What is the normal and critical depth in a rectangular, concrete-lined channel, with b=2 m wide, X= 0.001 m/m, and Q= 1 m3/s? Assume a spillway is to be placed in this channel and the spillway will raise the flow depth 0.15 m. How far upstream will flow depth be equal the normal depth (backwater curve). The backwater curve must be presented in form of Excel spreadsheet and graphically showing the water-surface-profile-computation and the energy grade line. To compute the water-surface-profile use a value of the 1 cm of difference between Δx depths.

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

An air conditioning system consist of a 5 cm diameter pipe, operating at a pressure of 200 kpa. the air initially enters the pipe at 15°c with a velocity of 20 m/s and relative humidity of 80%. if the heat supply throughout the process is 960 w, determine the relative humidity and the temperature at the outlet

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
