Astudent team is to design a human-powered submarine for a design competition. the overall length of the prototype submarine is 4.85 m, and its student designers hope that it can travel fully submerged through water at 0.44 m/s. the water is at t = 15c. the design team builds a one-fifth scale model to test in their university wind tunnel. a shield surrounds the drag balance strut that the aerodynamic drag of the strut itself does not influence the measured drag. the air is 25c and at one standard atmosphere pressure.

at what air speed do they need to run the wind tunnel in order to achieve similarity?

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
