Determine the thickness of the viscous sublayer in a smooth 8-in.-diameter pipe if the reynoldsnumber is 25,000.

In general, how do thermosetting plastics compare to thermoplastics in mechanical and physical properties?

Aheat pump with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep a space at 25°c by absorbing heat from geothermal water that enters the evaporator at 500c at a rate of 0.065 kg/s and leaves at 40°c. the refrigerant enters the evaporator at 20°c with a quality of 23 percent and leaves at the inlet pressure as saturated vapor. the refrigerant loses 300 w of heat to the surroundings as it flows through the compressor and the refrigerant leaves the compressor at 1.4 mpa at the same entropy as the inlet. determine: (a) the degrees of subcooling of the refrigerant in the condenser, b)-the mass flow rate of the refrigerant . (c) the heating load and the cop of the pump, and d)-the theoretical minimum power input to the compressor for the same heating load.

At steady state, air enters an insulated duct of varying cross-sectional area (similar to a nozzle or diffuser) at 200 kpa, 52°c with a mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa, the velocity is 255 m/s, and the cross-sectional area is 2 x 10-3 m^2. assuming an ideal gas model, determine: a)-find the specific volume of the air at the exit, in m3/kg. b)- the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. c)-the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. d)-the inlet cross-sectional area, in m^2.
