7–115 Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrig- erator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.8-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 5 m/s. The tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of S L = S T = 1.5 cm. There are 25 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. Determine (a) the refrigeration capac- ity 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?

Afan that can provide air speeds up to 60 m/s is to be used in a low-speed wind tunnel with atmospheric air at 35 c. if one wishes to use the wind tunnel to study flat-plate boundary layer behavior up to reynolds numbes of re 10, what is the minimum plate length that should be used? at what distance from the leading edge would transition occur if the critical reynolds nurnber were rer,e = 5 × 105?

Acompressor compresses a gas, a pump compresses a liquid. for a given pressure ratio, why does it take more work to compress a gas in a compressor than a liquid in a pump? a)- for a given pressure ratio the average specific volume for a gas is much higher than the average specific volume for a liquid. b)- there is no difference. the only difference is the amount of heat generated (not work) c)- for a given pressure ratio the average volurge for a gas is much higher than the average volume for a liquid. d)-there is no difference
