A community is considering switching from coal-fired power plants to using wind energy to generate electricity. In order to decide what type of wind turbine is best for the area, an investigation was conducted to compare the amount of electricity generated using different blade lengths. A series of wind turbines were assembled at a location near the community and tested to compare the amount of electricity each wind turbine could produce. Care was taken to make certain that each turbine was positioned to be exposed to the same wind direction and speed. (h) Other than positioning the turbines to be exposed to the same wind direction and speed, identify one variable that would have been held constant in the investigation.

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?
