Hi All
I understand this may be really simple stuff but please bear with me, I'm new to this course and really need help with the following:
a) If a cylinder is required to overcome a force of 2.5 tonne with a working pressure of 210 bar, what diameter of cylinder is required if the piston rod is 20mm in diameter?
b) if the cylinder above is to extend at a rate of 50mm per second, what flow rate will be required from the pump in litres per minute?
c) The volume of a gas is 0.48m³ at a pressure of 635 kPa, if the pressure is then decreased to 125 kPa but the temp maintained at a constant level what will its volume change to?
d) State the thermodynamic law used and also state an alternative?
e) Plot a graph with info obtained in part 'C' (I could do this if i understood where/how to get the data obviously)
f) explain 2 applications in real industrial systems of the 3 basic gas laws you have used for calculations , give examples?
If anyone is able to help with this it would be greatly appreciated, If it possible to show how you got the answers as well as i would like to learn this stuff as opposed to just using someone else's answers.
Thanks
