Solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations numerically is a unique challenge because of the absence of direct link between pressure and density. As a workaround, the pressure equation must be derived from the velocity field and corrected in each iteration to ensure divergence free condition is satisfied.

Marker-and-cell (MAC) algorithm is the most common algorithm used to numerically solve in compressible Navier-Stokes equations. What is the main characteristic of this algorithm?

Apiston-cylinder with a volume of 0.25 m3 holds 1 kg of air (r 0.287 k/kgk) at a temperature of 100 c. heat transfer to the cylinder causes an isothermal expansion of the piston until the volume triples. how much heat is added to the piston-cylinder?

For the closed feedwater heater below, feedwater enters state 3 at a pressure of 2000 psia and temperature of 420 °f at a rate of ix10 ibhr. the feedwat extracted steam enters state 1 at a pressure of 1000 psia and enthalpy of 1500 btu/lbm. the extracted er leaves at an enthalpy of 528.7 btu/lbm steam leaves as a saturated liquid. (16) a) determine the mass flow rate of the extraction steam used to heat the feedwater (10) b) determine the terminal temperature difference of the closed feedwater heater
