A wastewater treatment plant treats 20 MGD of wastewater containing 950 mg/L of suspended solids in a primary clarifier that has a 20% suspended solids removal efficiency. The rate of sludge collection, the flow rate out the bottom of the clarifier, is 0.08 MGD.
a) What is the solids concentration (in mg/L) in the sludge leaving the clarifier?
b) What mass of solids (in kg/y) is removed annually by the primary clarifier?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 47500 mg/L

b) 5250366.444  kg/year

Explanation:

Given data:

suspended solids removal efficiency = 20%

Flowrate in the primary clarifier ( Q ) = 20 MGD ( change to Liters/day

Q = 20* 10^6 * 3.785412  Liters /day

settled concentration  ( St ) = 950mg/L * 0.2 = 190 mg/L

amount of settled solid = Q * St

                                   = ( 20* 10^6 * 3.785412 ) * 190  = 14384.5656 kg/day

∴ Amount going into sludge with a flowrate of 0.08 MGD = 14384.5656 kg/day

a) concentration of solid in sludge  ( leaving the clarifier )

= amount of settled solid / flow rate out of the clarifier in liters/day

= 14384.5656 / ( 0.08 * 10^6 * 3.785412 )

= 0.0475 kg/L

= 47500 mg/L

b) Determine mass of solids that is removed annually

= 14384.5656 kg/day * 365 days

= 5250366.444  kg/year

A steel plate of width 120mm and thickness of 20mm is bent into a circular arc radius of 10. You are required to calculate the maximum stress induced and the bending moment which will give the maximum stress. You are given that E=2*10^5​

Answers

Answer:

Hence the magnitude of the pure moment m will be [tex]2\times 10^5.[/tex]

Explanation:

 Width of steel fleet = 120 mm   The thickness of steel fleet = 10 mm   Let the circle of radius = 10 m  

Now,

We know that,

[tex]\frac{M}{I} = \frac{E}{R}[/tex]

Thus, [tex]M =\frac{EI}{R}[/tex]

Here

R = 10000 mm  

[tex]I=\frac{1}{12}\times 120\times 10^{3}\\= 10^{4} mm^{4}[/tex]

[tex]E=2\times 10^{5}n/mm^{2}\\\\E=2\times 10^{5}n/mm^{2}\\\\M={(2\times 10^{5}\times 10^{4})/{10000}}\\\\M=2\times 10^{5}[/tex]

 

Hence, the magnitude of the pure moment m will be [tex]2\times 10^5.[/tex]

A machine component is loaded so that stresses at the critical location are σ1 = 20 ksi, σ2 = -15 ksi, and σ3 = 0. The material is ductile, with yield strengths in tension and compression of 60 ksi. What is the safety factor according to (a) the maximum normal-stress theory, (b) the maximum-shear-stress theory, and (c) the maximum distortion-energy theory?

Answers

Answer:

a) the safety factor according to the maximum normal-stress theory; n = 3

b) the safety factor according to the maximum-shear-stress theory; n = 1.714

c) the safety factor according to the maximum distortion-energy theory is; n = 1.97278

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) What is the safety factor according to the maximum normal-stress theory;

According to the maximum normal-stress theory

n = S[tex]_y[/tex] / σ[tex]_{max[/tex]

since σ₁ = 20 ksi is greater than σ₂ = -15 ksi

σ[tex]_{max[/tex] = 20 ksi and yield strengths in tension and compression S[tex]_y[/tex] = 60 ksi

we substitute

n = 60 ksi / 20 ksi

n = 3

Therefore, the safety factor according to the maximum normal-stress theory; n = 3

b) What is the safety factor according to the maximum-shear-stress theory.

According to maximum-shear-stress theory;

τ[tex]_{max[/tex] = [(σ₁ - σ₂) / 2]

= S[tex]_y[/tex] / 2n

n = S[tex]_y[/tex] / 2[(σ₁ - σ₂) / 2]

n = S[tex]_y[/tex] / (σ₁ - σ₂)

we substitute

n = 60 ksi  / (20 ksi - (-15 ksi))

n = 60 ksi  / (20 ksi +15 ksi)

n = 60 ksi  / 35 ksi

n = 1.714

Therefore, the safety factor according to the maximum-shear-stress theory; n = 1.714

c) the safety factor according to the maximum distortion-energy theory?

By distortion energy theory

σ₁² + σ₂² - σ₁σ₂ = (S[tex]_y[/tex]/n)²

we substitute

(20)² + (-15)² - ( 20 × -15 ) = ( 60 / n )²

400 + 225 + 300 = 3600 / n²

925 =  3600 / n²

n² = 3600 / 925

n = √( 3600 / 925 )

n = 1.97278

Therefore, the safety factor according to the maximum distortion-energy theory is; n = 1.97278

Determine (a) the principal stresses and (b) the maximum in-plane shear stress and average normal stress at the point. Specify the orientation of the element in each case. 60 45 30

Answers

Answer:

a) 53 MPa,  14.87 degree

b) 60.5 MPa  

Average shear = -7.5 MPa

Explanation:

Given

A = 45

B = -60

C = 30

a) stress P1 = (A+B)/2 + Sqrt ({(A-B)/2}^2 + C)

Substituting the given values, we get -

P1 = (45-60)/2 + Sqrt ({(45-(-60))/2}^2 + 30)

P1 = 53 MPa

Likewise P2 = (A+B)/2 - Sqrt ({(A-B)/2}^2 + C)

Substituting the given values, we get -

P1 = (45-60)/2 - Sqrt ({(45-(-60))/2}^2 + 30)

P1 = -68 MPa

Tan 2a = C/{(A-B)/2}

Tan 2a = 30/(45+60)/2

a = 14.87 degree

Principal stress

p1 = (45+60)/2 + (45-60)/2 cos 2a + 30 sin2a = 53 MPa

b) Shear stress in plane

Sqrt ({(45-(-60))/2}^2 + 30) = 60.5 MPa

Average = (45-(-60))/2 = -7.5 MPa

The following true stresses produce the corresponding true plastic strains for a brass alloy: True Stress (psi) True Strain 49300 0.11 61300 0.21 What true stress is necessary to produce a true plastic strain of 0.25

Answers

Answer:

64640.92 psi

Explanation:

True stress ( psi )       True strain

49300                          0.11

61300                           0.21

Determine the true stress necessary to produce a true plastic strain of 0.25

бT1 = 49300

бT2 = 61300

бT3 = ?

∈T1 = 0.11

∈T2 = 0.21

∈T3  = 0.25

note : бTi = k ∈Ti^h

∴ 49300 = k ( 0.11 )^h ----- ( 1 )

   61300 = k ( 0.21)^h ------ ( 2 )

solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously

49300/61300 = ( 0.11 / 0.21 )^h

0.804 = (0.52 )^h

next step : apply logarithm

log  ( 0.804 ) = log(0.52)^h

h = log 0.804 /  log (0.52)

  =  0.33

back to equation 1

49300 = k ( 0.11 )^0.33

k = 49300 / (0.11)^0.33

 = 102138

therefore бT3 = K (0.25)^h

                        = 102138 ( 0.25 )^ 0.33  

                         = 64640.92

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A centrifugal pump is used to extract water from a reservoir at 14,000 gal/min. The pipe connecting the pump inlet to the reservoir is 12 inches in diameter and is 65 ft long.

The average friction factor in this pipe is 0.018. The pump performance curves indicate that, at this flow rate, the head rise across the pump is 320 ft, the efficiency is 81% and the required NPSH is 25 ft.

Please estimate: The required brake horsepower.

Answer:

The required brake horsepower is 1400.08

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Power required to drive the pump can be determined using the formula;

P = r[tex]_w[/tex]QH / η₀(0.745)

given that; centrifugal pump is used to extract water from a reservoir at 14,000 gal/min.

Q = 14,000 gal/min = ( 14,000 × 0.00006309 )m³/sec = 0.883 m³/sec

the head rise across the pump is 320 ft,

H = 320 ft = ( 320 × 0.3048 )m = 97.536 m

the efficiency η₀ = 81% = 0.81

r[tex]_w[/tex] = 9.81 kN/m³

so we substitute our values into the formula

P = [ 9.81 × 0.883 × 97.536 ] / 0.81(0.745)

P = 844.87926528 / 0.60345

P = 1400.08 HP

Therefore, The required brake horsepower is 1400.08

A long power transmission cable is buried at a depth (ground-to-cable-centerline distance) of 2 m. The cable is encased in a thin-walled pipe of 0.1-m diameter, and, to render the cable superconducting (with essentially zero power dissipation), the space between the cable and pipe is filled with liquid nitrogen at 77 K. If the pipe is covered with a super insulator (ki = 0.005 W/mK) of 0.05-m thickness and the surface of the earth (kg = 1.2 W/mK) is at 300 K, what is the cooling load (W/m) that must be maintained by a cryogenic refrigerator per unit pipe length?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]q=9.9w/m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Ground-to-cable-center line Distance [tex]d_g=2m[/tex]

Diameter of Cable case [tex]d=0.1m[/tex]

Temperature of Nitrogen [tex]T_n=77K[/tex]

Insulator [tex]ki = 0.005 W/mK[/tex]

Thickness [tex]t=0.05[/tex]

Mass [tex]kg = 1.2 W/mK[/tex]

Temperature of earth surface [tex]T_e=300K[/tex]

Generally the equation for Heat rate per unit length is mathematically given by

 [tex]q=\frac{T_g-T_n}{R_g+R_e}[/tex]

Where

 [tex]R_g=[kg(\frac{2\pi}{(in4d_g/d_x)}]^{_1}[/tex]

 [tex]R_g=[(1.2)(\frac{2\pi}{(in4(2)/0.2)}]^{-1}[/tex]

 [tex]R_g=0.489[/tex]

And

 [tex]R_e=\frac{In(\frac{D_0}{D_1})}{2\pi ki}[/tex]

 [tex]R_e=\frac{In(2)}{2*3.142 0.005}[/tex]

 [tex]R_e=22.1[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]q=\frac{223}{0.489+22.064}[/tex]

 [tex]q=9.9w/m[/tex]
