ratio of the normal stress acting in the perpendicular direction of the weld to the shear stress of the weld is ________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
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.
