Refrigerant 134a is the working fluid in a solar power operating on a Rankine cycle. Saturated vapor at (61+0.3*A) o C enters the turbine, and condenser operates at a pressure of 6 bar. The rate of energy input to collectors from solar radiation is 0.4 kW per m2 of collector surface area. Determine the minimum possible solar collector surface area in m2 , per kW of power developed by the plant.

Which of the following is an easy way to remember the modified “x” tire rotation? a. nondrive wheels straight, cross the drive wheels b. drive wheels straight, cross the nondrive wheels c. drive wheels crossed, nondrive wheels straight d. drive wheels crossed, nondrive wheels crossed

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.
